"Irritable! That is how I often feel!" And on checking with my wife, she concluded. Peculiar as it'd seem we both realised something was not right, separately, on the same day, after 18 months of struggle.
Such was the realization the consuming outrage that would rise up without any warning was really a sign that I was reaching my end - I was depressed. What a revelation that was; to grasp there was a way out, but that that way out meant admitting my weakness. And then an irony appeared; the moment I confessed my need for help, in that moment - that very moment - hope drew near.
Irritation is a tell tale sign of depression, particularly in males.
Something would go 'wrong ' and I would flip into a rage, regardless of if I was alone or no-one else noticed; within me I was beside myself with fury. And at the very same time part of me was asking, in a desperate state of perplexity, "What's going on here, Steve?!"
Such fits of outrage were tiring, and though fortunately there was usually no observable harm made, there had been much non secular torment that needed to be reconciled. I was beyond control and failed to understand how to restore that control.
But the word bad temper - or irritable - got me wondering. It hit me in a moment of openness of heart and mind. God used that word to reveal his truth. My irritation with the sign I was depressed. I had fought the best I could, in my very own strength, for 18 months. Now was the time to really admit my weakness and seek help.
WHY ANGER Is Sometimes THE SIGN OF DEPRESSION
Why would we get immoderately indignant otherwise, unless our inner world was in flux?
Occasionally anger is all we have left to rail against a world we will neither understand nor work with. That world, for who knows what reason or reasons, has given us cause to feel confounded in some shape. All we have left is outrage. And self-righteousness is the driver, because justice has not been served - in the opinion of the depressed attitude.
Hate reveals unhappiness for the problems of disregard in our lives we haven't any control over. And it does not take much to feel out of control.
When we admit our sadness nonetheless , as we have realised the task anger is playing, the path to recovery opens up - in spite of the despair inside our circumstance. When there is a requirement, get professional help to assist you, before it affects your life and make you ned up in debt for cultivating unacceptable habits!

Uncharacteristic irritation can be a sign of the unhappiness of depression. Sometimes all we have left is annoyance; but upon realizing our requirement for help, to confess that, opens a path to recovery. If we are honest about fury we could very well see the sadness beneath. Such unhappiness is an invite to be explored, to be certified, and to be wrestled with. As soon as we do these things the door to pray swings ajar and then completely open.
