So I find that I’m one of those people that is always annoyed…by the littlest things. The hacking of my uncle’s cough. The left-over popcorn bowl on the counter. The driver that drives 25 in the express lane. My coworker who insists on dumping her work on me.
I described this to a doctor a little over a year ago, and guess what she prescribed me? Xanax. Xanax is great, but not for a former alcoholic/drug-user. I neglected to tell her that bc I just wanted to be happy and have the problem solved. So I got medication, and on top of that…I realized I had a new addiction to kick. So I quit taking it, and I miss the calming ability it gave me. And anyone knows they can’t give you that stuff forever. It’s practically lethal on it’s own. But it sure did work…I just can’t fathom being "drugged" (by anything, even a lesser dose of soemthing else) the rest of my life.
So I’m an unhappy person…sue me. No, I tell myself, "work on it". The most I can find online when I search "I’m Always Annoyed" are tips for yoga, guided mediation, reading the Bible, and so on. But really….none of those are me. I hate yoga. I hate meditation in all forms (I really haven’t the time), and while I don’t hate the Bible…I find that pretty cliche.
Is there nothing out there besides drugs, yoga, meditation or the Bible that will help me get over being so annoyed ALL OF THE TIME?

Ok, I may not necessarily be a HELP to you, but I bet you could USE this "annoyed" attitude of yours. Try this– please, just humor me– write a short story. Or just a paragraph. Even journal it. Just however you want to. Put down your annoyances on paper. Instead of it seeming to be a negative thing, I bet you’ll find it’s actually hilarious. I hope you don’t think I’m a joke, but hear me out. I’m a hobby writer, and I love to read. I LOVE to read stuff written by a sarcastic person, because it turns out to be so funny. Just reading what you wrote didn’t seem nagative– on the contrary, actually. You write well. You express your thoughts well. So what if someone thinks your moody? You may have a talent that you’ve never explored. You may even find that it’s theraputic. Works for me! (Email me if you think I may be on to something here… )
That used to be me. Seriously.
Gotta love the endorphins
I just tried to remind myself that a lot of that isn’t worth getting annoyed by, and that I probably do things that annoy other people.
I also make sure I run three times a day
This is so me! I am like that with my boyfriend. It’s almost as I’m waiting for him to do or say something annoying. I just know already, before he even opens his mouth that whatever he will say will SUCK. I’m overly critical and just a general pain in a neck. I feel horrible with it and wish I could help it… why do i do it? how to overcome it? I feel as I stopped respecting him….please help.
