How do I stop feeling sorry for myself?

hmm that's the thing. I can't really see a way to change my situation rn coz I'm living with religious parents(Sikh) who want me to keep my hair .It's not hair on head, also my beard etc

I have an old grandma who lives with us and who's pretty emotional n my dad's telling me that he is afraid what might happen to her if I cut my hair. And I do somewhat believe him lol

I try to look into my religion to kind of accept it but the more I read up the more I feel like it's not for me.

Like rn my friends are going out n clubbing n I want to join them but my turban restricts me because I don't only represent myself but my community too and I feel guilt because I'm doing smt I'm not supposed to do

I feel pretty miserable man. The way I been coping is by telling myself that my life could be so much more worse or I disrespect my parents and behave passively aggressively(which isn't good ik)
