I had the same problem, asked this question months ago on here. It is a difficult one to answer, yet honesty is always best. But, to me, my mental health is a very personal private issue, not one to display on a dating site. There is to me, no need for someone I was just meeting as a potential boyfriend to know right off the bat. As to what to say about what you do, it could be as simple as "I'm not working right now', and if you see that after a few dates you may have potential for further dates, you should explain the whys of not working. Best wishes to you. All of these answers you have are good. People that would be worth while dating wouldn't judge you on your ptsd or mental health issues. I dated someone once, who also "lied". He put on that he was retired, but the first coffee date he explained he was physically disabled. No one likes everyone to know their personal issues immediately.
