I have this problem where I easily take offense on little things. It has to do with my family background with my step father when I was a kid. I can't take criticism and I get touchy over little things I don't need to be and it's still a problem till this day. the rest of the story is in the Please pray for my sensitivity theard.

What advice can you give me? Sciptures would be good too. Thanks.

Everyone can change. It's not easy, of course, and it requires sacrifice. But we all change when we feel the need to.

If you want to be less over-sensitive, then you must work at it. Meditate on how you want to be. Picture events that cause you to be overly sensitive and then think about how you want to react to those situations.

When such a situation turns up, force yourself to react differently - more in line with how you want to react opposed to how you naturally react.

At first it will seem like you are just acting - putting up a false front. That's true to a certain degree, but if you continue to practice the way you want to be, even when you don't feel like it, that will help you change and shape yourself until you no longer have to act - it will be your natural reaction.

If anyone (who you love and loves you) accuses you of being untrue to yourself or putting up a false front, simply explain to them that they are correct, but you are trying to change and would appreciate their help, prayers, and support.
