Hi everyone,

I find myself being easily irritated by little things. The main little things are: the sound of people's voices and the sounds of chewing food. It can be anybody, really, but it's usually family members. I can be fine one minute, but the next be utterly furious at them as words come out of their mouth. Same goes with loud chewing noises. Disgusting! Infuriating!

These seem like small things. But they just cause me to feel overwhelming anger, annoyance, rage boils inside me...I either have to leave and go be by myself, or dissociate on purpose. I hate how I seem like such a mean person...I don't want to be a mean person...but I can't control how I feel.

I have informed by father and brother in the past about this issue. They are fine with it, but I can't tell them all the time: "Could you please stop talking? Your voice is infuriating me." It's just not polite.

Does anybody have any tips to conquer my stupid anger issues?
