How soon is too soon to talk about health problems?

Question

I've been talking to this guy for about a month or so. The other day he told me he thinks we're moving too fast. Since he said that he's been off and in feeling even worse with the whole thing. In the past I've had issues with depression and cutting, and ive been completely down in the dumps. Would it be wrong to tell him where I'm coming from and why I'm feeling the way I do, or is too soon to tell him about my past and how it all relates to this?

Answer

Way too soon. You may scare him away. I was dating a guy for a few weeks when I was a teenager and mistakenly told him I was on antidepressants. He ran for the hills! :/

Answer

I think too soon, confide in close friends and family for now or a counseller

Answer

I was diagnosed with depression when I was 12 so I've had a lot of experience with telling guys. I don't recommend telling them until the relationship is serious. When you're first getting to know someone, an issue like that can be scary, especially if they don't know much about depression or mental health. I have found that once you know each other well and are serious, guys aren't as easily scared because they know you're not "crazy" or "sick".

Answer

He may think you're pressuring him to stay close and that could make him run away. Be patient for a little longer, until you're positive it's okay to tell him :)

Answer

Way to soon and not at the right moment In your relationship. I feel like that will end up scaring him or pressuring him somehow.

Answer

Yeah to soon, and it's to soon to be dating.. Should work on getting yourself better and happy before getting with someone.. The worst thing to bring to a relationship is depending on someone else for your good moods or feelings

Answer

To soon.  I would wait until things have progressed much farther.  Telling him where you are coming from only helps in a serious relationship.  Until then it could scare someone off.
