I as the sponsor have been diagnosed with agoraphobia, bulimia and depression and was wondering if this falls under this question, especially since it is lined up with a bunch of other very serious questions. Are they looking for serious mental disorders or ANY mental disorder?

Would consider these serious disorders.

It's not an issue for a sponsor as long as you have an income, even the income itself is not of an issue in a spousal sponsorship.

You have to declare your medical issues as serious medical issues. Medical inadmissibility is not a consideration for spousal sponsorship like it is for things like economic immigration. The only thing that could happen is a delay in processing. Would include a letter of explanation if there were accommodations due to on your health. Healthcare in the US is not great especially mental healthcare but it is extremely strained in a Canada. I hope you or your spouse have jobs or are looking for jobs that include an extended health benefit plan and are also budgeting for out of pocket healthcare expenses. I would also try to get a realistic idea of how difficult will it be to secure a GP.
