Bad Moods

It's sad, but I get angry an awful lot, I get angry at the drop of a hat, for not really any good reason, I just have a, as some might say, short fuse/temper. :ness:

I don't usually stay in a bad mood after it though, just a bunch of little things get on my nerves throughout the course of a day. :hmmm:

And I don't often actually start yelling most of the times I get a bit angry though, just impatient, and intolerant...I think it isn't as bad online, though RPing, while fun, is really starting to mess with my head. >.<
 
I'm a rather Chill fellow to be honest. If I get mad it is because I'm having to deal with sheer ignorance or sheer stupidity. There are some mornings where I'm not the easiest to break out of my shell, but that's just because I hate mornings. I can wake up and be active in the mornings, but at the same time I love my sleep and only wake up when I want to rather. If someone tries to get me up, I'm a zombie. I'm none responsive and if I'm asked questions they literally hurt my head.

If I'm stressed out and someone is asking me trivial questions that don't really need answering, I just give them a quick look and tell them their answer .. but try to give strong hints that I'm not interested in talking. Especially the girls at work.. no offense to some of you ladies, but some of ya'll need to shut your damn yappers and get to work instead of asking me 2,000 questions at 7 to 8 am in the morning. Let me get coffee or a cigarette in me, then we can talk. Same goes with some fellas I know, apparently when someone asks you.. "how was your weekend.. " they really mean.. "how was is my weekend" .. so if I don't ask.. then they go ahead and tell me anyway.

I just have pet peaves I guess, and when they are tripped they generally get me in a bad moods, but then that's what music is for.. to tune out the world.

Same here. Most of the time when I was in a bad mood it was because of my old job. The head manager was a idiot and her decisions kept making me want to strangle her. But now that all of that is behind me, I've been feeling much better. Sure people still do stuff that annoys me but that's all it is, an annoyance.

Unfortunately even though music does help, in the most extreme cases, it doesn't help me at all.
 
Half the time, my bad moods are entirely random, other times, a tiny little thing can set them off. Funnily enough, it is never anything major that sets them off. Lucky for me, I only get them once a month or so, but I am a real moron when I do get them. I just try my best to stay out of everyones way when I do get them though, partly because I can't stand the company of anyone else at the time.

It's good to see I'm not the only one though!
 
I get bad moods often especially if people talk to me about serious issues at the wrong time. Right when I wake up is usually one of those times, and those are also the times when the mothership decides it's best to yell at me for things -___-.

Other than that, I'm usually pretty chill. I rarely get angry and I'm generally in a rather happy mood.
 
One thing that can put me in a bad mood is when someone tries to make light of a very serious situation. Like when my aunt was in the hospital, my future sister in law kept trying to make jokes about the whole situation in order to cheer me up. It just made me not only worried, but seriously pissed off.

And I also hate that when I am sad about something, people try to cheer me up because they hate to see me upset. Well I need time to be sad. If my angst goes on for over a week then try to cheer me up. But not right when something terrible happened.
 
I guess I have those days as well.
I wake up, get out of bed, and feel like punching a wall.
I can't exactly explain why, though. There are just those days when it's like I'm programmed to start the day off in a bad mood. =/
Thankfully, the bad vibes wear off as the day progresses.

Other times though, I start the day happy, then get home and have a mood shift or something. I've always thought that it was because I'm naturally bi-polar or something, but idk.
 
It's probably suppressed negative emotions exploding in one go, I don't know. But sometimes it's frustration with prolonged loneliness that the person feels undeserved. You start asking yourself questions like "Why the hell am I always being a nice guy? The hell do I get out of it?". So basically it's an instinctual cry for attention. We are social animals after all. Correct me if I'm wrong, this is just a theory of mine.
 
I don't get my bad moods as often as I used to. I've tended to look on the brighter side of things when I feel one of my moods coming on. It really seems to help make me feel better. Things could always be worse thats how I think of it.

In my bad moods though I am very withdrawn and quiet. I don't like to eat when I'm in a bad mood, I don't like to talk to anyone, I can't sleep. Usually I just watch tv and wait to see if I can work out of it. Other times I go take a shower. I find showering very relaxing though I don't know why. If it's night time I used to go out for a drive. For some reason driving at night I just love it and it calms me so much. But since I live in the city now can't do that so much. Otherwise I do things to get my mind occupied like photoshop or I get really into my research. Productive and relaxing.

Everyone gets them though and everyone deals with them differently. Some people tend to show it more, some take it out on others which I never understood. I'm overly nice when I'm in a bad mood because I don't want anyone to know that I'm in a bad mood, and I feel guilty taking it out on others.
 
I saw the thread title and remembered making this thread.
Id say for me personally ive changed quite alot, i dont nearly get in as many bad moods as i used to. Infact i remember the last really bad mood i got into and it was like.....4 days ago but i had really good reason :wacky: And i mean a really good one. But apart from that i dont get them that often now. Seems nowadays i just dont care as much as i used to, so everything just kinda gets shrugged off i suppose. Either that or theres not as many people around who annoy me ¬¬ bit of both.
 
People just piss me off, mainly. Or work. Or things that happen. A combination of them all.

I'll snap at anyone really and I could care less about what's said back to me. I usually get them more when I'm on my period and girls can understand what I say this. Hormones are all over the place and you just find any reason to snap.
 
I try not to get angry, I generally avoid confrontation. Although sometimes it's unavoidable.
Sometimes I randomly feel angry at the slightest thing, but most times I wouldn't let it bother me; I think it depends on prior events and how my mood has been recently.

I never lash out at friends, and if I ever have i've always felt guilty about it and apologised a thousand times over
Although sometimes someone can just say the wrong comment at the wrong time which really irritates, that's when I tend to snap. :hmmm:
It's rare though, I wouldn't say i'm in a constantly bad mood. Although certain things do obviously go towards it.
 
If I wanna be alone and no one will leave me be, that's when I start getting in a bad mood. Or when it seems that people ask me too much when I don't feel like talking. I try and tell them that I don't wanna talk, but they seem to keep at it. Some days, it's just a combination of little things that build up, and by the end of the day, I'm really not in the mood for anything. Usually those are the days where I'm likely to bite someone's head off.
 
:hmmm:

I get into bad moods a lot but I don't really rage at anyone when I am in a mood. I usually become a bit of a sook and just end up getting upset over everything. I used to have an incredibly bad temper when I was younger, so bad that my mother used to tell me she'd enroll me into anger management :wacky:

Now I have mellowed out a bit and only in really extreme cases will I actually rage when in a mood.
 
My mood tends to depend on many things. How life is going for me at the moment (am I getting along with my family, friends, and s/o and am I finding time to spend time with them so I can have a healthy relationship with them?) How things are going at my work (is there friction between my co-workers and how the unit is functioning as a whole)... and how things are going for me at school (do I have a lot of projects I need to turn in and how many hours I'm spending at clinical) are pretty big things.

I'm also affected by the sleep I get the following night. If I don't sleep well I'll wake up in a bad mood and I'll be tired and quiet for the rest of the day until I can get home and nap or go to bed early.

If I'm sick I'll be standoff-ish, quiet, and I'll retreat from people a bit, focusing more on myself and trying to get better.

"That time of the month" really doesn't affect me so. It used to when I was younger but I think I've become more mellow as a person and I put hormones aside. The pill has helped with that too I guess :P

If it's nice outside like during the summer, I'm usually in a really good mood. The sun and the warmth puts more of a positive spin on the day I guess.
 
@Rapture You sound very similar to me! :)

On the whole, I am very mellow. Stressful situations tend not to get to me and I will always do my best to keep smiling. Furthermore, I don't hold a grudge, so arguments will be forgotten by me often minutes after they have occured. However, my mood is negatively affected by a lack of sleep (I tend to be very quiet), a lack of time to myself (although I love seeing people and talking to them, I need physical space to recharge) and hunger. I absolutely hate having to wait ages for food when I'm hungry. :lew:

My mood can transform from very positive to negative if my mum's in a bad mood too as she tends to be a bit aggressive about small things. >_< Most of the time, I just leave the argument quickly so we both have space. :)

Work-wise...Well, my job is fantastic and hasn't put me in a bad mood, but writing essays at Uni was stressful! I was very worried about failing and spent most of the year working. I had roughly 3 full days off... When I went home for the holidays, I really didn't liking hearing my parents say 'stop working' or 'you're working too hard.' I was reluctant to engage in other activities, too. It was a tough year. :wacky:

Sunny weather pretty much always makes me feel positive too! I love the landscape in the sun! Everything is so much more colourful, bright and beautiful. I'm not too fond of hot days, but those don't put me in a bad mood. I just feel very lethargic.
 
Seeing humans sets off my bad moods. Lol just kidding....

Yeah I think for me, I get them because I'm tired. Once I get in bad mood mode, there's no stopping my being an arse until I've gotten sleep. I mean, serious sleep. 10 plus hours.

Anyway, yeah that's my deal. Everybody around me already knows when I'm gonna be an arse, so they're prepared.

So in other words, you went from exploding to imploding.
But you still explode under extreme circumstances, and it is an even bigger explosion then normal because imploding doesn't filter out those feelings as effectively.

When you get moody, just realize that everything in the universe is the same manifestation of one thing, and that your anger is just the opposite charge of happiness both pulling from a neutral center- the center of the universe- you.
