Hamlet tells his comrades because he doesn't want them getting the wrong impression of his acting crazy! Hamlet acts crazy as part of a tactic and not out of genuine anger and grief. The anger and grief manifest themselves in Hamlet's revenge plot.

Hamlet means that there are no absolute truths in the world. Nothing is entirely bad or entirely good. It's up to the individual to determine whether or not something is good. For Hamlet, Denmark is like a prison.
Hamlet isn't actually crazy, he tries to drop hints to his old friends by cryptically telling them that when the time is right, I'm not crazy. In my opinion when a person still has the capacity to ask the question "am I acting crazy?" they are still capable of behaving normally.
