    Censor your swearing so that you won't get banned. You're still young, you shouldn't let other people's opinions get to you and force you to change into what you are not. You should be yourself and ignore everyone else's negative opinions about you. I went through that kind of phase myself, though I never actually tried to fit in and wear main stream stuff, but I went through a self-hating phase anyways.

    i think it is important to just be yourself. one of my favorite song lyrics comes from a jimmy eat world song: "just be yourself.
    It doesn't matter if it's good enough for someone else."

    I have had a hard time in the past with how I look, and I still do at times (I'm on the verge of being obese), but I think it is important to remember that it's okay to be ourselves. I have found that atleast someone is bound to love someone for them no matter what.

    Whenever I feel the way you described, I have found that listening to uplifting songs helps alot.

    I like to think that each person on this planet has their own life long challenge to overcome. Mine is my weight and self-image issues. It is a constant struggle to remind myself that there are people who love me for me, no matter what.

    Maybe...also, something that would help you, is developing your talents or learning something new and worthwhile...I have found that now I am alot more confident in myself because I have worked for the past 3 or 4 years on music in my free time and it has given me alot of outlet for my troubles.

    Also, another thing that helps me to be happy is helping other people. It makes me feel whole as a person and important to someone as well.

    I hope i could help.
    i know it is hard, but you can pull through. i promise.
