I dont know if this helps, but my daughter went through the same feelings in high school trying to "fit in". I am lucky being always able to maintain communication with my kids, so I sat down with her and found out what it was she really wanted to do. Rather than compromising to be part of the group, I pointed her toward becoming her own person and following her own path. Now I get thats not ideal, but its not the end of the story. Within a short time, she found a small group of people interested in being part of her direction. She became a "trend" herself. Since then she has developed into quite the leader.
