Anyone else get pissy and take it out on others?

I get pissed off/stressy and I don't like it.

If I'm in a bad mood I'm irritable with my dc and snappy. If I'm anxious about something it's worse. I do apologise, usually if I'm pissy I tell my dc (older teens) to leave me alone until I've worked out my mood. I was also like this with exh and was far worse as a teenager/young adult with my parents. I am diagnosed with ADD.

I don't think it's normal though, why should my dc be on eggshells because I'm grumpy. I meditate, do yoga, try to be mindful, have had so much therapy, work on regulating my emotions but I still do it. I know why I do it, my dm did it (although we were actually scared of her and my dc are definitely not scared of me so it's not as bad).

Anyone else? I don't want to be a massive dick just because I'm in a piss.

I think you're female (right?) There is a group on Facebook called adult adhd women uk something like that. Has about 19k members. It is a safe space to talk about this stuff and you will find many people who understand you and offer advice.
