Haha, that's really interesting!

I recognize myself in some of your text, and I too have had problems with expressing myself and worrying about what other people would think. But the more I have connected with my own inner anger, the stronger I have started to be, and the less I have been worried about what people think or do. Anger is our defence mechanism, and it is needed for us to set boundaries, to assert ourselves, and to be comfortable, knowing that we can always fall back on it if needed. I'm not talking about that you should go around being angry all the time, maybe you are, well you probably are, but you are not in touch with that emotion. What you need to do is to seek out that part of yourself, that angry motherf*cker that rests inside, the one who have been badly treated, the one who have been quieted down, and bring him out. Then you will see how important anger is. I go regularly to the gym and hit a punching bag and go and train martial arts every week, that have done wonders to me.
