I wanna be wild I wanna go out late at night and just roam around with my friends and get McDonald’s and scream until my throat hurts
I wanna live my teenage years but I am losing them to my strict parents

At a certain age the feeling of "I don't give a shit if people think I'm ridiculous I will enjoy my interests anyway" gets over. The teenage insecurities don't completely go away, everyone still has a certain degree of self-consciousness, but your self-confidence does get a little boost. It does get better after your "awkward teenage phase". Nurture that self-confidence when you notice it, do things despite of the fear and don't shut yourself down for thinking confidence makes you egotistical or selfish. It is a healthy thing to have a balanced view of oneself. You really don't have to put so much energy into finding your flaws, into hating yourself, or putting your own interests down just to please other people.
You do start to get more comfortable with who you are after your teens. Don't give up now.
And if you need some encouragement today, please remember that people don't do things because they are extremely confident of themselves. They do it despite the fear of failure. You can do it too. You don't have to be perfect.

Depression
They say depression is like a tunnel. You see a light far back, but you don't think you can reach it. There are no windows. But actually there are windows. There are good days. There are windows and there is an end of the tunnel. You can try to reach the end of the tunnel or even just the next window. But with every step your legs get heavier until you can't move anymore. And then you question everything. The windows, the walls, the floor, yourself. But those aren't the bad thoughts. The bad thoughts come when you think the end of the tunnel is a mirage. Because then it doesn't matter if you go through the tunnel alone or in pairs. It is and remains endless. And the steps become heavier.
