Yeah, dude, two things.
1) You're at work to work. If you get along with your co-workers, great. Have fun. If you don't get along with your co-workers, ignore them and focus on the job. That's what you're there for, after all. If you have to deal with them, be polite and professional. There's no excuse for a lack of professionalism and showing a little bit of detachment in that way will take you far.
2) You don't have to have something wrong with you to go see a therapist. Or, if you prefer, we all have things wrong with us; whichever way you'd rather look at it works. Regardless, a therapist's job is to help you sort out issues just like this one, in order to be happier and healthier overall. There's a huge stigma attached to the idea of therapy that really isn't deserved. I've seen a therapist in the past and a large number of our members here see one regularly. That doesn't mean we're crazy, have issues or are in any way abnormal; it just means that we see the value in discussing our problems with a neutral third party.
Since you're in college there's probably a program available to you to allow you to see a therapist at a reduced cost. You shouldn't be afraid to avail yourself of it; you may be surprised at what you can learn.
