That the sicker you get, the more easily annoy or upset you get? 
Posted 9/14/2009 11:52 AM (GMT -7)
Oh yeah!! When I am feeling bad, I get really irritated very easily. Its not a trait I am happy with having, because normally I am a pretty easy going person.

I am really feeling it today, and I just gritting my teeth waiting for 1600.

Whats going on at that time to get you so irritable? You know I was going to say also, since I have been diagnosed one trait I absolutely hate about myself, especially when sick, is I have zero patience of any kind. I am like a fussy tazmanian devil, just pissy as heck.

To a certain point...but once it gets really bad I just kind of give up and go with the flow haha. Just kind of 'whatever.' attitude.

I think on bad days just coping is all consuming, any bovine waste on top of a bad day with Crohn's is enough to make even the most positive of people feel a little defeated.
Here's hoping tomorrow is better for you navy.

Yes, yes, yes. I can't stand myself lately. I am trying to think more positive and be more grateful. There are way too many good things in my life to be upset and ill tempered. I am trying to walk it out too. Yes that helps.

I remember when I was a kid, my dad (who also has crohn's) was grumpy A LOT. I always felt like I had to walk around on eggshells. He still has a very short fuse. It takes very little to irritate him. Thankfully, I at least didn't inherit that! However, I do at times feel easily irritated, and it's generally because some part of my body isn't working right.

That is exactly it, anywhere I have metal in my body is very swollen and hot, which means we have a storm coming in.

OH yeah when I get mad I just cry at the drop of a hat. And when the pain is bad, I change into this mean person with no patience. Its hard for other people to understand. I like it better when I just cry and dont say anything so no one's feelings get hurt. We always hurt the people we love the most.

Definitely. I get nearly bipolar when I'm feeling crappy.
Posted 9/14/2009 8:12 PM (GMT -7)
Absolutely, that's probably why I don't get on here as much like I used to, and I don't know why because I miss you all LOL x
Posted 9/14/2009 8:20 PM (GMT -7)
Definitely, and sometimes it feels like just the smallest thing...that doesn't really bother you...gets on your nerves. Or is that just me? lol Sigh...just gotta keep on dancing as I like to say:)

When Im in a painful flare I have NO patience and go very quiet, because if I speak it wont be nice :)

Depends - if its brain fog and fatigue, I just crawl into a hole. I don't want to be bothered for anything (probably a guy thing). Decisions get really hard. "Do you want tea with lunch?" takes a while to sort out. Lucky that this only happens once in a while.

I totally am this way too and my new BF has degenerative arthritis in his back with spurs from back when he was in the navy and got injured. He gets the same way ...both of us not feeling great on the same day ...bound for quiet time or aggitation

all the time! i am quick to lose my temper
Posted 9/15/2009 9:41 AM (GMT -7)
That is so true!

Before I knew I had Crohn's, I had always been very straight forward and bold in my thinking. But now I am at the point where I am angry all the time and the most trival things set me off. In the past I could calm myself down but now I just want to shot or sleep (hence the name!).

When I first got diagnosed I was more optimistic about the whole thing but as I have got worse I have become so bitter and that fact I have become so bitter is making me even more bitter!

I feel like I can't win lol
