What is wrong with me? I'm ready to explode at anything
Serious. The other day in traffic I almost lost it. Then today when I was at the supermarket I felt super rage at some tool trying to use too many coupons. And now, I'm trying to calm myself down so I don't go ballistic on my sister's puppy that is being irritating.
I don't get it, I have no reason to be filled with such anger right now.
Oye. This is annoying.

1. My good man,
what's new?

You are high strung. You feel much. And now, you're overwhelmed. It could be anything... the point is, you need to de-stress. Meditate. Breathe deeply. Think about it. I wish you well.

2. Nothing new, I wish there was
Then I would know why I'm on such a short fuse.

5. You don't think the condition of the whole fucking world
combined with the chaos of one's personal life isn't reason enough?

Your reaction is the only one over which you have any control. I think though that when you're young it's good to be on fire. Stressful though, at times. :hug: possibly unwelcome; but there you are. -Lisa

3. go and hug your bears
take a walk in the woods and breathe some fresh air. Nothing and no one is worth that kind of stress.
If that doesn't work, have a beer or your favorite drink and curl up with your favorite book or TV show. It will pass. :D

12. It's probably because people keep fucking with you.
Watch Taxi Driver a few times and call me in the morning.

15. There's nothing wrong with you
I think everyone goes through periods like that; I know I do. And it's worse when I don't know what's triggering it. That's when I can get self-destructive and stupid so I tend to try and hide.

There's nothing at all wrong with you, especially since you seem to be aware of it and are able to handle yourself.

:hug:

Are you direct injecting or just getting it from your food?

17. Prozac can be your friend.
It's not healthy to be angry all the time... bad for the blood pressure for one thing.

18. You have two possible solutions:
A) Drink more.

B) Drink less.

I'd recommend trying Option A first.

23. I wonder
if it's cause the girl is not around right now. That's some serious withdrawal from those love endorphins. It's for real. I mean, you're still in love, but you aren't having the closeness and affection...it'a a real thing. Respect it.

I don't deal well with that stuff. It's been about a week since I had one of those things and my reaction is almost always to do something stupid and/or self-destructive. That night I went running, after dark, wearing headphones. And then of course I was crippled for a few days because for some reason my legs are messed up and I can't run right now. Not a good way to cope, but it worked, lol. Exercise always helps me...there was nothing else I could think of and I had completely bottomed out that night so that was the least crazy (believe it or not) thing I could think of to do. There has to be a better way, lol. If you figure it all out, let me know.

25. I will
Yeah, I think I've chalked it up to the girl not being around. Even though when I initially posted the thread I had just gotten back from seeing her. I think the lack of patience is that everything seems to take twice as long because in the back of my head I'm always counting down to our next meeting.
It doesn't help that I'm sick this weekend, though. I can't even get out of the house to have some fun and my head is all foggy, making sad thoughts harder to ignore cause I'm not mentally sharp.
Dammit all. I hope work posts a gig up there in the next six months. This is so lame.

27. Well, take this suggestion for what it's worth...
sounds like either a) your meds need to be adjusted or b) you've recently stopped taking meds and maybe you cycled off too quickly and now you're experiencing mood disturbances as a result.
