Alternatively, you can explain a resume gap with taken time off to overcome a medical situation (or you can be specific about the mental illness). Whether or not you’ll be discriminated against by individual managers, you won’t know. But if you do get discriminated, then those are probably places that wouldn’t have been healthy for you anyway (or so is my opinion).
There is no alternative but to go through a perspective shift if you want to be on the winning end of the job. Unfortunately fear and lack of confidence are the worst enemies of a winning job situation. Until you are able to tackle those beasts, it’ll be hard to remove that stress.
