i ABSOLUTELY need a psychologist who could help me answer my question?

I have a big problem: my classmates hate me and they think that i am retarded because I am really clumsy. I know I am not so smart but I am not as clumsy as they think I am too. I am clumsy because I am constantly worried about what they could think of me due to the fact that they judge me for everything . I am always embarrassed, sad and alone. I can't be myself when I am with them and I feel like if my real self is locked inside me and no one seems notice who I am really. I try to be myself with all my inner strenght but I can't because my personality seems trappled inside me and it can't escape... this is damaging me in the inside. I don't know what to do. I would like to use my full potential in school and in relationships but I can't. I want to set my personality free but I can't. I don't know what is stopping me! Maybe it's an irrational phobia or something of that sort caused by their harassment... anyway when I seem to be good at something they try to get me down with their insults and they undervaluate my skills. Why do they do that? are they envious? Or am i really retarded as they say? I don't know what to think! HELP!

P.S. sorry if i had misspelled some words but i don't speak english

    First of all, I don't think you are retarted or clumsy. You have your own unique personality and plus nobody is ever perfect. Also you shouldn't let anyone put you down like that or tell you who you are. You are very special, remember that and let people know that. What you can try is, try to join some kind of club in school that can bring you out a little bit in that way you can connect to someone who understands you. If you feel like you need to speak to a psychologist or anyone else that is close to you feel free to speak to them. It might help you in some way. Stay strong and be happy.
