All my friends know about my "crazy diet" and they are very understanding. At first I was also nervous about telling other people about IBS, but I found that talking to my close friends about it helped me emotionaly and as a side benefit a few of htme said "oh wow.. I think that might be my problem too" at least two of my friends have started to consider Heather's diet.
Just tell your firends that you have IBS. If they ask what that is tell them. If they want to know more you can add details or just explain to them about how it effects your life and diet. Once you start to open up it gets easier to continue.
As far as your teachers are concerned you don't have to tel them if you have that Dr. note. If you decide to tell them just ask them to keep it confidential and they will.
Good luck.
