The thing you may be feeling is called the spotlight effect. The spotlight effect is when you feel like you are being noticed by others more than you really are. It's completely normal to feel this way.

Well. You’re insecure. I totally get it. You feel like there is nothing that people would rather do than make fun of you, and I’m super sorry. It sucks. Feel free to message me so we can talk about it.

You might be insecure and very self-conscious. Perhaps, you suffer from low-self esteem. Or maybe you've had negative experiences with people laughing at you in the past or during your childhood, and that feeling has stayed with you.

You are paranoid, but you are not alone. Majority of people feel this way and it can become exhausting. Try distract yourself because 95% of the time, it's only yourself thinking this.

I feel like that sometimes because I feel insecure and I don’t think I am good enough. But it is ok because you don’t have to care

You might be struggling with anxiety, and you feel uneasy around other people. From personal experience they usually are not talking about you, but I completely understand how it may seem that they are

Social anxiety and self doubt caused me to believe that people around me in public were judging me for my appearance, how slow I am at the checkout, what I'm shopping for etc. It also has a lot to do with confidence

Well, when you feel like these it often means your insecure and shy and you feel like everyone is watching you.

There's always that paranoia of embarrassment. Just tell yourself, you don't care what other people say about you. You are your own individual.
