Sometimes I feel like I have no personality. Im a very insecure person and being that way prevents me from doing things and trying to persue what i want in life. It also prevents me from starting relationships. How can i stop feeling this way?

Thanks for your honesty. It must be hard to write things like that.
The good news is that there are lots of ways you can work on self-confidence and self-assurance. You could hang out and watch someone you admire and over time adopt some of their mannerisms, postures, and sayings. Eventually, you'll start to rework some of your beliefs about your potential and self-worth.
Alternatively, you could try and watch the bad feelings come and go and embrace them with innate kindness, instead of trying to stop or change them.
You can try visualizing yourself being assertive and sticking up for yourself.
You can listen to encouraging music and contemplate what it is you need to move on to the next step.
There are infinite therapies you go do.
The bad news is, you have to figure out which one will work for you. BUT, the good news is that this process can be kind of fun. Try one one day, see where it goes, and then try another, and see how IT goes.
You could also buy some books on the topic or visit a therapist.
Lots of options! Have hope. Always have hope. And have fun! The more fun you make it the better.
Best of luck,

This will be short and to the point. You need to start making yourself happy first, do things that you like doing and don't worry about what other think of you; but really need to think what makes you really happy. Me myself i had the same problem kind of; fifteen years ago i lost all of my hair, not once but twice. I had no self- confidence at all and i even try to kill myself; but then some how i snap out of it.Because i thought there is a lot of people that go threw worst things. You need to go to my profile and read about me; i had lots of bad things happen in my life and i don't let it stop me from trying to be happy. And if your happy; other people will feel it and invite you in their world. I hope that i help you out a little and may you have a bless day. Good luck thisisme. LOVELYLADY1
Yes, you do need to do things that make you feel happy first. You need to find out what kind of therapies can help and go for them.
You have so much to look forward to!
Best,
