Of course. No one says people with mental illness are monsters or schizophrenia mean split personality. I am just saying one needs to know if one enters serious relationship. It is unfair to let other person to get serious and ambush them then. People have rights to make a choice to date someone with mental illness or not. By not telling them you ( in general not you in particular) aren't giving them that choice.
Overall it's depressing that people might not want to stay with the person but that's the reality of life.
You can't force people to be with you. I once met a guy who didn't want to date women with kids and that's his right but it doesn't mean I had to lie I have children. And once I met a guy who didn't want to date woman older than him. Did it mean I had to lie about my age?
No it just means people have rights to choose who to be with. Not wanting to be with people for whatever reason doesn't make people ignorant ( maybe some but not all), it just means they make their choice
