How often is this happening for you is this something everyday and is it the same people or different people, and how does it make you feel when they say negative comments?

When you are focused on your goals and you believe in yourself and believe you can do whatever you want with your life, negative comments won't touch you. Find yourself and understand who you are and what is it that you want and work to get better and better in the things that you like. Negative comments will always come from people who want you to fail, but you are stronger than that and your life is yours and only you can judge your choices and your actions.

I keep in mind the relationship I hold with these specific people. If it's just some random kid online or adult insulting me, I try to ignore it and give them no response. They are not worth the time nor the thought/consideration of their words. I also consider the source of criticism, whether or not if I did truly deserve the negative comments I get. Example: I would obviously value my coworkers and boss criticism on a project that I have no experience in where as they do, over some random guy on the street saying I know nothing , etc etc/

To deal with people who constantly have negative comments towards you, tell yourself that their opinion does not matter. You are a wonderful person and no one else can tell you otherwise.

I remove them from my life. If they are hurting and not helpful, I will explain how I feel at first. If that doesn't work, I find more positive people to surround myself with.

When people have negative comments for me I usually tell them how it makes me feel, write it down, or just ignore them completely.

You shouldn't stay around such people. I am saying this from personal experience. I found myself in a similar situation a while ago and I decided to cut myself off from them and make new friends. It was one of the best decisions I ever made.

Depends on who it is. If it's a peer or family member(and you care about what you say), you might have to outright tell them to stop. If there was constructive feedback to go with the comment, that would at least be helpful. But negative comments just discourage and tear you down. You don't need that.

Ooh, that's a tricky one! If it's someone who never has anything nice to say, of course I'll try to help them first, but sometimes people just want to be mean. If that's the case, I simply tell them I don't appreciate that sort of nastiness in my life, and if they won't stop then I will not carry on dealing with them. I try to be kind, always, but sometimes you have to be kind to yourself first.

Stay positive as usual. A sun is gonna light up the dark and not gonna destroy by the darkness as it knows somebody need its sunlight.
