You may be feeling extra sensitive to criticism right now, so if you need a place to feel safe and completely accepted for who you are, turn to your family for the comfort you need. And if you can't physically be in the same room with them, just make a short phone call to see how they are doing. They are always ready to tell you what you need to hear in times like these, and can help you see the positive value in any negative words you have been hearing.
