I'm Currently Feeling: | can't control my temper i've been having a bad anger for the last couple of weeks. i guess it's hormones, but most of the time i can't control it.
Yesterday, my HB finished work and phoned me he's having a couple of beer and would come home , i was fine. 30 min. later he sent a msg. said he would be another 15 min. so i said that means 30min. and then 30min. later he said another friend came, so don't worry he would be home soon, then i was quite upset and angry. i went out to buy some dinner, and came back and waited until 9 pm. so i had my dinner alone, i was sooo angry then. when he came home he had dinner, watched TV and then went to sleep without saying goodnight or anything. i went to bed crying saying to myself "this is hormones,not him "
i get angry very easy, just if he doesn't hear what i say for a couple of times or ask him to do something. i even get angry if he turned the TV on too loud.
Do you girls have any anger problem like me  ? I need to sort myself out. | | | | Status: Offline

I'm Currently Feeling: | i would have been upset too if i have to eat dinner alone, but i think that hormones make it much worse. try take yourself out the situation go into your room and sit down for a min take a deep breath and see if you can calm down.
if i know its a particularly hormonal day ill give my DH a heads up about it so that if i do anything totally irrational or shout at him for no reason he just shrugs it off and doesnt take it to heart. |

I'm Currently Feeling: | I would have been upset too in that situation. But I agree- hormones make it worse. I don't get angry so much as just cry and have hurt feelings over any little thing  Like you, I remind myself it's me, not him. And if I'm not sure if it's me or him, I call one of my non-pg friends for a reality check. But if it really is just me, I try to remove myself from the situation and either just go to sleep or do something "feel good" for myself...whether it's a bath or eating a treat. Usually by the next day, I'm over it. Aren't these hormones fun?!?!!? |

I'm Currently Feeling: | I get upset and angry too at the littlest things now. The other day I was on the phone with my mom and was telling her that we'd bought some sheets for the crib and describing the color to me, when she told me that she always bought white sheets I nearly started crying because I was so upset!! |

I'm Currently Feeling: | I get this just about every night, but with my DH it is with work. It really does my head in sometimes. He always just has one more thing to do. UGH! |

I'm Currently Feeling: | it;s amazing how this hormone can do to us. last night i already tried to play games on my computer when i was angry and groom my puppies outside the house when he's in front of TV, but it didn't work though. i felt better in the morning after a sleep. At least i'm not the only one who has this problem. welcome to grumpy club :LOL: | | | | Status: Offline

I'm Currently Feeling: | You're not alone, I get irritated very easily. I get it mainly at work though, there are some people in my office that are just freaking idiots, lol!!! With my husband, I do get frustrated because I have to ask him to do things around the house and I am constantly picking up after him. Also, every time I talk to him he never hears me and I have to repeat myself over and over again and I usually just say never mind and then we are both frustrated. Like last night, I was upset about our taxes and came home in a crummy mood. He knows to just leave me alone to my thoughts but he just had to keep pushing to talk to me. I wasn't mad at him at all, I was just mad about our money situation. So when I am mad, I clean house. My husband left me alone to that and later he said , you know, you do your best cleaning when you're mad. I just had to laugh.
You did have a right to be upset, but at least he called you and told he would be later than planned. Some guys won't even do that. It is understandable to be upset though, I would have been. |

I'm Currently Feeling: | *hugs* hope you feel better soon.
I got majorly mad at my OH on saturday. I had a brilliant day and went to the xfactor live as a late birthday present in newcastle with my mam. My OH was going to a family party, he promised he wouldn't have too much to drink. When i went 2 pick him up he was p****d as a fart and completely ignoring me despite my pleas to leave as i was aching from the long day.
I slept in the spare room and talked about it to him the day after. He said he wasn't 'drunk' because he classes 'drunk' as not being able to walk etc. I don't kno why he's being so difficult or am i just being irrational? I can't stand what he's like when he's had a drink. There are many words i could use to describe him but i wont!
