Maybe you should consider counseling where with a professional you can explore ways to change what you do not like about yourself.

You can't. You will be you for the rest of your life. Embrace yourself. Or if you don't like something, then change it. Work on self a little every day! Date yourself. Fall in love with yourself. Look at yourself in the mirror and say 5 positive affirmations each day! Smile even when you don't want to. This is the life you have. All your past experiences have contributed to the current you but you can work on bettering yourself. Baby steps.

You learn to accept yourself as you grow as a person, it’s a part of life and it’s an important process. Remember that a lot of people go through the same thing, you are not alone. Ask loved ones what they think of you and believe them when they list all the amazing personality traits. You can’t change the way you are and that’s a good thing because you are good enough. The world needs more originality, it doesn’t need picture perfect people. It’s might be really hard right now but eventually you’ll slowly but surely start to love yourself the way you are.
