I can try to explain it to employers or hide it from them. I've tried both, and it seems like neither works.
How does this come up? If you're bringing it up, I would stop.
My other advice is people looking for new technologies are more comfortable hiring people with little experience. There are lots of guys with 20 years of C++ and perl, but there's very little if any with 3 years of React, or Node. So pick a cool hip new technology and start building cool projects. Then show people your projects through hacker news Show HN.
You'll have a job fairly soon(I would be surprised if it took 6 month).
Also many people are mentioning go back to school. How close are you to finishing and how well did you do in school when you didn't have depression?
