Dear KodenameKnd:

You are welcome.  You  wrote that you tried CBT (Cognitive Behavioral Therapy) but you were dismissed- why? You wrote that your therapist suggested counseling – but CBT is  counseling, I don’t understand.

You wrote that  you are “very sensitive to criticism”- every person is sensitive to criticism. As humans we need and want to be  liked, to be approved of. We are born with that need. And so, we are born sensitive to criticism.

Your fear of  criticism, of  disapproval is  intense because you received such criticism as a  child, correct? If so, will you tell me about being  criticized at home, as a child?
