My problem is that when I'm at home or when I'm in the car I see myself like relly pretty. But when I'm in school I see myself not as pretty. The really weird thing is I don't change any thing and people say I look the same? Do you think my problem is that I just have low self esteam?

the exact same thing happens to me.
in most schools, there are popular people who are much prettier than the average person.
they can discourage you and make you feel very unattractive.
what i do is make a list of at least 10 great things about myself.
carry it in your pocket at all times, and just pull it out and read it to yourself.
also, if you listen to music on the way in, the type of music you listen to can affect the way you feel during the day.
try listening to music that is calm and up beat, instead of any kind of metal or offensive music.

I think when your alone you see yourself as an indivisual. But when you go to school you start comparing yourself to all the other girls and start pointing out every little flaw. Just my opinion cause i do this too.

You are seeking approval outside of yourself. That's low self-esteem.

Perhaps you have what is called "social phobia"?
