There is still so much stigmatism. I share information about myself with those I feel close to and who have some understanding and just plain unconditional love. I have shared a little at work. Mostly to show a good example of how someone that has struggles with mental health problems is taking care of herself and how much happier I am with myself and the world around me. We work with individuals that struggle with their issues - I am able to emapathize - a lot.
I do not think there is a right or wrong answer - experience will show you what works in your life.
