Elin, i know that scare when you wanna ask sb for feedback (I've experienced it a lot). Surprisingly, when i get that feedback, first i laugh at myself for overthinking what to do, then i tell myself: "See? It wasn't that hard".

And about knowing people's opinions, i've changed from "I want all people to like what i do" to either "That's what i wanna do. I wanna know what you think of it", or " Don't waste my time telling me your unsolicited opinion. I don't give a shit about your opinion".

Haha yes, you’re so right about this Negar!

Most of the time I’m very good at blocking the noise, but then there are days when it’s harder 🫣 thanks for stopping by 🥰

Yes, you're right. There are days that the noise becomes harder to block. On those days, my strategy is to let my anger out like an erupting volcano and retreat to my room (oh and don't forget to say this: "I want you to leave me alone as long as possible"). I'm sure you'll find a way more suitable if this doesn't work for you.
