I am ridiculously sensitive. Even though i absolutely hate almost everything about myself, hearing it from someone else would be... disasterous for me. I'm way too sensitive.

Today, i finally put something i worked rather hard on online, and i got very very little response. So i advertised it elsewhere, in the "picture post" forum. It took... Maybe an hour for someone to say anything, and it wasn't even about the picture. Well. Yes. I'm not saying i deserve the attention, and this isn't really the point. The point is that i'm too sensitive! I need to not be this way because people are jerks!

Anyways. Does anyone know of any ways to be slightly less this way? It's ridiculous.

And, i'm sorry if this is in the wrong forum. I'm not sure where to put this.

I can relate to you in that. I feel the same way as you. Sorry I can't be much help because all I've ever been told is "Don't take it so seriously". Which is harder than it sounds. Sometimes when someone makes a joke at me I say "It was just a joke shrug it off and make one back" but it's hard.

Sorry I'm not any help sad
I'm here if you want to talk though.

I am too. If someone says anything negative about me, I take it really personally. More so if it's coming from a close friend or my boyfriend, etc.

I am chalking it up to "fear of failure". If your problem doesn't get better, you could consider counselling.

I don't think it's fear of failure. I fail at almost everything all the time. You could be right, though.

I've already got counselling...
