Is it really paranoia if they're actually out to get you?

May be relaxation exercises and CBT thinking can help you with this.
May be your expectations about not doing well enough shows in your bodylanguage. That can trigger those who like to mock others to do some form of mocking. When I have had to do teaching I have exercised in front of a mirror to get my body language to show confidence in myself. May be you should try that as well?
