This student didn't really have a right to give you feedback if you didn't ask for it. I think feedback should always be welcomed when you've asked and when it's constructive i.e you can tell someone is saying it so that your work can be the best it can be for you, and they want the best for you, but you can tell when it comes from a place of ego. Do you think you could tell her how it has affected you so that she knows not to do it again? As she may not know the impact her words have had on you.
When I was in my first year of college my art teacher ripped up my whole double page homework I had done because it was wrong in her eyes, she tore it out the book and put it in the bin. I was always into drawing and I haven't done it since, so for 8 years. I guess maybe try and build the confidence to do the two projects and do them for yourself because you know you can do it if you believe in yourself
I've noticed twice you've used the phrase the comment felt like a reflection of who I am as a person, what does this look like to you?
It’s good that you work hard to gain more experiences, as long as you are capable of doing it. It's important to remember that everyone has their own unique journey and pace, and it's okay to take on only as much as you can handle at a given time. Why do you think you make up a scenario and tell yourself off?
It is understandable to feel that way when you hear those feedbacks. It's important to communicate how you feel about the feedback and try to come to a mutual understanding with the person providing it. As for the scenario, you can consider some questions for your reflection. What can you do to change your scenarios? And what will that mean for you in the reality?
Also, it seems like you are bothered by past events. It might be helpful to speak with a trusted friend or family member, or even a mental health professional, to help you process these feelings and develop coping strategies. Remember to take care of yourself and prioritize your well-being. What do you think will be helpful for yourself?
