My husband knows and my MIL knows about my bipolar. They live with me. Most of my family doesn't know outside of that.

I have my friends here on PC who know and I have one RL friends who knows, she is also bipolar and we support each other.

My work knows I have bipolar because I disclosed when I was first diagnosed, but they are not understanding of it.

I don't feel any shame for having bipolar. I feel bad for some of things I have done, but in an "I'm sorry" kind of way. The reason I don't share it around to everyone is because people get discriminatory, and I have faced that at work and conflict tends to send me over the edge, so I try to keep things calm around me.
