<prompt> Human: I was terminated from a previous position. I had severe PTSD non military related for the entire year I was employed there and was constantly battling panic attacks sometimes would have 10 a day, anxiety, etc. My ability to focus at work was obviously compromised by this and as a result I was rightfully fired.After some significant improvement in my health I took a temp job which I have worked the past 10 months. I have an interview to be hired on full time in 2 weeks. Unfortunately at the end of the online job application I had to apply to they asked if I had ever been fired from a job. I answered truthfully so obviously I will have some explaining to do.How should I best explain my termination? Should I say I was struggling with health issues and was unable to perform at the job and leave it at that? When I originally interviewed for this temp job they asked why I left my previous job...I said it was due to health issues. I was not going to volunteer information about my termination unless specifically asked. But this time I cant avoid it as I was asked on the application.  <response>: Leave out PTSD terminology but do address the fact that your circumstances were overwhelming at the time and caused you to lose focus on work. THEN, explain how and why that wont happen again because youve learned how to better cope or whatever. Basically, give them a reason to know it wont happen again. Show them youve learned from it and it wont impact your work in the future.
