My Reflections

irritated easily?

Are you irritated easily? What do you do when you are feeling irritated?

It honestly depends on my mood or if I have missed a dose of my antidepressant. I have a depression disorder. I also have issues with anxiety. Now this does not give me an excuse to act out. However, it does help me to understand why I react the way I do sometimes. Some days, I get on my own nerves. LOL I can't be perfect all the time. Ha-ha. Yes! I try to do what's right, but I am far from perfect. I still sin willfully and accidentally. Anyway, back to irritation. It is very hard to fight your emotions when you are irritated. I just have to take a few deep breaths at time and start over. Or I have to remind myself why that is not the legacy I want to leave. I pray. Sometimes, I force myself to praise God even when I don't feel like it. It reminds me who is in charge and changes my focus from me to him. Be angry and sin not and don't let the sun go down on your wrath is a Bible verse that is also in the back of my mind. (Ephesians 4:26)
