What I meant by "changing my life radically" was to become a completely different person, physically and emotionally. But thinking about it, yes, as you said, it's not that easy. I understand that most people my age are immature and tend to make fun of others. However, I've been going through tough times recently: I don't have any real friends and I can't make new ones, even if I move to another high school. That is because of how I am, people won't want to interact with me. It hurts to see others having what I want or need. I've been having bad grades and going through a really bad anxiety, being affected by other people's comments as well. This is one of the reasons why I want to get a new haircut that does suit me, not just to look good for others, but also for myself. I've been searching some but couldn't find one that I like. As a result, I don't have the enough motivation to workout, to study every weekday or learning new things. I have talked about this with my teachers and what they see is that I'm only focused on the bad things and on what will people say about me. I've tried to ignore people's opinions but it seems impossible because I always overthink everything and I don't think moving to another high school would really change that.
