So whenever I go in public (especially for rehearsals with my theater group) I feel like people are looking at me differently than they look at other people- and it makes me feel really exposed and vulnerable and then I start freaking out. They all ask me "What's wrong?" or "are you okay" and I really don't see why. It's probably because of my facial expression- which is usually depressed (I try not to look depressed but it doesn't work.)

And then I feel like people are looking at me for the rest of the day- even when I'm at home. (with no one else around)

FYI: I'm not a "pubescent" teen... i've passed all that crap so i don't know what's up with me.

Well I would tell you to see a specialist on anxiety. but they'd only put you on anti-depressants. Which, that's a load of crap.
When someone asks you whats wrong. think of something witty to say. like "My hot dog got hit by a car last night." or "My brother's hamster think's I'm superman." Just something to make them laugh. Laughing is a great medicine. It'll lift both their spirit, your spirit, and make people around you laugh... basically it'll put you in a happy setting. and when you are, you're less likely to be paranoid.

Plus It'll give you the impression of a more go-with-the-flow kind of person. and people will admire that.
