Question

it's like a little phobia i have. i know it's stupid, but, it's true.

Answer 1

Deep down everyone is afraid of what people think of them, just some more than others.

It comes down to confidence issues.  You need to find ways to boost your confidence.  I don't know how old you are, but for younger people their are community groups that can help with that.  If you are a bit older, try finding some literature in that area.  

Answer 2

your just self conscious

i have the same problem

your just extremely shy. its just something u have to accept or work on

i know it sucks

Answer 3

Here's what I'm "thinking"...why do you care about what others think?
