It takes time to find the right meds that work for you. So keep on trying with your doctor. It is also a good idea to go to a psychiatrist because they are better able to deal with the difficulties in finding a good med combo.
For me I tell most people and don't really care if they respond badly, others are more guarded in who they tell. It is your choice as to who to tell, but important people need to know so that they can help you. Remember they may not react as you would like them to, but that's their problem not something about you.
