If it is a cheap shot, lazy generalization, or a rude comment as you hide behind your anonymity,you can either to yourself,or drop dead

Usually criticism does not bother me, for some odd reason these days I am easily annoyed.
@WayneDalton Maybe try and look at it this way - by allowing complete strangers to annoy you , they are controlling your thoughts. Don't let 'em ! (grin)
I'm confused too. I looked a bunch of your old posts and comments and couldn't find anything like what you describe.

Look a little harder
I fear that I am becoming too sensitive, it is an emotion I thought she’d a long time ago.I am right now in a perilous situation in regards to my self image, and have to buttress my own idea of myself, or lose myself again.
@WayneDalton Over the past several years (5-6) I'd been in an increasingly stressful situation. I thought I was losing it. Up and down emotionally and feeling increasingly unstable I decided to find a therapist. I followed her advice and am on much firmer ground. Don't be afraid to ask for help.
@yppahagn I do see a counselor, does not work as well as I had hoped
People who can't argue a point, or get put into a corner when their POV is dismantled, find it's easier to attack you personally than to admit you have a point and change their mind. It's rampant on here, which is disheartening. I initially assumed atheist/agnostic would be better in this regard than the religious nuts we routinely engage with; I was wrong...

After bothering to read some of your posts it seems like they often start with a negative tone. Perhaps try being more upbeat, or just fake it like many of us do. Just my 2c

What I had posted depended on my state of mind at that moment.My moods are like the weather, simply wait a short while and it will change.
Charades?
Give us a clue what you are referring to.
As it would appear that the comment above is also a lazy generalisation.

I don’t recall mentioning charades.
Without any context, it is not possible to comment. I hope people are not leaving nasty or unhelpful messages, but beyond that I am at a loss to assist you.

I am not asking for assistance,I am looking for acceptance
@WayneDalton I have no idea what sort of comments you are referring to. I just wanted you to give a clearer indication of the reason you were so frustrated by the responses you were receiving. Without the knowledge of what you are referring to It is impossible to say anything else to you.
??? What does this post refer too.....?
