The easiest ways are changing your day to day life. Here are some examples:

If you masturbate and watch porn. Cut them out entirely, forever. Especially if you're an addict, you will struggle but overcoming your addiction obviously builds fortitude. Trust me, it will open up a new world of emotions and perspective on life.
Meditation can be a great asset to unload all the drama and stress in your own head. It also makes you more used to facing those bad things that dwell within everyone. I'd recommend both present meditation where you clear your mind and soul searching type where you just let yourself experience your emotions and try to understand them.
Cold showers are also a builder of discipline, willpower and fortitude. I don't need to explain it. Just go up to the average person and tell them to take a cold shower. Their reaction is all you need to understand why it's useful.
Be unapologetic about yourself and the things you like. It can be small things. I recently found that playing some serious air guitar while mouthing along the lyrics is actually a great way to pump myself up. It makes me happy and fills me with energy. And I do it exclusively in public. At the gym, on the street and wherever else. Did it at the beach too. I probably look absolutely insane. People stare but I don't care. Girls will look and give me that worried "is he going to kill me" glare. It's funny that people will look but they will try to distract themselves. I go hard at it. I'm not shy about it. I'll be shredding some br00tal riffs while mouthing along about the end of earth and humanity or something.
Release pent up emotion. Find a way. We often bottle things up and they fester inside like poison. Slowly damaging us without even us noticing. One thing that I've never done before is scream. As loud as I could. And I did it this past weekend. Hearing my voice echo was pretty empowering and pure catharsis. Physical activity is another way that is very effective and it's on the regular. But you gotta go hard at it. No slacking, no sitting on the bench scrolling through instagram. Throwing some kicks and punches at a heavy bag can also be pretty satisfying and a way to release it.
As for girls. You know exactly what it is. Exposure. And absolutely be unapologetic, be the guy you want to be.

Hope this helps.

Here is what happened to me not that it is a solution but I'll share. In the words of Tyler Durden "once a man has lost everything he is free to do anything."

Feel the anger and humiliation let it wash over you and revel in it. Realize that nothing you ever do will change that. Girls will never like you. Guys will shit on you. Your existence is one big waste of oxygen in the eyes of society. I think you are pathetic for even asking.

Now let your bubble just burst. That feeling has washed over you. There is nothing left to fear. Go out and walk with your shoulders back and an axe to grind. What will they do? What am I going to do to you? Nothing. You don't care anymore. Do what you want and laugh at the idea that anyone could think you care what they think. You are free. It doesn't matter.

Whenever i wonder and struggle with doing something, i think or speak out loud:

"Full Control"

And i do it

Assertion for self esteem, skill for self confidence and you’ll be good to go.
