Why do i think people are watching me

Why do i think people are watching me?
Why do i think people are laughing at me?
Why do i feel that people are talking about me when they whisper to each other?

If you always ask yourself the same questions then you have got a self consciousness problem. The Self consciousness problem is an incorrect pattern of thinking that makes people believe that others are watching them, laughing at them and making fun of them.

If you always think that people are watching you then read this article.

This is why you think people Are watching you

I want you to wear your worst clothes then walk in the streets, What do you think will happen?

Certainly you are going to be even more conscious of people's looks. You won't just think that people are watching you but you will also believe that they dislike your clothes.

Now the question is, why do you think you became more conscious of their looks after wearing your worst clothes?

Simply because you knew that you are looking bad and that's why you started to think that everyone is watching you.

In fact if you can read minds you would have discovered that most people didn't actually notice your clothes. In my previous article why do i think people dont like me i explained how the incorrect meanings we give to events are the ones that make us feel bad and that reduce our self confidence.

You think people are watching you because you believe something is wrong with you

The main reason you think that people are watching you is that you believe that something is wrong with you.

Do you feel inferior to others?
Do you think that you are not as good as other people?
Do you think that you are not as attractive as them?
Do you think you look like a nerd, a geek or boring person?

All of these disorders and negative beliefs can make you become more self conscious. Just like wearing bad clothes can make you think that others are watching you believing that something is wrong with you will have the same effect.

How to stop thinking that people are watching you

There is a solution that can help you stop thinking that people are watching you. Just do the following steps:

  • Change your clothes: No i don't mean the ones you are wearing but i am talking about the personal disorders that make you think that you are less than others.
  • Reality checks: Keep looking around you whenever you feel that people are watching you. Don't look suspicious else some of them will start to actually look at you. When you find that no one is looking your false belief will weaken. Keep doing this each time you believe that someone is watching you and you will discover that you had a false belief and that no one was watching you.
  • You are surrounded by humans not superheroes: If you care much about your looks then those people you see care as much about their looks as you do. If you think that people are watching you then know that many others have the same negative thinking pattern. Remind yourself that you are dealing with humans and not superheroes and you will never feel self conscious around them
