I feel so irritable most of the time

[Tulips78]

I just feel annoyed and at times angry with other people and processes basically all the time. Someone at work today has made Monday SO much harder for me and I'm just like wtf why would you do this? Out of pure laziness and just not giving a shit. I can get annoyed about anything from someone standing too close to me in a queue (why don't people respect other people's personal space?) To the fact that people on mid range incomes are being taken the absolute piss out of by this government and we expected to just lay down and take it. I don't like feeling like this but some days I feel so stressed my head is going to explode!!!!

How old are you @Tulips78 ?

i immediately thought peri menopause.

Same!

I'm in my 30s so I hope not

I'm 30 and going through peri menopause so it could be! Also very intolerant to peoples shit.

I feel the same way and I'm 34 it's a horrible feeling, never used to feel this way

I have regular periods and signs of ovulation

I'm 34. I'm so irritable all the fucking time. I usually put it down to my 7 year old being annoying but maybe there's something wrong with me.

Solidarity.

I recognise your feelings. I find the world very irritating most of the time

Is it related to your cycle in any way? Are you on contraceptives? Have you looked into PPMD?

I'm kind of relived that it's not just me. I was feeling like a weirdo. Not on contraceptives, hormonal contraception doesn't agree with me and I don't need to be on it anyway. Maybe PMDD but is there any help for that?

You sound like me and I’m perimenopausal

I hear you sister! I am older though.

The world has become very complicated though. Things that have been introduced to make life easier have actually made life more difficult. It's also very difficult to get hold of a human to sort things out when they go wrong.

Life was never this hard in the 90s!

I feel like nothing works as well as pre pandemic and people are less considerate than they were
