I think we mostly agree - I'm with you that "Ignore the haters" is usually a good, supportive thing to say in these situations.

Are you sure that you want to be told "You're too sensitive" when you're having a vulnerable moment, and someone happened to criticize you in an area where you have some insecurity? Though it may be true, don't you already know it, and really don't want to hear it at that moment?
