Why do I get so easily offended? Why am I so sensitive? I mean when somebody even jokes around negatively towards me I get upset and my mood lever drops. When somebody gaves me a weird look I already get really offended. When even little kids playfully will say something to me I get really pissed off at them and start to say something back.When I start with someone new people conversation and I disagree with them I try to put them down because I think they putting down by not agreeing. I think everybody is trying to offend me some how and it makes me really angry and negative.What is wrong with me .Could this be due to me having social anxiety and depression?

This could be to do with your depression and anxiety. It can do strange things to you, believe me I talk form experience. Take relieve in knowing your not the only one out there that feels like there loosing grip on reality though, there more of us than we'd dare to acknowledge.
Speaking to your doc is a really good step, they may prescribe you something to calm you down a bit and could also refer you to speak to someone.
I have posted this site a lot but my doc recommened it and its fab and works if you give it as fair trial (web add below). Also try some relaxation CD's, again I have posted this quite a bit, Paul Mckenna rocks he really does.

probably you get offended easily because of low self esteem and lack of confidence in yourself it is an annoying way to live your life when you let other peoples comments and looks dictate your emotions if u have a different opion than some one else, it just means the other person also has a different opinion that doesn't mean they think your stupid they just have a different opinion some times you should ask your self "is it me, or is it them" some people are jerks, but if children's comments bother u then it is probably you
if this bothers you a lot u could talk to a therapist, however i dont think it is social anxiety, or depression, it just may be your attitude as to how you perceive situations if you were more confident about yourself these situations should not bother you there are always people out their with different opinions you cant change that, but u can change your attitude this also may help control your anger hope this helps

I used to be the same way as a kid...
... As it happens though, I was barraged with so much teasing and such crap that I eventually became rather desensitised...
I'm sure you will too at some point... especially if people are actually meaning what they're saying once in a while.
The long and the short of it is that, no matter whether they intend to be mean or are just pratting around... other peoples' opinions don't matter in the slightest. Only YOUR opinion matters for YOUR life... So what if they tease you? So what if they think you're an ugly baboon-butt? So what if they hate your guts or think you have a spoon fetish? ... Most people are idiots and their opinions are irrelevant.... COMPLETELY irrelevant.
The fact of the matter is that you have to be right... and thats difficult when you see other people as a challenge to your authority. Just remember to maintain an arrogant disposition... remember that you're better than them... and that they're just misinformed or clueless.... then it won't matter.
I couldn't give a toss less what people say about me now...

Well don’t use your full energy to find out the reason, though known reason make easy to remedy, try to build your self confidence. It’s very easy to say but not that tough even. Be engaged in reading, what ever you like. If humor attract you then it would be more easy to get involve and you armor would be enough rich to be a dominator in a circle.
Try to travel. And definitely you will not feel that unknown person is teasing you. And colorful character will amazing you the test of living. So no problem, I do believe you are not in problem at all. Positive thing is you can realize your shortcomings. And sure you will overcome this situation easily.

Did you grow up in a home of criticism? That would explain it. Unless you suddenly became sensitive you have to get over your history and realize you are valued. It's mostly a self-esteem issue.

See a therapist before it gets worse.

you've got issues. you're obviously an egotistic a** hole. probably the source of your depression/anxiety as well. perhaps an anger management class would lend insight.
