I know just what you mean about the difficulty of holding on to the idea that it's your playing being judged in this situation, rather than you yourself. I don't know how to do it other than to continuously remind yourself, but it's certainly something I've encountered with writing as well. And I'm glad that you have a supportive group of friends to help you through--perhaps that also helps as another way to remind you to distinguish your playing from your worth as a person?
It's so difficult to keep something as personal as your sound as a player or as a writer from getting under your skin... It certainly helps when someone else reminds me too:)
