How can I become more thick-skinned (not so sensitive)?

Answer 1

just realize that whenever you are dealing with a crappy person, they are acting that way because of tragedies in their own life and not because of you. Their parents probly hit them or something for them to be so screwed up.

Answer 2

I think u are refering to how to become less "Thin-skinned" right?
Thin-skinned basically means that a person is easily get embarrassed and quite sensitive and caring for what others think of u.. I have to admit that i'm this kind of person, no choice, this is my character and the character share my the majority of women. It is well-known that we women are sentive creatures comparing that of men. Men are more "think-skined" and manly and they always can act well to hide their feelings.
Do u think to be thin-skinned is a bad thin? Not really, u can reserve what u are, but just try to change a bit, depending on the occations. Like in the public, sometimes we need to cover our feelings and personal ideas, so that we won't offend other people.
Say, is ti really hard to completely change your nature, but we can improve and change partically, to our own goods. Why, in many occations to being sensitive is a good thing, as we can use our 6th sense to feel things and detect things that men can not! Maybe men are jealous of us, who know? (;

Answer 3

First I might suggest asking yourself why you feel so hurt when someone (whether they are right or wrong) is critical? It is much the same if you wanted to control an anger control difficulty. You first have to recognize how you react when you are criticized. What subjects are you most sensitive to criticism? Examine each area in relation to your self-esteem in that area. Then take each area and strengthen your confidence level in that one area. then go on to the next one. if you know and are confident in your attributes in certain area you will be far less likely to give any serious consideration to criticism in that area. You will ignore the person and the criticism.

Answer 4

I believe that there are triggers to your reactions. The mood that you're in during the incidences mostly determines how you react to the situation. I believe you should examine your feelings and try to ask yourself why you felt as such. I believe that you will find that the reason is totally irrational and illogical. ( why be influenced by other people when all at the end, it's yourself that matters? etc..)

Answer 5

why do you value negativity, and hang on to such.. as for you to feel hurt by words ( and keep in mind a word only has the value YOU attached to it ) means you value what people ( and there you must define your relationships.. and their respective value to you ) say to you.. fine if it's nothing but good words.. bad if it's negatives.. it shows that your lacking in your beliefs about hwo you are and what you think you mean to others, and until you get that in clear focus and learn to lie yourself, other people will get to you and push your buttons. being thick skinned and not caring about negative are 2 different things, as people who are thick skinned also insulate themselves from the good in life, where as people who adopt you're not raining on my parade fare far better in life as such negative commnets do not hurt them and if anything you pity those who make such comments out of ignorance, lack of education, insecurities.. ect.. asd you know their life are filled with much more strife than your for them to strike out verbally.
