Feedbacks are great especially for writes but not should be taken to heart, really because some can really weigh one down. I am glad you had a great team to help you out when things got crazy.
Sometimes, we do forget to ask for help and let the whole burden stay on us when we could have easily done that and save us and the people around us some time.
Great post, this definitely will go a long way in helping people here deal with such things. What's this book that you are planning on publishing or have you published it already?
