If you suffer from recurring depression (or any other mental problem), but are being treated and are functional, what's your approach for finding a job?

You'll certainly have some time in your CV that you cannot explain. What's the best: to confess that you have mental issues or some sort of white lie?

Or, should you specifically go into a profession were CVs are not that important, less corporate maybe, something creative, or some area where people work on a project basis.
