I Am Trying to Find Happiness

I'm really struggling to be happy lately, I feel like nobody ever values me. Not my parents or anyone all I'm getting is complaint, people telling me I'm not doing this right or thir, being naive, not putting efforts in, being unworthy and comments on how I look, too skinny, too that or this. I'm really tired, and all I want is to have my confidence back.

Sorry to hear, sounds like a really toxic environment. You seem interesting with a lot going for you actually, they probably want whats best for you in terms of what they think is best for them but they're disconnected with how they come off.

It's hard to change parents especially, I'd just start telling them that I don't appreciate the criticism and i'm doing just fine, then my next goal would be to move towards getting out of that environment. I've been through this a bit myself and I know it's very draining and unhealthy, hope you feel better soon.
