I'm sure it won't, especially as it's in the past. On another forum I've seen loads of people with the same worries and I think what happens is they ask you to have a meeting with occupational health if they think it's necessary, to talk about it, nothing to worry about from what I've heard.
I don't know what happens if it was really severe and you've had to take lots of time off work because of it, etc, but I'm sure someone else on here can help.
Hope that helps.

it won't i have suffered with depression, and have gone on no problem- the occupational health may ask a few questions but if you feel ok to do so, then go ahead
