We hear a lot about meditation in the community, which has its pros and cons. What we don't hear about is mindfulness. This is "the practice of maintaining a nonjudgmental state of heightened or complete awareness of one's thoughts, emotions, or experiences on a moment-to-moment basis; also: such a state of awareness". This can be used along with meditation or on its own.
Most importantly, no one will find answers about who you are while staring at a computer screen. I highly recommend getting away from the computer. Leave the phone at home. If you must take a phone with you for safety, turn off notifications, and don't check it for a while. Go to a park, preferably a grassy and wooded area, and just be yourself without any distractions. This time alone reduces being falsely influenced by others.
Part of mindfulness is also knowing when to take a step back. If you are having trouble finding answers about yourself, it's okay to put this aside and focus on other things. If you are indeed a Therianthrope, this part of yourself won't disappear just because you don't focus on it.
