I had to find a job after about six months of being unemployed. For a portion of that time I was hospitalized.
I wouldn't recommend revealing your condition. I was able to obtain a job through a family member's recommendation. The job was far beneath my skill level but it helped me get up in the morning and rediscover how to interact with people. I would suggest that you contact an employment agency and explain that you were a student or homemaker or caring for disabled family member.
This is going to be difficult. I made to the career I was educated for after a year of doing what I considered menial labor but it required the support of friends and family members. I hope that you have a support network available to you.
