You might benefit from therapy to work on your morning thought patterns. Maybe there's some negative self-talk that needs to be corrected. Or some cognitive distortions that need to be checked. Whatever it is, it would help to talk to a professional about it.
As far as your friend is concerned: it's tough to take criticism. It hurts, no matter whether it is correct or not. Since you mentioned that there may be some truth to her remarks, this would be a good opportunity to make amends. It may take some time for your ego to get over it, but you're not a bad person because you made mistakes, as long as you learn from them and move forward.
