I'm not familiar with your condition, but I think it's not something that would harm him (like STD)....
Personally....I would have waited till I'm sure in my relationship and then I will tell....and if he's the one, he would accept your condition....
don't worry too much about it and stay cool about it....enjoy your relationship

Thanks, marjan.

You're right that this is personal information, and unlike a condition like depression trichotillomania (compulsive hair-pulling) is something that few people have heard of so it would take a lot of explaining.

He can be a bit "logical" about solving problems sometimes, which is not normally a bad thing but I would hate for him to react like my dad and tell me that if I don't like doing it then I should just stop - it's not that simple!
On the other hand, though, he has a cousin with ADHD and a celebrity he's a huge fan of is bipolar, so he's not completely unfamiliar with mental health issues. Also, he's already trusted me with a pretty big piece of information relating to his dad and his family, although this has meant that he's got quite a lot to worry about himself at the moment.
I don't know...this is where a crystal ball and/or the ability to read minds would come in very handy.
