Feeling angry and irritable way too much

Hi everyone. So i am probably looking for more reassurance than advice as I currently feel like i am not coping well with just day to day life. For the last 2 years me and DH have more often than not been through some really low points in our marriage. Married for 7 years with 2 beautiful girls, 6 and 2. Great life etc and in the 12 years we have been together i can truly say we have always been in love. Things just took a downward spiral and i think i am struggling to bounce back. I have said i want to move on from our issues over the past couple of years and i do but i just feel there is underlying resentment there maybe that means we are both on a short fuse and sort of tip toeing around eachother. There has been no cheating or anything just a lot of silly mistakes and maybe hurtful situations that left me feeling unimportant. And him feeling not able to live up to my expectations. We are working through everything, i am currently doing my PGDE year to be a Primary School Teacher and we generally have a busy life but nothing i feel like other people aren't coping with. I feel angry at the kids and my husband more often than i should. I find a wave of rage coming over me if they are moaning or not listening etc. The mess i am constantly tidying up makes me so stressed. If the house is slightly messy or i haven't properly cleaned it that day i feel mega uptight and can't even concentrate on my work. At school placements i am a different person, all the patience in the world for every situation but every time i am in my house it just feels like a pressure pot. I want to shout less, have more fun again, feel content and not irritated by everything but i just can't seem to get through a day without it at the mo. Any similar experiences out there?
