Being shy is a natural part of a person's personality that can easily be conquered. I am very insecure about myself also. I have severe body acne that makes my self esteem hit ground zero, so I know about what your talking about. I am not a professional psychologist, but I can still give you a stable amount of advice. If you are not getting period like you normally would, than I would suggest seeing a doctor, because possibility of hormonal imbalance is possible. If you haven't gotten your period yet in general, than I would wait a little bit longer. I know someone who didn't get their period until they were sixteen! The idea of being overweight, when being underweight is a critical health condition called anorexia, or bulimia. Anorexia is when you stop eating because you think you're overweight, but being bulimic is when you eat a lot of food and then make yourself throw up quickly afterward. You may just have self-esteem problems, but if you feel like you're suffering from bulimia or anorexia than you should see a psychologist. The low self-esteem and the confusion itself from not knowing what to do could be causing the fear, and rages of anger. Do not take all of my advice, but do remember this is just a reference. Here are some of the signs of hormonal imbalance that I found online. I hope this helped!
