How to stop being so sensitive? HOW DO I STOP CARING?

Keeping it short... I pretty much care about EVERYONES' opinion. Whenever someone smirks at me, i get upset. If they call me names, I get upset. If they tell me to shut up and tell me my opinion is stupid i get mad AND upset. I hate it when people judge me. My friends, my own family and even strangers have called me stupid. They voice their opinions but won't let me voice mine. I'm a sunny person most of the time, but i'm really beginning to hate people for rejecting me, bching about me and just giving me the up and down look, giving me the ("uh, LOSER!") I fight with my own family. I can't laugh it off. Please help me! How can I stop being so sensitive towards everyones' opnions?

    Removing something is never the solution. Instead of stopping caring, care about only a selected few, and let the rest of the universe know you don't care about them. Don't let anyone outside your circle of a selected few get to you. The world is always working at getting you down. Don't let them win. Keep strong, and keep fighting. All the best !

    P.S. - have gone through this phase. turned out fine.
