Do not leave a good deed or a good appearance because of these thoughts, since leaving it for people's sake is what the Salaf warned against, and you are not held to account for thoughts you do not choose. Keep asking Allah for sincerity, and always see yourself as falling short before Him. If the problem is waswas and you need professional help do not hesitate to seek out medical help instantly.
