Angry at little things that don't matter!

I feel like every little thing that my toddler does or even my husband do, I feel like I just can't ignore it, it seems like I am constantly yelling or getting pissed at them, and sometimes it the stupidest thing too. I want to know how to deal with it and not getting so upset over nothing.

I feel the same way. Ive started couseling to help deal with some of my anger. But in my case I have bi polar and manic depression. With the bio polar my moods are more set on anger more than I would like. The doctor also told me to take a time out when I start felling the urge to get angry. does your husband help u with your baby? So time to yourself is important just 5 minutes will make a great difference. Also after baby goes to bed try to take a hot bath or do something that relaxes u. Or if you are getting frustrated take baby outside for a walk to get some fresh air. I hope these things can help because they help me.

I also tend to get worked up over really small things sometimes. It seems to happen in stages; for a while nothing seems to bother me and I love being with my son, and can appreciate his sense of adventure and imagination. Then I'll go through a couple of weeks where I'm annoyed at everyone and everything, and I can't seem to shake it. I find myself losing patience and being sharp instead of enjoying playtime.

I find it a little easier if I remind myself that before I know it he'll be older and won't want to play pretend and spend so much time with me, and how much I'll miss it when this happens. One friend told me that every chance she gets to spend with her kids is bonus time, so we should enjoy it while we can.

I am a fan of Kidd Kradick in the Morning.  He does a yearly trip to Disney World with terminally and chronically ill children.  I listened to his show with those precious children and it seemed all my anxiety about messes.. went out the window.  We have healthy kids, thank God.
