I think you've hit the nail on the head here. Those that judge you are dealing with their own issues. I don't think you need to stay completely quiet and let people walk all over you, but I think you need to learn to pick your battles and learn whom you let bother you. For example, if I said something that upset you, well, I'm just some random person on line. If you don't like what I say, then just ignore it. My opinion shouldn't really matter all that much to you because I'm just some random person.

What's that saying: those who mind don't matter and those who matter don't mind?

Pick your battles. You don't have to argue with every person who disagrees with you because it's not worth the stress (and likely you won't change their mind anyways).

Good luck,
