People these days have got extremely irritating. Especially with the things the say or do. One thing will piss me off and then I'm annoyed for the rest of the day. Is it normal?
The phrase "People these days" implies that you haven't always been this irritable, correct?
Sudden (or even gradual) changes in irritability can be caused by insomnia and other sleep problems, continuous exposure to physical or emotional pain (think of how irritable hungover people generally are), hunger and/or excessive dieting, normal fluctuation of hormones (this applies to both men and women), or stress.
If you have been dealing with periods of irritability on-and-off for a long time, it could be a symptom of depression (particularly in teenagers and young adults), Bipolar Disorder, ADHD, PTSD, OCD, a personality disorder or other mood disorder, or an anxiety disorder. It could also be related to a thyroid problem or other health issue.
If I had to guess, it's probably just stress and possibly one or two of the other issues in the first list (like natural hormonal changes or sleep deprivation).... Irritability is oftentimes a symptom of depression that is overlooked (most people associate depression with sadness, not anxiety or irritability) and presents itself most often in teens and young adults, so that could also be possible, especially if you have other symptoms of depression or low serotonin.
If these feelings continue for more than a couple weeks or become so intense that you have trouble coping with them or respond in a violent fashion, I'd get checked out by a doctor to make sure it's not a symptom of something more serious.
Sometimes people are just annoying though.
I feel like I wrote this? I completely understand where you're coming from. Our nerves get the best of us when others can easily avoid it and move on. It sucks cause like said above, its probably something so simple but it ruins your day. It's like you want to let the person know where they stand and why they annoyed you and after that you can move on. You can't help it so overall based on relating to you too I believe it's normal.
I agree that people can be quite irritating, but unless something truly catastrophic happened, I'd just let it roll off and enjoy the rest of your day.
I think this is very normal. I usually try to not let little annoyances ruin my day but I think a lot of people do.
It started happening 3 years ago when I move to a new place I don't exactly like.... Everything about this place annoys me including the people. Besides the place I'm still irritable.
Thank you someone understands me. Oh and for the person who called me a bitch thanks for the complement it feeds my ego.
