We go out of ourselves for coffee and lack of air
And why do we always quarrel over trifles ... Perhaps something in the atmosphere soars.
Most unexpected causes irritability [test]
Rips on trifles, growl and rush to close? It turns out that the basis of this behavior may not only be harmful nature, but also the most unexpected things - from contraceptives to smoked sausage ...
Character or illness?
There are people for whom irritability - an innate property of the person. But they are few - no more than one percent of the population.
In other cases, it is a sign of some health problems.
The reason may be:
chronic pain or discomfort (in diseases of the joints, kidneys, exacerbation of chronic cystitis, prostatitis, inflammation of the ovaries);
exhaustion of the nervous system with fatigue, depression, epilepsy; posttraumatic reactions (ie protracted experience after some heavy events);
30% of the blame for the "syndrome of the inner burnout." With him on the background of stress, a sense of "assembly line" of life weaken psychological defense mechanisms, and the person gradually loses control of his emotions.
It makes a person irritable patient thyroid. Specialists in psychosomatic point out that the lack of her hormones - hypothyroidism - is a tearful weakness and excess - hyperthyroidism - irritability, aggressive notes.

Heart problems, asthma often cause anxiety, fears, general anxiety. So do not be surprised if the psychologist, after listening to your family problems and wishes of relatives to buy you a muzzle, will direct you to be examined by a cardiologist or endocrinologist.
When analginum becomes "ozverin"
Remember, in a cartoon about Leopold good kotyara, swallowing "ozverina" suddenly lost tolerance to mice?
Well, and "the truth" some drugs can produce side effects in the form of irritability.
These include:
heart - nitroglycerin, verapamil, isosorbide and derivatives thereof; hormones - corticosteroids (prednisone, hydrocortisone) and estrogens, which are part of contraceptive drugs and hormone replacement therapy during menopause;
pressure - captopril (Capoten), metoprolol, nifedipine;

To cope with increased irritability, need a comprehensive approach:
a change of scenery or activity;

With frequent use of analgesics inhibit the body's production of "happiness hormones" - endorphins and enkephalins, - because of what man becomes more difficult to contain negative emotions.
I do not own after coffee and sausage ...
Powerful stimuli can become the most familiar products. One such - coffee. The alkaloid caffeine stimulates the nervous system. And if we decide in the fevered state of "calm down" some coffee, you can get the opposite effect.
Irritability often provokes a food additive - sodium glutamate. It is added to enhance flavor in bouillon cubes, soups and condiments. Some people are prone to food allergies, become irritable ... of sausage.
Sausages, smoked meats contain nitrite, which gives them a nice pink color (after all, simply cooked meat unattractive shade of gray). Nitrite in sensitive people can cause headaches and dysphoria (irritable, moody mood).
Team: the air!
At the office all the flies upside down? Maybe you just do not have enough oxygen.
Noticed this: come to work in good spirits, the day is normal, with no one to quarrel, and after a few hours you as a substitute - the mood is spoiled, I want to someone to snap, and colleagues around do not seem so nice. And the cause is not your bad temper, and "banal" hypoxia, that is the lack of oxygen in the air with an excess of carbon dioxide.
Office syndrome. By the way, the higher are your apartment and office, the less oxygen in the air. It is believed that hypoxic manifestations constantly observed those who live and work above the sixth floor of the standard.
