Why do I always feel like people are laughing at me when I don't hear it?

Maybe you are thinking over it too much. Or those PEOPLE aren't really on good terms with you. Or maybe you did something that you feel like people will laugh at you if they know and feel like they know it, I am sure they know it and the feeling became stronger to the point of you hearing laughter.

I was often teased. Wickedly teased. I felt sad. I didn't feel good about myself. Today, it's better but before today, it was difficult to endure.

It can be a sign of insecurity or shame. How we feel and perceive what people are doing is a signal from our subconscious.

It's your own self doubt and lack of confidence. I have this very sane issue and it is not at all nice

It's easy to think that people are laughing at you when you are insecure about yourself. When your thoughts are absorbed with how you look or act, the only logical reasoning in your mind is that they must be laughing at you. The important thing to realize is that most people, especially those you don't know, won't pay attention to how you look or act, which means they are almost definitely not laughing at you.

It could be anxiety acting up. I avoid this by wearing earphones and listening to music whenever I walk about without company.

Most likely due to low self esteem, you think that everyone thinks only about making fun out of you but usually it's not true.

It might be because you have been made fun of before which is upsetting, or you might benefit from having more confidence in yourself :)

It's usually in your head. Just remember how much you are loved. In the end, the people who hurt you are the people who missed out on befriending the wonderful person you are.

Have you been mistreated a lot? And let down a lot of times? Because people do that a lot, and those who were affected, don't expect much from people afterwards, and think that everyone is like that. So you will feel like that, until you start looking at things from different point of view. Just find the right time and try this. Slowly with someone you trust. After all you can always find advice here, and people will help.
