What has helped me, is to focus on the fact that people aren't necessarily pointing things out to purely bring them to my attention.
I try to see it from their perspective...
Sometimes they're trying to understand me, sometimes they're speaking out of concern, etc.
As long as I can remember that its not a personal attack on my character, and its either concern or curiosity, then I don't have negative feelings building up against them.
After all, I myself will point out if a friend seems "off" to me, and that's out of concern, so I just apply that same logic and afford my friends the same benefit of the doubt.
