Am I required to release this type of information ? The hospital I've been hired at, is the same one I was admitted as a patient. :/

You are not required to release that information. Remember HIPPA? No one else is allowed to release the information either. No one will know except for anyone who treated you and if those people tell anyone they could literally go to jail.

And please don't call yourself stupid for a suicide attempt. You are a survivor.
