I used to be very open about it, but it bit me in the butt when I got divorced and my ex and his friends ganged up on me and tried to pull a custody suit. My ex's friend even went so far as to call my first ex, the father of my oldest son to tell him to fight for custody of my oldest son. He almost did that over the summer.

I think in the right context, when you have support around you that it is a great idea to be open because then when you need support people will be there. I have to be careful, and at the moment, I am not speaking openly about it.
