Build up your self confidence and when you think you are there, go for it - whatever we do in life we must be prepared to accept that not all of it will be well received.

Don't let criticism crush you, build on it.

Okay well firstly don't post on youtube under a name that people at school can identify- be more anonymous and then post on youtube and see how it goes. You will never please everyone, so don't try, just do it because you enjoy it and ignore the haters, it's the only way you'll improve.

Never really wanting to be the centre of attention I'm unsure how much help I can be, but :

a) Check/edit whatever you wish to post before posting it. Maybe get others opinions, preferably not those who will either support or mock regardless, but will give genuine constrictive opinion.

b) Learn not to restrict your live by worrying about looking an idiot. That's not carte blanch to do anything, but you'll end up doing nothing if that sort of thing bothers you. Let it be 'water off a duck's back'. It comes, it doesn't overly affect you. You learn to extract anything true from that which is just said to upset.
