Does a rose stop being a rose when it is no longer admired? No, it remains a red rose. Does a rose stop being a rose when someone says they prefer lilies? No, it remains a rose. Does a rose stop being a rose when someone calls it by another name? No, it remains a rose. Likewise, your worth isn't based on the objective truth of who you are. That is, your worth is determined by how Allah sees you, not by anyone else.

Within me are a hundred joys, a thousand sorrows, innumerable hopes and heartbreaks, and a small empty corner in which I hide from them all. ~Antonio Porchia
