When they notice something is wrong, or they ask.
Another thing is if they fall for you, and it goes further and you can tell they can tell something is off but they don't know what it is.
If they say we need to take this further, you say we need to talk there is something you need to know.
There are far too many people that will walk with less then mental or emotional disorders.
There are far too many people that will walk or not give you a second chance with your clothing choices, food choices, the way you laugh or the way you wear your hair or the size of your clothes.
So if someone finds you good for them to be around. Let them enjoy that. If they ask "is there anything wrong with you, you seem perfect.?" then you might want to say something.
But hon just let them forget themselves and all the worlds troubles and just be with you... And if they walk for anything lesser than your soul, or whats troubling it.? then let them walk, they couldn't handle that.
Besides if you have a mental disorder, they will be able to pick that out if they REALLY care, and if they don't they aren't very observant or they have an agenda.
If you suggest places that aren't around lots of people or you get anxious around lots of people and they ask.? Tell them.. I can't handle being around lots of people, please don't make me.
If they can't handle that, there are plenty of people that can, or friends that can while you find Mr. Right...
All the best. Oh an work on it in the mean time, and in time you won't have any worries to tell anyone about.Health Question & Answer

i wouldn't tell them right away because that will probably scare them away just be yourself and if you act out some of your issues and they ask then you can tell them but if you really have feelings for them and they have feelings for you then they shouldn't care what problems you have.

Definitely wait until they know you/trust you a bit more. Then don't just blurt it out. Say there's something I have to tell you... then say it. Explain you're still you and it's just part of who you are. That you can obviously still function in society and you thought they deserved to know.
Then, just hope they accept it. If not, you're better off without them.Health Question & Answer
