I seem to be in a combative irritated completely hostile mental state today and I can't seem to shake it. It's an odd feeling for me and I don't like it. There is no determinable reason either. ( light bulb just came on) Well unless it's my October funk just running a bit behind. (16 month old son was killed Oct 7 several years back) Well hot dog thats probably it.

Anyone else have days like that.

I have that a lot, but I suffer from anxiety, that’s what does it for me. I’m sorry about your boy, I can’t imagine that pain. There aren’t any words that can make that better. I hope you get feeling better soon

Some people are affected by the shortening of days, but, Providence, few of us have your pain to deal with. Your strength is in sharing. Thank you.

I'm having one right now, as a matter of fact. We lost a young son too, and it weighs more heavily on us around that time of year. Peace to you and your family.

I am a a-hole most days i guess I always figured it was from all the swelling I had on my brain when I had a bad wreck at 17. People say I never was the same again. But I can't even imagine what I would be like if I was to lose my child. You are for sure a better man then me

Harness it, set it aside and label it so you can recall it when you can make use of it.

O I had head injuries to from the same wreck my son was killed in head trauma is no joke.19 year old ran a red light at 65mps in a 3/4 ton and t boned us mainly hitting my sons door.. I had a Spinal fluid leak out of my ear fractured skull, concussion of course. ,Was on a walker 5 months.

Swelling in his skull is what killed my son ultimately. It ruptured/ blew out his spinal column from the pressure. I'm glad your was not as bad and your ok mostly.

I am most productive angry, if I had the energy to maintain a grouchy/angry state of mind everyday I would rule the world. If there was an anger pill I could pop every morning I would probably take it.

I guess what I am saying is try and channel your anger into a productive project... and stay away from bars and drunks during that time.

I lost a 12 year old daughter in 97" and it still causes me to have a bad day on occasion especially around the anniversary and I'm sure it always will. Lots of triggers like a song we used to sing together, her favorite songs, seeing her classmates and their kids etc. Just part of life after losing a child. Sorry for your loss only others that have had to deal with it know how terrible it really is. Nothing in life is as hard as that is!

Some days when everything gets overwhelming I tend to get short tempered. Then I realize that being mad doesn't fix anything. I really NEED my time out on the land to combat that mood.

Yeah on occasion. I'm glad I recognize it now. I give the wife and kids a heads up and a preemptive apology and if I'm short with them it's not their fault.
