I Get Extremely Irritated! Posted: 12-13-05 07:18am
Is irritability a symptom of depression?
I don't just mean a little irritated, I
mean really irritated over the stupidest
little things, I work in a shop and most
of the time feel like telling the
customers to shut up (of course I never
do), I am like it with my family aswell,
its like the littlest thing gets on my
nerves most days, its been going on for
quite a few months really!
I do suffer from anxiety, could that be
the cause??

I would think so. I have the same thing.
I am irritable most of the day with
everyone because my meds are not currently
working. It is terrible as I treat
everyone pretty crappy. I think anxiety
and irritablity go hand in hand.

Hi,
i get irritable with people mostly when
i'm depressed. Do you have any other
symptoms of depression at all? Are you on
any medication at all that may be
affecting your mood?

I am on the birth control pill, but have
been on it for over 11 years, some days I
am fine, but others I am soooo irritated
at most things, the job I am in has made
me a lot worse!! :(

Hi,
it sounds like you are suffering from
stress - try and think of ways that you
might be able to reduce your stress,
things such as a 10min walk per day might
help you feel better. It's important that
you reduce stress if you have control over
it, because if you don't your feelings may
build up and you could become depressed.
Take good care of yourself.
