What do you say when returning a missed call from a potential employer?

I applied for a job at my local bookstore two weeks ago and missed a call from them yesterday. They left a message saying they had reviewed my application and wanted to know if I was still interested in the position, which I am. The person provided their name and mentioned how long they would be available yesterday, but I wasn’t able to return the call immediately due to mental health reasons. Is it too late to call back today? If it’s not, what should I say when I call? This is my first time dealing with this kind of situation, so I’m not sure how to handle it.

Call them back right away. Just apologize and say you left your phone at a friend’s house. That’s it; don’t go on and on about it. Apologize and then just say yes, you are still looking for work.

Call immediately. Say you just got back from a trip and called as soon as you could. Oh, did I say CALL IMMEDIATELY ?

You have to snap out of it. Make that phone call even if you stumble during the conversation. Stop using your mental state as an excuse not to get out there and function like everyone else.
