if you have ever been called over sensitive, know a couple things..more often than not, they are saying...
1/your truth is uncomfortable for me
2/I have issues processing my emotions, likely from having them dismissed in the past too, probably by a parent figure

this isn't to say you should allow someone to project on you
but it can help you deal with feelings that can be triggering. stopping a spiral
ive been repeatedly told, manipulated, & abused into modifying my display, thus processing emotions, from birth... & it's helped a bit

there is also the person who is an abuser
& tbh whether or not their behaviour is a result of trauma etc, it's still abuse, possibly criminal
its frequent/intense, targeted
also common in many types of relationships, backgrounds etc. a huge issue not really this thread

yet generally, if the trauma/neg experience is in the past, but making you feel youre over sensitive, & prone to attracting comment from self involved ppl, it's worth...
...
1/trying to recognise the trigger, how it feels
2/speak your truth, call them out firmly, directly
& importantly
3/remember youre not over sensitive, but in touch with yourself, was taught whats perfectly natural is wrong, but youre trying, growing
& thats very powerful

if a person who's close to you, is being anything from dismissive to abusive, (ie gaslighting) then consider cutting ties if you wish. temp, perm, lay boundaries. however works for YOU
If you're unsafe, whether from them or your own thoughts, get out/seek help as soon as you can
