Hey, just looking for some advice as it seems this happens whenever I'm interested in somebody. Not sure if it's normal, or if anybody can relate.
I've always dealt with depression since I was a teenager. Between the ages of 21 - 27 my depression got out of control and led to heavy drug and alcohol abuse, alienation from friends and family ect. I realized I had to get help or I knew the road I was going down would lead to death or suicide. So I got help, I got sober, went to therapy, found meds. I have overcome the depression over the last 3 years.
The last year I decided not to date and to work on myself mentally, physically, and repair the years of damage I have done to my self, family, friends, and finances. I'm in the best place I've been in a long time, but I still have lots of work to do.
Why do I feel like I have to tell these girls I date this? I only want to when I know maybe it could go somewhere. I know I'm not doing it to show off like look where I've been and where I'm at now. I feel like I need to tell them because I feel like I am hiding a secret and I don't want to lie to anybody.
It's a pattern I notice and I would appreciate any kind words or insight ! Thank you.
