Is it normal to hate everyone?

Depends.It depends

Having moments when you feel like you hate everyone can happen, especially when you’re stressed, hurt, or burned out. If the feeling sticks around, it may be a sign you need some space or support—not proof that you’re a bad person.

A rough day can make every person on earth seem irritating, and stress or disappointment can turn into a broad “I can’t stand anybody” feeling. Sometimes “hate” is shorthand for being overwhelmed, angry, or needing to be left alone for a while.

The feeling itself doesn’t make you cruel; what matters is how you treat people. Taking a breather and getting some distance is fair. If this has become your default for a long time or is pushing you away from people you care about, it may help to talk it through with someone you trust.
