Symptom #6: Irritability
Irritability refers to the tendency for frustration or anger. It can be a growing response to stimuli. Those who are affected are prone to anger, frustration, and are easily aggravated. It is commonly seen in high pressure or stressful situations. When one is short tempered and easily becomes frustrated, they can be considered to be irritable.
It is an emotion that can negatively affect the mood. It is also a term that parents often use to describe their children or infant child. Another expression that may be used interchangeably with the term “irritability” is “being fussy”. In children, irritability often indicates that there may be underlying discomfort.
