No one can "make" you feel unworthy unless you believe you are. Nasty comments will hit anyone in the heart but if you are secure with yourself you will recover quickly. It is all about how long we carry those insults and think "is this true"? You are worthy and you need to keep telling yourself that. Tell yourself that they are wrong about you and you don't need to prove it to anyone. Focus on the positive and let other's comments make you stronger by knowing that you have people who know you saying good things about you. Good luck and stay strong!!

Become more secure in yourself. I know that's not easy, it's a long and sometimes arduous journey. But figure out who you are, what you stand for, then always behave according to your own conscience.
I've heard it said that you only need the respect of those you respect, the rest don't matter. I guess I'd add to that the respect of anyone you really need to work with or get along with for some reason, even if you don't like them. That may be what's got you spooked, you see the possibility of needing to get along with someone in everyone you meet, so you want them all to think well of you.
Well, if you want your mind to calm down and be a bit more secure, you generally need to go within. For a religious person, that would mean being more regularly prayerful. For a nonreligious, nonspiritual person, it might mean regular exercise and reading and implementing THE RELAXATION RESPONSE by Herbert Benson, which induces feelings of tranquility and security in yourself. For a spiritual, nonreligious person, a yoga and meditation practice would help. Check out anything by Thich Nhat Hanh.
Good luck. If you're a young person, so much the better. It means you've got a bunch of time to solve this issue!

Speaking from personal experience, you have to become comfortable with yourself. Yes, we are not all perfect. Thankfully, because if we were this would be way too boring! You need to recognize your own strengths, inner and outer, and the weaknesses you may possess. For example, one of my weaknesses is that I too take things too personally. I made a promise to myself as the new year dawned that I am going to work to be comfortable with myself and accept all the things that go with me, the good and horrible. I have learned over this past month that I am not as bad as I thought, and that most of the time when people do things to make you feel bad they really feel bad about themselves, etc. If you think you do have some weaknesses or things you don't like about yourself, pick one at a time and try to work on it. Whatever it is, you can almost always improve it somehow or become accepting of whatever it is. I know, for instance, that I have flaws. As part of the promise to myself, I have accepted my flaws and embraced them. I'm an artist in many senses of the word, and I think little flaws make things more interesting and honest. Good luck with your journey.

next time your boss does this to you, think of him in his underclothes or something like that. some human beings feed off hurting human beings and a few human beings might desire to create drama. perhaps write him a notice or letter bitching him out and exhibit your emotions, do exactly no longer supply it to him. Or ask your husband/buddy to be your boss whilst your study this letter to him. might help in case you sense such as you have become a number of those feeling out. good success.

You have to realize that people only have as much influence as you give them. You cant entertain everything that everyone says to you. Have confidence in yourself and you should be ok

You are never going to please everyone. Someone will always be offended, or disagree. You have to love yourself, and value what you believe and do. In the end, it isn't going to matter what they think, and you have wasted all that time, caring needlessly.

learn some snazzy come backs to put them in their place and make an example of someone... for instance... someone comes up one day and calls you a loser who wont get laid.... tell them, "yea.. at least i wont get aids... by the way how are you coping with that anyways"
