My job has a precedent where every one posts when they’re out sick in the group chat

This also applies to working from home, they every one posts in the group chat with ALL teams. I understand telling your supervisor and team that you’ll be out, but the precedent set of people saying that they’re sick, working remotely that day, etc. gives me anxiety. I always fear they’ll think I’m lying about being sick or lazy. Also, as someone with a chronic illness that I like to keep private, it’s no one’s fucking business why I’m out. Should I break the precedent for myself or talk to my manager?
