I really appreciate your feedback. I don't lack confidence, and happily accept constructive comments from my coworkers. The thing I'm having trouble with is my coworkers treating me like I'm inexperienced and untrained (both untrue). They want me to always trust everything they say without question, but don't want to give my suggestions any consideration. If I discover I'm wrong, I readily admit this and adopt the correct thinking. If they're wrong, they belittle me.

What I like about your comment is that it reminds me that I don't need to get bent out of shape about my coworkers problems. If they aren't good at accepting feedback, they're the ones who aren't learning and growing. I can just keep on progressing on my own until I find an opportunity to work somewhere with a more healthy environment.
