The director said he is uncomfortable with constant attention and has developed ways of making sure he is left alone.
He said: "Appearing to be crazy is a good thing. If you're walking down the street talking to yourself people tend to give you a wide berth!
"But I've always been blessed with being easily ignored or avoided. I think maybe it's because people think I look a little crazy."
Burton recently admitted that he is finally thinking about marrying long-term girlfriend Helena Bonham Carter, with whom he has two children.
His new movie Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street is released across the UK on Friday.
