I get irritable too sometimes, but it usually has a trigger, not out of the blue. It's usually when I'm trying to control my pain with my mind and do chores while pets and family are also making more demands at that moment. Another trigger is being woke up by loud noises from family or pets during normal sleeping hours. The malcontent feeling comes a bit later when I realize this is not the behavior I expect from loved ones, nor what I would expect of myself. Some say depression is anger turned inwards, perhaps irritability is low level depression.

Have it on occasion but I m on a depression med to even out things. Did you have issues before like during your period. My husband used to call PMS "Pretty mean Susan. Lol

I think it’s a big part of fibro. When you’re in pain or fatigued it’s easy to get irritated!

I feel like I’m more irritable especially when I’m in more pain. Like right now, I’m leaning on my faith and taking deep breaths. Cutting down on sugar and eating healthier. Scalp is super sensitive after I wash/dry and styled it. I feel like I have better days than bad ones in terms of being down. I can hope this answers it for ya…. God bless🙏💜
