This is why I open up earlier. Not at the first date or something, but at most a few months in.

You will eventually open up, and if it grosses your partner out to the point of ruining your relationship, you better know now rather than later, when you've spent so much time together and have more to lose.

Heck, start even earlier. Open a few months prior to the relationship!

Good idea! When I was a kid I almost drown in the river. That made me silent for two years from age five to seven, and when I was seven my voice slowly came back to me and I begun speaking again gradually.
