I Am a Sensitive Person

Have you ever had so much happen and as a sensitive person you just go numb to deal with it all? It's easier to get through it that way. It doesn't feel like such a big deal. It keeps coming at me in waves I can't understand. I feel nothing, I feel hope, I feel despair, I feel excited, I feel worthless, and on it goes.
Why do I care so much about what other people think of me? Why do I care so much about other people?
I'm sure I'd be more productive and successful if I made myself and my own needs more of a priority. First thing that comes to mind when I think of that is certain people in the past telling me how selfish I am and how I only think about myself. Is it possible to be kind and caring while at the same time be selfish and hateful? Is it?
All I know is that I care way too much if someone is upset with me and for the first time i my life I have a whole bunch of them all hating me at once. I had to deactivate my FB account because of them ranting against me. I've never done that. Many of the people I have as Friends on FB are family or friends that live far away. It's how we keep in touch.
I feel judged, hurt, lost, alone, labeled, like maybe I am a b****, and rejected (I'm minimizing the impact it's had on me) by people who will be a part of my life forever. I love my fiance but his family hates me now. Since we have a child together they will always be somehow in contact with us.
Maybe this is what I need to go through to get over my sensitivity.

Yes and then I break down after coming back from being numb.
