You could have a anxiety disorder,or you could have Avoident personality disorder:

Diagnostic Features:

Anxious (Avoidant) Personality Disorder is a condition characterized by extreme shyness, feelings of inadequacy, and sensitivity to rejection. These individuals feel inferior to others. This disorder is only diagnosed when these behaviors become persistent and very disabling or distressing. This diagnosis should be used with great caution in children and adolescents for whom shy and avoidant behavior may be appropriate (e.g., new immigrants).

Complications:

Loss and rejection may be so painful that the individual with this disorder will choose loneliness rather than risk trying to connect with others. The individual with this disorder has few close friends, but often is very dependent on them. Individuals with this disorder are described by others as being "shy", "timid," "lonely," and "isolated". Their occupational functioning may also suffer because they avoid the social situations that are important for job advancement.

Comorbidity:

Mood and Anxiety Disorders (especially Social Phobia), and other Personality Disorders (especially Dependent, Borderline, Paranoid, Schizoid and Schizotypal) frequently co-occur with this disorder.

Associated Laboratory Findings:

No laboratory test has been found to be diagnostic of this disorder.

Prevalence:

The prevalence of Anxious (Avoidant) Personality Disorder is about 0.5% to 1% of the general population. It is seen in 10% of psychiatric outpatients.

Course:

The course of this disorder is chronic. This disorder is usually worse earlier in life and often improves in middle age. This avoidant behavior often starts in infancy or childhood with shyness, isolation, and fear of strangers and new situations. Unfortunately, for some, this avoidant behavior persists and intensifies into adulthood; thus they become diagnosed with this disorder. This disorder is equally frequent in males and females.

Or you could just have really low self asteem,lol dont worry,I do too,even though people tell me I look just fine.

I still hate going places.

First off you are definitely beautiful! I can definitely relate to your insecurities though. I've have always felt like a disgusting person for as long as I can remember. I had a very dysfunctional childhood, which I believe is the main cause for it, and because of that I have been dealing with eating disorders for 7 years. I really hope that is something you never go through, because it's so so hard. If you are still in high school, then I'll tell you that it get SO much better after you graduate. And even if you've already graduated, it is always going to get better with age! With that being said, I'm a strong believer in changing yourself in anyway you think will make you feel better about yourself. I got breast implants when I was 19, and it helped my self-esteem by like 100%. They're not huge, just a full B. But before I was completely flat and now with a better boob to stomach ratio, I've gained a little weight and I feel SO much more confident. So if there's anything about yourself that you really really dislike, enough to have surgery for it, I highly recommend saving up and just doing it! You won't regret it. About the financial situation I can definitely relate to that as well. After I graduated high school and got out of my mom's house, which was what was holding me back, I did everything right. I started college, I got the boob job [which of course helped my self-esteem], I bought a house, I got a promotion at work that was full time [a position that only one person can hold at a time], I was promised another promotion as soon as I got my degree, I was on a plan to graduate in 3 years [with a 4 year degree], I got engaged to my boyfriend of 4 years, I bought a brand new car about a month and a half before graduation [because I was extremely financially stable and I knew i was getting another promotion], then one month after I got my car and two weeks before graduation, I lost my job, also loosing my promised promotion. TWO WEEKS. My 21st birthday was also a week after graduation and I had a trip planned to Las Vegas that has been paid for 6 months previously. So now here are I am 5 days before I turn 21 and leave for Vegas. I still don't have a job, I have hundreds of dollars worth of bills a month, and of course I wanted to have plenty of money to spend in Las Vegas for this once in a lifetime opportunity, but now I'm broke and don't even know how I'm going to pay all of my bills next month. My point in saying all of this was to say that no matter how well off you are and how hard you work, and even if you do everything right, financial situations like this one can come up. Trust me, I hate myself almost more than I ever have before. But that doesn't mean it's my fault, and yours isn't your fault either. Just work as hard as you can and do what you can do, and in the end everything will be ok. c:

I had the same problem when I was your age. I still have self esteem issues and I am getting ready to turn 28. It never truly goes away, but surrounding yourself with supportive people helps. When people tell you that you look good or that you are smart or sweet, that helps your self esteem rise. If you surround yourself with negative people, then your self esteem will drop. You can make or break this problem by finding good influences in your life.

Happy birthday.
