What a stupid post!!

Re: How to stop being so sensitive..
if you're around friends and you take everything they say seriously and as a personal attack, i think you need to realize that they don't intend to hurt you on purpose, sometimes people just blurt out whatever's on their mind and don't mean to hurt, they might just be trying to be funny.
Re: How to stop being so sensitive..
You dont have to change it .Just learn to manage it.Share with who understand you .Just because you see things differently and feel more than others doesnt make you the odd one . At least you arent amongst the ones who dont feel anyones pain but their own.
I used to be like a cry baby ,i still am (easily hurt etc) .So i replaced people who used to hurt me with people who dont hurt me and understand the fact that sensitivity comes naturally.We dont chose who we are.And when i know i am too sensitive (prone to be dukhi and cry baby) ,i limit my interaction with people and spend some alone emo time.
Re: How to stop being so sensitive..
How do you know that your friends don't struggle with lack of tact/sensitivty? Most of us are sensitive to some degree and it's necessary to be sensitive as it can also allow one to have empathy for others. If they're disrespecting you frequently, you should talk to them about it and consider replacing them with more considerate friends. OR....if you really do feel you're the problem, then you can try to understand that sometimes people's remarks could be the result of a bad day/mood.....or that they're joking.....and that they're entitled to their opinions and an opinion is not a fact.....as well as trying to understand their failure to do something could also be due to commitments. It's easier said than done and it involves self-talk and getting yourself in that mind-frame to think of other possibilities, etc.

^ Spend a week with him and you may be arrested for murder with no chance of parole. But don’t worry, I’ll help arrange a defense on the basis of justifiable homicide 
Re: How to stop being so sensitive..
^You’re not insensitive, CM. Remember the time when you told me how you cried buckets when Bambi’s mom died?
Re: How to stop being so sensitive..
Lies! Both of you! Lies! Out to ruin my good name. And woman I cried when.....hell I know I gave you examples when I have cried during a movie. I think it was Godfather and something else. Remind me!
And spending a week with me would be Legend-way for it-ary!

Re: How to stop being so sensitive..
Oie. My name CM is awesomesauce! Everybody thinks it means something....maybe it does maybe it doesn't.... :D
Re: How to stop being so sensitive..
learn this reality that being sensitive will hurt you the most. and why on earth would you want to be among those who hurt you. There are so many, already. save your soul from yourself atleast. Dont bother whatever who ever says. unless you stop bothering the world is going to batter you like that. good luck.
Re: How to stop being so sensitive..
Being naturally sensitive is a blessing of Allah (swt), because it is at times an indication of a soft, sincere & humble heart, which observes & thanks more even the apparently minor blessings of Allah (swt) & easily lets out tears to flow in seeking forgiveness & repentance of ones disobedience towards Allah (swt). It is always good to be sensitive towards expectations of Allah (swt), also the feelings & rights of the Prophet (saw), relatives, colleagues, friends,..etc., But when it comes to ones own expectations and feelings, it is better to hide ones tears & console ones heart by giving oneself reasons & justifications in favor of those who hurt us through their words & actions. He didn't mean it, he might be letting out anger of another incident, He might be bored by a failure/ loss, he might not have proper rest, his relative might be ill, he might be under pressure of the load of work, financial problems......etc. If you don't want to bottle up your feelings, be assured that your face expressions had already conveyed the message across, so it is better to not let ones emotions over flow (over react) and counter hurt the one who hurts you.

Watch beheading videos......that will harden you :D
Re: How to stop being so sensitive..
Pinky I am the same - I feel exercise helps, keeping busy and trying to learn that if one person says something - it doesn't mean thats who you are. If someone has a opinion about something and it doesn't agree with yours - its not the end of the world, even though you get worked up about it. It does feel like you are carrying a lump or a burden, but at the end of the day you have to deal with these emotions.
If you are distressed by anything external, the pain is not due to the thing iteslf but to your own estimate of it; and this you have the power to revoke at any moment.
Re: How to stop being so sensitive..

Re: How to stop being so sensitive..
I read somewhere women cry several time a week on average, so your case isn't terribly far out there. How to not be sensitive, I'd say try not giving a **** about anything, but I guess that's easier said than done.
