That counsellor should be sacked bec he/she has not followed the
basic training of counselling which is to keep everything
confidential! Shame on that person.
By all means, go see your school counsellor especially since you
seemed to be burdened by some issues which you have dont know how
to sort out. An extermal view and experience is always
useful.
Oh about being branded... the people who do that are just ignorant
and silly. Often they are the one who needs help but unlike you,
they do not have the courage to seek it.
so by all means, please go. I am sure you can arrange for the
timing to be such that its perhaps at a time when most of your
friends or teachers are not around? say like on a particular day
the timetable is often very quiet etc??
take care
