I would just be honest about everything and tell them what you feel comfortable sharing. A interview is about how you sell yourself as a person and what you can bring to the company. If they ask the questions about the long periods of time in between jobs, tell them that there was a major even in my life that had to be addressed in order for me to be the healthy individual I am today. It has helped shape who I am gave me a lot of time to think about the man and career I want for my life.
If you are battling depression try getting out and doing things with friends. You'll eventually break through and regain some confidence and put the train back on the rails. It takes time and support from people around you. One thing that I learned through my depression after psychotic break is that you are what you conceive yourself to be.
For to long I had no confidence about who I was because I BELIEVED whole-heartedly that I could not speak normal like other people because I didn't have as many thoughts as them or I wasn't as smart as them. Psychosis did this to me and it will never come back..... that it was confidence and hope. I have successfully regained both and I'm ready to build on the foundations of my temporary demise. Say what comes to your mind in an interview and you want a job that wants you and what you can provide. You don't always want to worry about what they think of you. Cause the only thing that matters is what you think of yourself.
