ALL of your (our) feelings are valid and real. Honor them and pay attention to them; they are telling you something; never be ashamed of feelings, they are not right or wrong. Unfortunately some people are insensitive and don't understand and say ignorant unfeeling things.

Sounds as if you are an HSP...highly sensitive personality(there is a book on the subject); Iam one also; it is difficult to live (being highly sensitive) in a world where most people are INsensitive. I don't think there is a thing such as being TOO sensitive...most people are not sensitive. Learn toshare your feelings with people who are safe and will validate and understand you. If there aren't any in your life; keep your feelings to yourself, and journal...and find some friends who are like you (hard I know).
