self-hatred

well.. i used to be pretty badly depressed as a teenager, but i put that down to the nasty people i was surrounded by. since i came to uni i've been so happy in comparison - i've made loads of good friends and generally feel a lot better about myself. well, up until the past few weeks...

i feel on bad terms with everyone and every slightly negative thing anyone says to me just sticks and sends me on a downward spiral. its getting to the point where i cant even look my friends in the eye and i feel like i'm gonna burst into tears all the time. i'll be talking and i just feel so nervous - even though i'm usually quite confident - and i end up talking rubbish then feeling awful and wanting to curl up in a ball and die. i'm finding myself being really pessimistic and if anyone comments it just validates my already cripplingly low self esteem.

i just don't feel worth anything, i don't like who i am anymore. do these sound like classic signs of depression? any input would be greatly appreciated :smile:
