I told one of my close friends about my MD, and they suggested that I tell my family. 

I am extremely afraid of what they would say if I told them. I feel like they wouldn't believe me or take me seriously. Have any of you told your loved ones/family about your MD? If so, how?

I hate to have to keep this a secret from my loved ones..

Even i suggest you tell your parents about it cause they need to know but in both the cases if you tell them or not your not gonna find a solution for this issue i am afraid :( most of all someone would suggest you ways to keep yourself all hooked up but MD can be understood only by the ones who have it , i told my mom about it she is just like it will be ok after a while you just concentrate on your work (she having lot of faith on me) but she does not know how it feels like , so if you wanna tell anyone about MD show them online articles on it and make them believe you otherwise it's a waste of time and energy telling friends about this , so be here share stories lets keep it together there is always a way out :) god bless . 

I might tell them in time, but for now, i am just so happy to of found this place where i can talk to you all about my MD. I know that people like you actually know and understand what its like to have this. Thank you. (:

I haven't told my husband. I only told him I have trouble concentrating sometimes. He would not understand.

I agree with The Elite that it would be good to show them online articles. I showed my parents Cynthia's study, and they were very impressed by how professional and scientific it was. It also revealed all of my symptoms. Of course, I waited years and years to be able to tell them, but this was the right moment for me. Fortunately, they took it very seriously, and they're currently helping me to deal with it. The study made them understand MD in ways I couldn't bring myself to explain. You can read about the longer story on my blog or just check out the study. It's a great read! GL! =D

Thank you so much! I will look into her study and possibly show them that. Hopefully they'll take me seriously.

i know how you feel, i hate having to keep secrets from my loved ones but im embarressed to tell them i dont think they will believe me, my partents just think that im lazy because i cant consentrate, iv started hinting to them about my problem but they dont get the hints, my mum says that i 'live in a world of my own' she has no idea that i kinda acctually do, i dont know when ill tell them but i know i will when im ready to tell them.

i think its probaly best to tell them when your ready.

Oh wow. That sounds like something my mom and dad would say...
