I think it is all about confidence. If you are confident about how you look and the person you are, I don't think it will matter to you who is laughing. You do not give the people the power of letting their laughs effect you so much.

The way I got over feeling that way was to learn to just deal with it. We can't dictate what others think of us at all times. Just be yourself and if others want to laugh at you and make fun, let them. Insecurities is completely normal and I tell myself time and time again, "You are what you think you are." People are people and you can't make everyone happy with you.

Don't care, everything they tell or think about you isn't your problem. Only your opinion counts in this case. Enjoy your life as you want to.

It doesn't matter who or what you were in the past, what matters is who you are “Nowâ€. Start loving and accepting yourself. Because when you will start doing that, it won't matter to you what others think!

Usually people laugh at me when I make a mistake or act in a weird way. There are two cases: these people have good intentions and just amplify my mistake so that everyone can laugh or these people have bad intentions and make fun of me. In the first case, I try to think of what I did objectively - I usually realize that what I did was indeed strange and that I would laugh if I saw someone else doing it. I'm aware I'm a human being and that mistakes are expected, so I laugh at myself for what I did along with the other people. Ultimately, I'm glad they feel close enough to me to comment on my behavior rather than pretend it didn't happen at all. For me, people laughing at me (with good intentions) is proof that they like me and are comfortable around me.
Regarding the second case, the bad-intended people... Well, I already made my peace with my nature of making a few mistakes now and again, so I think that people who make fun of me for these, humanly mistakes are just not worth my time or attention. Ok, I will feel frustrated momentarily but then I'll remind myself that what I did is not something I should feel bad about and I won't let people (for whom I don't care) to make me feel bad.

I ignore them to show that they don't bother me. Because if I let them get the best out of me it only means that I'm really worth laughing at.
