Furious, ferocious, fragile...

Furious, ferocious, fragile...

I have been feeling quite elevated last few months and mostly content and happy. After another sleepless night I just feel so angry today, a real rage...I have fought with everyone in my family today and nearly beat up 2 different drivers who gave me the shits with their bad traffic behaviour. I just feel like a lioness ready to pounce and got all this pressure in my chest area. Has anyone got any advice for me??? I don't think I will get any sleep again with feeling like this...I was told by Psych to increase meds which I started last Thursday. Such a mess, what to do??

Re: Furious, ferocious, fragile...

Hi Olga, To me is seems like the beginning of a depression.. Are you prone to winter depressions ? Any way I would make a serious attemp to back off of any conflicts , walk away from them, excuse your self with a pretend headache. The more conflicts you enter into ,the worse YOU are going to feel. I find that I calm down if I play burst the bubble games on my phone. Can you take your mind off of things by listening to a talking book ( hear a book ) available at any library to borrow free. If you have a pet ,or a garden , very good for making you feel calm. Be sure you are eating a goon nourishing meal every day ,junk food wont help you ,processed or too much sugar or salt . Definitely stay away from alchol big no,no makes things worse. Hope you can get it to gether soon . @jay2

Re: Furious, ferocious, fragile...

Thank you for that @jay2. You are tight, I need to walk away from conflict. Good idea with game on phone. I calm down with phase 10. I will also go for walks when I can on days I don't work. My medication just got increased, that may have to do with it. I was a bit elevated and now just irritable. A bad trade...how are things for you? Nice weather for gardening. We have sunny days but cold out here in the inland.
