Another possibly alarming trend

[vvvexation]

I seem to've become a shade more irritable of late. I've gotten better at not taking it out on my friends, but this means it's aiming itself in the direction of online strangers instead. To borrow a rather trite metaphorical framework, my superego is of the opinion that I should fix this but my id figures the idiots deserve it and I need some outlet, right? And my ego is finding it easier to go with the flow than to try and change something that I don't know how to change without it reemerging in some other destructive form.

I wonder if the decrease in physical activity has anything to do with this. Not that knowing that would help a whole lot, as I still don't know how to make myself get out and fix that right now.

This is probably just going to make you more irritable but lack of physical activity can contribute to your feelings. However, there are a lot of other factors too.

Anyway, the best way to get over it is to accept that you're angry and go through the emotion, whatever it takes! Do not in any case, blame yourself for this emotion, you're human and entitled to it. I'm not advocating physical violence but if you suppress your feeling, it will get worse, believe me.
