Is it normal to feel like everyone is laughing at you?

When I go out in public I feel like everyone that is laughing is laughing at me.

Is it normal?

  • It is not 'normal', however it is 'common'.
    It's called Social Anxiety (Social Phobia) as many of the comments state. Its popular and is easily treated, plus what you describe is only a trait of it. You may not even actually have the disorder.

  • Yuppppp normal. Or social anxiety. I've got it too. They gave me Prozac for it. Personally, I think it just made me bitchier but oh well. At least I'm not a doormat.

  • Me too, especially when you're in a room with just a few people and they all start laughing for no reason and you don't understand the joke and you juts KNOW they're laughing at you. You ask "What's so funny?" and they just say "Nothin'! *smirk smirk*".

  • It's called social anxiety. Sometimes medication can help ease that problem.
