Why do I feel so irritable?

[KathrynTaylor]

Everything’s going the way I want it to. I’m making new friends, I’ve got two good men interested in me that are penpals and I’m starting a new job after many years of a long illness. Now everything is working out. I feel irritable, even angry. Right when I’m getting everything I want. Why is this?

Possibly a hint of slight depression, a friend of mine had a similar feeling years ago. However it was only a short-term thing.

Perhaps your feeling frustrated that a relationship had developed yet from your two penpals.

[KathrynTaylor]

Maybe. It’s been 5 years since I even kissed a man. Let alone had a date.

[MrCommodore]

In that case it's probably just that your missing that, I mean missing the real life relationship, like spending time together each day, sharing your life properly. The world can be a lonely place, even for people with busy social lives.

the best guess i can think of is you were side tracked from what you were saying from going through one thing after another and now with everything in place your mind kinda sorta needs to be occupied and the smallest things can put you on edge. just a wild guess 😃

Maybe you're still carrying some baggage in the past? Regrets, trauma, grudges, or any bad feelings you haven't let go of from before. If not that, i can't think of anything else.

It sounds like chaos is your comfort zone... things are going great embrace that

That's called "imposter syndrome" kiddo.

Could be you're hiding something wrong you've done, and are subconsciously anxious about the payback. Else you're insecure and not sure how to handle success.

Probably because you're not getting boned

[KathrynTaylor]

Possibly. Yeah. Haven’t been boned in 5 years.
