Sorry the person on the other board said things that made you uncomfortable Deneb.
You've probably heard this before, but is it possible that it's not just other people, but something in yourself that upsets you?
When I'm hurt or angry, part of my reaction comes from my sense of myself, even if someone put me in touch with it.
When someone says they don't like what you've said, it might hurt your feelings. Even it seemed unkind, sometimes we misunderstand what people intend, or how they think we'll be affected.
Even if it was unkind, if you feel good about yourself, it may hurt your feelings, but you'll still feel okay about yourself. The hurtfulness doesn't need to last long, or throw you off track.
Maybe you don't accept yourself for who you are? Is that possible?
