Dear idontknow:

You wrote: “Even when others are wrong, it’s me who is sorry and feeling bad”-

This means any negative feedback on your work, even when you know the feedback is not correct, leads you to abandon/ give up on your project, preference, like, ,etc.

You asked if I have any tips on how to get over caring so much about any negative input-

No, I don’t have tips. I am recently healing myself from a super self critic. The way to do so is long, difficult, requires at least at the beginning, competent psychotherapy. The process of healing, which requires a whole lot of patience, is about gently (over time) confronting the fear you had as a child: that of your parent disapproving of you. For a child, there is nothing much that is more scary than a disapproving (and aggressively disapproving is worst) parent.
