I thought in the beginning that I was just an easily irritable person. But this is beyond that. Sometimes I get so irritated that I clench my jaw so hard it hurts so bad, but I feel that if I dont do this, then I will end up hurting someone else, or doing something else. I just feel like I am going to explode, that my head is going to explode. I can't make things different to work in my favour in the sense that if they went the way that I wanted then I could then "deal" with what is at hand. Blah.

wowww, i'm sooooooo glad you started this topic. Because i totally relate to this. I just had the worst of this 2 days ago. I felt like i was going to explode. I have mood swings like crazy. One minute i'm ok, the next minute i have so much anger and frustration inside of me that it makes me sooooooo depressed. I hate the feeling. Its like i have no control over myself. Its like i want to explode. And then i start arguing with those around me because i'm so irritated by everything and everyone. I just remember breaking down into tears cause i have had it. This really worries me. When i get this irritable feeling, it really brings me down. I feel stressed, angry, i keep worrying, thinking negative, putting myself down, feeling insecure, etc etc etc. I'm working on this.....i need to get stronger here. About the jaw thing, i thought it was just me. After my small car accident, i noticed my jaw was hurting. Its so tight and it ends up giving me a headache. So now i know its not totally from the accident. Its also caused my anxiety/stress. Thanks for starting this post! Its helpful to know that i'm not alone here!

Yes, I do. In fact I do it on a regular basis. Not only my jaw, but I have so much tension in my back and neck that I end up making myself have a headache. I especially do this at work. Over the counter pain releivers dont work for the tension pain either.

Wow, I can totally relate to what both of you have said. I get horrible mood swings for no reason at all. Sometimes I feel like the whole world is against me, or out to get me. I get so tired and frustrated. Sometimes it's a struggle for me to do normal everyday things like cooking, cleaning, going to work, etc. I feel like it's all in vain. These things have to be done every single day even if I dont particularly feel like doing it. It never ends. Sigh.....

Do you ever clench your jaw it hurts because you're so irritated?
19 years ago 0 222 logo logo logo logo logo logo logo logo logo logo 0
Absolutely! Sometimes I feel like completely blowing up. Like sometimes I'll be doing the dishes and I'll have to fight the urge to throw the dishes through a window. It really bothers me! My mom was always violent - throwing things, screaming, breaking things, beating my sisters, etc.... I do NOT want my kids to ever know what that's like so I always leave the room if I ever feel like I'm going to crack. When I feel myself getting over stressed like that I take some time out to myself. Like sitting outside and listening to the birds, meditating, reading or taking a drive and screaming to some angry music - my favorite destressor song is Marilyn Manson's version of Sweet Dreams. Whenever I scream out that song I always feel better. Yeah, I'm a dork! ;p Find something that helps you let go of the anger by giving yourself a few minutes to just breathe. It really helps.

I find my attacks and my anxiety are for different reasons on different days. Some days I feel like I am dying. Other days I feel like I am loosing my mind because I am so irritated. Anyone feel like this? I just can't stand anything or anyone, I want to get angry but its like my body doesn't really allow me to it makes my head feel like it is going to explode. I try and shake it, shake it free of these feelings but I can't. So instead I am left there try to take deep breaths, trying to regain normality... trying to be sane...
