Congratulations for taking the terrifying leap! I hope that the results will be useful for you. It's good that your friend knows that this isn't the time for any other feedback than whether she thinks you should keep writing it, and it's really good that you also know what kind of feedback you can handle at the moment. In the past I've had instances of both giving and receiving feedback that was the wrong kind for the moment, and it can be really difficult. Hopefully you've also been able to tell the other people what kind of feedback you feel up for at the moment?
My take on things is usually that if you believe in it yourself, you should keep writing. But I know sometimes one needs someone else's opinion.
