There would be little point in having your own files show up in a search, as you would not want to download them.
You can however search for your own ip address in Direct Connect and you will hopefully see your share as it would appear to others. This normally works after a couple of tries.
You said "Yes, of course I know how to see what I share" However, you'ld be surprised how many people come to the forums and ask that very very question
I hope this helps.
