Ok this is what you do. Find someone like Pharrell or Lupe Fiasco and aspire to them. Put pictures up and learn about their lives. They're what you want to be and could inadvertantly through their music take you to wear you want to be by projecting your future as their lives. Then, you must realize that life is all about attitude. how you're reacting to things and thinking about them rather than how you're being presented with them. Watch this. http://youtube.com/watch?v=csiAsbPxmmY It will change your life, if you let it. You'll be amazed at what it can do, when you seriously now put it into play in your life.

The best thing i think i can tell you is to DROP the whole "Cool" thing!... you're putting a totally unnecessary limit to yourself,y so? it's not essential to be cool in life!.. If you think you're not COOL then don't be!... Don't pretend to be!...y you just keep saying I HAVE TOBE COOL?.. You don't HAVE TO be anything but YOU!.. Since you trying to be someone else you never find the real YOU inside yourself!... Every man has one's own talents others may not have!... NOt every body on this planet has to be cool and lemme assure you the aim of human being is not becoming cool!... Please just pay attention to the things you already are, and if you think you've lost the real you, first take off the COOL PERSON shoes ok?;).... being a rapper a professional skater as you said you wish you would be ... ofcourse is a good thing but not good enough for a 24 year old guy to be obsessed with!... Search the positive points inside you and breed them!
You're only 24!... not that old to be ashamed of telling us your problem!... We all have different sorts of problems and are actually here to let the others know about them and ask them if they could solve them!... we're gathering here in order to help eachther!...
And the last thing i realized to say is about committing a suicide, It is a way you think you can get rid of all your problems? but what makes you sure that after you die, you will be in safety and comfort ?!...You really have no idea what it's like , the other world i mean... ofcourse it's better but when it's the time for you to jump into a whole different world, when you're ready... But now that you can't overcome the fears inside you, you're not even ready to die!... SO don't make a bigger mistake... cuz if you do, there will be no turning back!!!!!!
You have yet to experience in this world!... Try to make good things happen to you... u know what?.. if you really WANT something from the buttom of your heart and ou work hard, you'll definitly reach to the goal!...
Do you work?... if not, get yourself a job, some friends, study another language, i dunno what you like, whatever , just fill your everyday and make yourself busier than to think about such things!
Wish you the best to beat all the rest!... take care =)
P.S: Does it really make sense where your parents are from?!.. come onnnn!.... open your mind!...

go to a counsler or phyciatrist. its perfectly fine, there are people who are 70 on yahoo answers. ITS OK IF YOU TRY TO BE COOL! everyone does it. about the suicide, don't do it. thats such a waste or the long life you have to live yet. if you don't wanna live ur life that ur parents and God gave to you, you are being ungrateful. seriosuly. talk to your parents. even though ur 24 you sound like...uh...theres not really a word for it....just....wooh... this is hard to explain...uh...no one ever tries to completely be themselves. if everyone was completely themselves, no one would be cool, no popular, no celebrity, i mean seriously, hilary duff picks her nose! EVERY SINGLE PERSON PICKS THERE NOSE! is that cool? no. do people do it? yes!

Go out and be yourself. go places that you would like that you have not been to before. And just be yourself. People will like you and you will find out that you can be yourself. It just takes the first step to get out there. It does not matter where you are from. Your normal life will be easier when you just start having fun living it.

You are letting society tell you how to act, instead of you acting the way you want to act. Please get some counseling.

please remember that if you go through your life trying to please others you'll never make yourself truly happy, first you have to start there, with really knowing who and what you are, you have to respect yourself first, for no one else will until you do, good luck young man
