Did telling your family help your Social Anxiety?

I'm a socially anxious person and have been as long as I can remember.I've come out to some and not others.At work it's a struggle - it's easy to tell some people at work (women), but harder to tell others (usually straight, mature men).Did you find that when you told your parents, your social anxiety dissipated?This, of course, is on the assumption that you are socially anxious.
