Not trusting people is one of those self-reinforcing tricks of depression, I think. If you walk around thinking that people are not trustworthy, they will sense this and they will often (a very sad feature of human nature) harm or attack or exclude you, thus proving that you were right not to trust them in the first place!

There's a song about this too:
People are strange,
When you're a stranger.
When you're a stranger,
People are strange.
Women seem wicked,
When you're unwanted.
Streets are uneven,
when you're down.
-- the Doors
--- adding a verse that should have been there
People are strange,
When you're a stranger.
People seem evil,
when you're down.
