My (not so) younger self could have related to this. I used to do some odd things to get noticed because not many people gave me positive attention. I used to bark and growl like a dog even when I was 10-11, because I wanted to be seen as unique, and I also told others when I was about 13 that I knew their death date and could see into their future. I've matured quite a bit in the last year though (I'm now 14).
