Hi BlazeStorm, I really appreciate you sharing what’s on your mind. Feeling sensitive to criticism and emotions is more common than you might think, and it often comes from having a deep capacity to care or a history of experiences that made you more aware of your feelings. It’s also possible that past experiences have shaped how you interpret feedback, making it feel more personal or threatening.

Building emotional resilience can involve practices like self-compassion, learning to differentiate between constructive and harsh criticism, and developing thicker emotional boundaries. Small steps like reflecting on your feelings, practicing mindfulness, and challenging negative self-talk can gradually help you feel more in control and less overwhelmed. Remember, becoming more resilient is a gradual process, and it’s okay to seek support from friends, loved ones, or professionals if you want additional guidance.
