I am wondering if others deal with the same issues.

You just described who I am. I've learned to tolerate people in the workplace by faking it like I'm a happy nice person. My best friend and I do this so we make it through difficult situations and not flip out.
As for the family part well there's still fights and always will be. I'm not mean I just know I'm right and the argument just escalates from there.
Theres multiple things that contributes to my low tolerance towards people. After work I'm drained from keeping it together from spending my time fixing issues and training people to do their job. It exhausting revisiting the same issue again and again. I hate wasting my time and I enjoy living in an efficient environment with other productive people. So when I'm not at work my tolerance is very low and I dont have time or energy to deal with more BS.
Meds only helps and it requires a lot of work on my end. I can't tell much of a difference between being on meds vs being off meds.
You're not alone
