I have a question about the episode How to Feel Loved & Cherished In Your Relationship | Women of Impact Panel Show and the clip Setting Relationship Boundaries. 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. However, I'm concerned that sharing this with my partner will turn them off, as I've heard from some of my girlfriends that they don't want a whiny boyfriend. Can you explain in detail how to approach this situation and communicate my struggles without pushing my partner away?
