Should I tell everyone or keep it private?

Got diagnosed last week. Now I'm terrified. If I tell people at work, will they see me differently? If I tell family, will they use it against me? If I keep it quiet, am I lying?

The diagnosis is mine but it doesn't feel safe to own it out loud.

How did you decide who to tell? What did you wish you'd known before you told someone?

Disclosure went fine for me, but I picked the person, not the org. One trustworthy manager beats an HR policy.
