Appeal it. I won a 'for cause' firing because the company didn't have anything concrete and I didn't actually break any rules.

Like the previous poster says, constructive dismissal in CA:
"In order to establish a constructive discharge, an employee must plead and prove, by the usual preponderance of the evidence standard, that the employer either intentionally created or knowingly permitted working conditions that were so intolerable or aggravated at the time of the employee's resignation that a reasonable employer would realize that a reasonable person in the employee's position would be compelled to resign." (Wiki)

I don't tell anyone at work about my home life.

Treat it like an acting gig. You go there to play a role.

If you can't do that...you probably shouldn't be working until your problems are under control.
This. I'm pretty social with my coworkers, but we don't share everything. If you have mental disorders and alcoholism, you probably shouldn't share that..

The best thing to do is show up in court. In my experience, most employers don't actually show, so the case defaults to you. If not, protect yourself with the disability discrimination poo poo. After that, it is he said/she said. Thankfully, judges tend to favor the person seeking unemployment.

So, show up, look nice, be ready to defend yourself and it should be OK.
Court? Should be a phone call with a judge, no?

If you had a new job, why were you in court for unemployment?
You just wrote off your credibility on anything UI related. Jesus. Really?
