I am the same way. I take everything way too seriously. Even the slightest provocation makes me want to cry. People have always told me to "grow a thicker skin". I used to think that I would naturally outgrow my sensitive nature, but I'm almost 22 and I am still as sensitive as I was when I was half my age. I have tried asking people how to be tougher but no one has been able to give me a good answer so far. :S
Don't know if it will be of any use but I used to be hypersensitive too and the only thing that made me tougher was to confront those difficult situations and stop running away from them. Eventually you'll catch up with the rest of the world and react normally to those circumstances that easily broke you down.
Is it normal to be as sensitive as you were when you were four?
