My daughter hates everyone

I’m not sure this is a self-image issue. A friend’s girlfriend went down the same trajectory. Very smart, but began having paranoid episodes (similar to what your daughter had with the teacher). She was always mistrusting of other students while in school, and thought co-workers were scheming against her, hopping between several jobs until he got her a place in his office. It was only after she started complaining about co-workers he’d known for years plotting against her that he knew something was seriously wrong. I don’t remember the diagnosis, but I know she had to receive regular therapy and medication (think she still does).

It may (I hope it isn’t!) not be the same thing, but it sounds alarmingly similar. Imho, get her to a shrink.
