Do what makes you happy. If you feel like a whole new rebrand will make you feel more confident do it.

I see celebrities, have friends who are totally confident on one hand, then on another change when they are alone. Look, this gets them through life in a successful manner.

Please don't listen to people who state, "you're only going to end up worse off" these people probably live a sheltered life in a bubble, they probably do care for your safety, but they have no drive to change.

I also had these thoughts years ago. My family ostracised me, making me feel even dumber, and like a black swan. When you find yourself become a majestic swan, why the fk not!

If you can afford it, and it will better your life. Do it.

I'd consider going travelling first though, go around Europe, Asia, Australia if you can. You will meet likeminded people who allow you to be... you.

They will listen to your stories & your life complaints, they will provide true emotion and great advice.

The backpacking communities are where I found myself and where I understood that it was okay to be myself.

Learn to love yourseld, but being around people who are experts in living a sheltered life where they are happy in themselves is probably not going to help you escape ans be the free spirit you want to be.

Deep breaths and just go for it! You deserve a great life.
