Legal Question in Employment Law in New Jersey

I am a ride operator with severe anxiety and ulcerative colitis. Even with treatment, it is often very hard for me to go into work, and even then I have to use the bathroom often. According to the ADA, employers are required to give reasonable accommodations to employees with disabilities. Am I covered by the ADA, and if so, can I use it to request special hours from my employer?
