Totally normal! I used to get this too. At school you're comparing yourself to people you consider better looking than yourself. Obviously there are more of them around as there are more people around generally. You may not even mean to do it but we all do to some extent. Even the people you think look amazing will be comparing themselves to others! Peer pressure to look good also has an impact on self esteem. It's part of growing up and over time you'll become more comfortable in your own skin. Try to accept and celebrate what you look like - no one else is gonna do it for you (unless you have an identical twin?!)
