Maybe give some free advice about: Friendship?
It's normal to feel like this because I'm sure most people go through that. You know yourself better than anyone else. Your parents, friends, anyone.. you still know yourself best even though you might feel like you lose peaces of who you are. First, you need to gain some confidence. Beleive that you can do anything you put your mind to and that if you tried that you would succeed. I'm not saying these things to be cheesy or chocky, but confidence is everything. If you don't beleive in yourself, no one else will and people won't take you seriously. You have your own personal tastes, styles and everything but you have to have the guts to show it off. If you like a different kind of clothing, wear it. Don't be afraid of what other people will think because most of them would be embarassed. Don't follow any crows at school or wherever you are because being like someone else will only make you feel worse and different about yourself. You are you and you have to find the real you. Do the things that you love or that you used to do before but just stoped. Start new things and push yourself to do other better things. Make new friends and just be yourself no matter what. If someone doesn't like you for your personality they shouldn't even be hanging around you. Be positive and just try to have fun... all I'm saying is be yourself, and be confident in everything that you do!

becoming origanal is not caring what people think
doing things that make you feel good
no one can tell you specifics
just be yourself
be happy

I suggest going to a church retreat, a good intense one too, not a lame 6 year old one, because I went and now I'm discovering who I really am and what type of person I want to be...Well that's what helped me so hopefully it'll help you too and good luck

I think its fitting that you put this as a friendship question because they are the people that can help you in this. Confide in one of your closest friends about this problem (it is so much better than worrying alone, trust me. If they are a true friend they will try to help you all you can) and together make up a list of your key traits and your likes/dislikes such as what to do in your spare time or . That way, you will be reminded of who you are at the moment. Then choose some of your likes and devote a weekend to them, just celebrating things that make you happy.
Then if you wish to be original, i say go mad. Get your hair dyed and cut a different way, go on a shopping trip buying things that you normally wouldnt go for, try something that you've never done before like a martial art. Just have fun and relearn that life is for living, don't get down about it, party it out of your system. Whenever I feel down, I have a mental dancing session for about 20 mins to help me feel better.
Smile, everyone feels like this at some point. It will pass I promise. Maybe looking towards the future may help as well, such as looking at university brochures, etc.
Good luck

First of all don't follow the crowds, be what you want and not what other people want. Go to the mall, and find some clothes that YOU like and wear those, it will make you feel better about yourself. Just do things that you know are you...Like just take a day to do stuff you enjoy...
Hope I helped!

maybe you just need some inspiration. who are some people you admire? singers, actors, etc..
you can express yourself with your clothing, music, and personality.
a lot of teens dont know who they are yet. its completely normal. but decide how you want to be and
then you can do your best at being you!
magazines can help. i like teen vogue. i got a lot of style inspiration from them. but it really all depends on what you want to be.
