After being diagnosed decades ago, only a handful of people know my condition. Many of them no longer are friends shortly after I shared the news with them. What are your thoughts about who to tell and when?

One person shared, "I’m pretty open with my diagnosis around people, but it depends on who you’re comfortable telling. It’s a pretty personal thing, so I’d sit there and think about how it makes you feel knowing you have it. Then maybe make a list of people you’re ok with knowing." Another person suggested, "When I was first diagnosed I got tired of telling people because I felt like i always ended up comforting them…When my now husband and I were dating I told him after only a couple of weeks because the pandemic was starting and I wanted him to understand why I had to be extra careful due to a compromised immune system."
