The world requires a thick skin. This is one of life's lessons. Learn it or buy stock in kleenex.
I used to be one of those really critical people who got devastated by criticism...I think I've mostly grown out of it. One good thing to do, is don't have unreasonable ideas about your own skillz and talent -- also realize, even good writers are capable of writing drecky boring wankfests. Art is designed for an audience -- if it's not reaching one, it's failing. Simple as that -- rework it and try again.
