This one's complicated. It's both. I was considered a model employee at my last job because I could easily deal with troublesome guests who were throwing fits. It's what I'm used to, I'm used to being insulted and cussed out and having to be the one diffuse hostile situations and remain calm. I mean, it was just a hotel job, but some of the guests were crazy mean. So, I knew not to take that personally. It didn't matter was just some idiot causing a scene.

However, anything coming from someone whose not a stranger hits home. If they know me at all, in any capacity, it really wrecks me. Sometimes it's not so bad and I roll with it, but it still lingers in my mind and comes back later when I'm having a panic attacks or in crisis mode.

The stuff at my job really did eventually wear me down too. It was a constant barrage of it at home, then at work, it just seemed like it never stopped. So I ended up quitting, and I've been unemployed for most of the year. I know I need to get another job... But ugh, feels like I've already got too much on my plate and I don't even do anything.

So basically, I'm a mess and it depends on who is saying it, why they said it, and how close I am with them... But generally I'm in shambles.
