I don't think most employers even look at that stuff Deneb unless you're getting a job that requires very high security.
I'm currently self employed, but my previous job was at a financial institution and they did EXTENSIVE background checks, they fingerprinted me (sent the prints to the FBI and SEC), and a few other things.
But even with that, I don't think they checked any kind of health issues with me. SO unless you're going to get some kind of James Bond CIA job, I think you're safe. 99% of employers won't even bother to check health/mental issues.
I think they figure unless you walk into the interview with a tin foil hat on and wearing a clown suit, you're sane enough to work there. So don't do that. ;) :p jk I'm sure you're EASILY employable. It shouldn't even be something to worry about. From what I can tell (from reading your posts for nearly a year), you're smart, very nice, and honest. You'll catch some employers eye if you stay optimistic.
