Help, I need someone to talk to

[XK9_Knight]

This may not be much in the way of advice, but it's at least some encouragement.

This is perhaps the best time in your life because it sets you up for who you’ll be later. Don’t worry about your parents, don’t worry about ridicule, and don’t worry about your friends. How you handle what life throws at you determines how you’re character will grow. You’re brilliant, you’re modest, you’re thoughtful. You’re a natural learning, an enquirer, a visionary, step into it.

Don’t tell me you have low self esteem, you’re brilliant, I know it.
