In the first weeks of a relationship, my mental health struggles, especially with procrastination and avoiding hard tasks due to stress, may become apparent. I'm a young, honest person, so I'm planning to tell my partner what I'm going through emotionally and mentally, including the traumas I have and the toxic environment I come from, with narcissistic parents.
