They are not staring. Everyone is different and its a good thing. This is an insecurity which you have to overcome. Its all in your head. Tell yourself you are okay and you can handle it . Be comfortable in your skin .

Well, are they staring at you? Stare back at them and find out! It'll be fun! And of course you look different! You are a different and unique human being who happens to be a part of this universe, right? Even twins aren't exactly alike. Being different is okay... Let me ask you: could it be that you're too worried about not fitting in and a little self-conscious? :D

The best answer I can say is just keep telling yourself that everyone is unique in they're own way, and to just keep you're head up!

First, you have to realize this is a form of a thinking error, called Mind reading. You're assuming what other peoples are thinking. You have to know the difference between fact and opinion. One of the best ways to know what someone is thinking of is to ask them directly!

The thing is, it can’t stop thinking that you look different to others because you do. And that’s amazing! Every single person on this earth is different from one another and that is what makes us all unique and the world such an interesting place. If you think everyone is staring at you, look at it in a different light. Instead of thinking, ‘Why is everyone staring at me, what’s wrong with me’, think, ‘Wow, how amazing am I to have all these people not being able to keep their eyes off me’! It’s a little dramatic, I know, but it’s honestly the best way to overcome a struggle like this. Oh and act confident, always!

It's to to think that same like you, everyone is also special individuals. Each person have their own traits and it's not all good trait. What we have less in ourselves maybe more in the others.

Well No one looks exactly the same everyone is a little different. The best way to stop caring about whether people are looking at you or not is to become comfortable with yourself physically and internally.

You do look different than other, but we all do. That is the beauty of variety. We are colours, colouring this world in so much different ways. :)

Sometimes the removal of a thought is complicated and exhausting. I suggest you approach this issue the other way around, and that means to embrace your difference instead of trying to conceal it. Your look has nothing to do with the chances of fitting into a group or to belong to an environment. Your unique physical features do not define who you are, but you can still play with them and turn what you labelled as "flaws" into your signature features. Should you ever feel uncomfortable with the way people look at you or comment your body, come out clear and gently confront them about how you feel.
