I'm sorry that you are going through this. I often feel like books on bipolar leave out some of my experiences, too.

I can't stand criticism myself either; it completely floors me and could cause me to dissolve into a flood of tears. I don't think that anyone is out to get me, but agreed that I beat things and scenarios to death. Your expression of over-analyzing things is very apt - that's what I do too. I was always WAY too sensitive, and it used to worry my Mom when I was young.
Thanks for this!
