would one consider “controlled” OCD/Tourettes, anger issues, hot head, ticks, argumentative, non clinical depression, general sadness etc.. mental disorders that should be disclosed? Or are those things obvious and should not need a “formal” introduction to scare the potential shidduch off?
btw always consider how you would handle it if it were in reverse. Would you be able to deal with these issues? Many times people can accept and overlook certain issues without a problem if they are ok with the rest of “you”. Things do need to be disclosed beforehand if they might cause an issue. There should be ways of disclosing in more casual manner rather than scaring someone off especially if disclosed by a shadchan.
