Ask A Therapist: Can Employers Find Out I've Been Hospitalized?

In 2011 I was sent to a Behavioral Center because I tried to kill myself and I was self-harming very badly. I was released after a week and everything was fine. But now I'm trying to get a job and I've applied to many, but every time they fill it with someone who applied after me. I know I'm qualified for the jobs, so I've been wondering if they could see that I had been sent to the health center if I hadn't told them? Please and thank you for your time.

A: Thanks so much for writing in. Assuming you're in the United States, I don’t believe that your employer would have any way of knowing you have been in a behavioral health center. Our privacy laws are very strict and you would have to give permission to the behavioral center to release those records to the employer.
