The worst thing that can happen is to lose yourself or even do so before you know who you are.
As a child/teenager I struggled and decided I can't do it. The thing was (is) no matter how hard I try I will not be liked (Dutch expression: those who want to beat a dog will always find a stick).

It's better to be alone than in a crowd and I do not need people to make me feel unhappy.

Please, stay true to yourself since you are your own best friend.
