Is it normal that most of the time i am hostile around people?

In the past, I've been raped, beaten up, discriminated, humiliated, harassed, deceived and neglected.

I have trust issues, I lack self-esteem and I'm very paranoid.

I always get defensive whenever someone asks me something because I feel like I am being integrated.

I get angry very easily as well and I prefer to be alone most of the time, not because I want to but because I feel like I can't trust anyone.

    I'm very sorry to hear that.

    I can empathize with you as I feel similarly. When you go through life dealing with such ugly people, it's powerfully tempting to abandon all hope and retreat to a world of misanthropy and cynicism. That's what I did for a while, until I came to the realization that that's just no way to live.

    Try to accept that not all in this world have even a marginal interest in hurting you, and from there seek out the good whenever you can. It's not necessarily easy - trust me - but it beats the alternative.

    It sounds to me like you might have post traumatic stress disorder and I would highly recommend that you get some therapy to help you cope. At least you know what happened to you and you're not in denial.

    Not to be a total ass, but it sounds as if you are going to lead a very lonely and unhappy life, if you do not find your way out of this attitude.
    There are so many wonderful people out here who do not rape, beat up, discriminate, humiliate, harass, deceive and neglect others.
    Perhaps if you just moved somewhere new, and began fresh, you could find a few people with whom you could enjoy a bit of human contact.
