I think it is fine to make the additional essay about this. It sounds to me that you have thought of the pitfalls of this sort of essay in a smart way, so I think you can pull it off. Clearly your coping strategies are working so you should address how you are able to do that. Are you going about in the world now, as you would in college? You might want to show that so they can picture you at college. Or you might talk about picturing yourself at college.

I’m sorry to hear you have to deal with this terrible condition and I hope you get some relief.

I just posted a great ‘essay that worked’ on a topic that people should generally avoid. Maybe it will give you some inspiration. He also had top grades/scores.
