how can i change my life?
I'm aware I'm the only person who can answer this question but it bothers me how predictable and boring I am. I feel like I can not free myself from my shyness. I can't let go and walk around proudly myself because I am not sure who I am. Yes I am teenager but I feel so stagnant. Now I want to go out there and become promiscuous, do drugs, and drink to feel free. I feel I'm stuck I can't do anything. I feel I'll always be the same and I'll never change. I know this is a horrible wish but sometimes I wish someone close to me would die so I just wake up to reality. i take life as a joke or way too seriously. I do not understand anything. I feel hopeless. I AM NOT CONSIDERING SUICIDE because I feel like I can change but I do not how. that's why i want something traumatic to happen to me to wake me up. It's like nothing can get through to me. People advise about this since forever and I never change because I can't. I know being selfish to wish a death of a family member for my own change. I sound like a crazy person. I need some HARD-CORE ADVICE. Thanks

Since you mention shyness.... I'm guessing you feel like you're in a rut. Maybe wanting something new in your life. Maybe a new girl in your life?
How about this.... Go out.... Meet and GET REJECTED by 10 girls you don't know. I don't mean go out and try to "pick them up" successfully. I mean, find girls you might like to meet, BUT go into the encounter INTENDING to get rejected. (It's just an experiment, so rejection is not a bad thing here.) And keep a journal of the experience paying specific attention to your inner reactions. See what happens.
When you want something new to happen, you have to stop doing the same things you normally do.
Be well.

The best way to overcome your fears is to do the things you fear. You have to try and help yourself instead of being numb and having these thoughts. Sometime something really terrible will happen, not because you thought of it but because that's the way life is. You don't want to wake up to this. You have to wake up now and it's all up to you. There is no magical advice, just act.

You can start by building your self confidence, talk to someone you know about how they feel about you and every positive thing they say put that in your head and lock it, when you wake up in the morning everyday think of those things and look in the mirror and say everyday i`m beautiful regardless of how you feel just say i am stunning, walk out the door with a smile on your face and just start to take good care of yourself do things that make you happy, discover new things about yourself and live them out.
