I'm a teacher and I have only told a select few people at my job about the BP. But I'm also a master at hiding my symptoms, at least enough so that no one bothers me. I know they talk about me behind my back but I don't care. As for my students, I would never tell any of them about my illness. But again, they don't notice. At most they might think I'm weird but that's no big deal to me. However, I don't have a service dog. I'm not sure how you would get around that unless you lied about something like told people you have a seizure disorder or something like that. Which I wouldn't want to do because I wouldn't want people to find out I'm lyinG.

Teaching works for me but I understand how it may not work for you. I would suggest trying some other classes at school and seeing if you can find something else you're interested in.
