I am really struggling with my temper lately. I haven't had this problem in a while, but lately my fuse and patience level are just in the negative range. Most times when a student walks into my clinic, I'm just annoyed. I have to bite my tongue when they tell me they "don't feel good" I want to respond with, " I'm sorry, my give a damn is broken" but I don't but by the end of the day, I'm wiped out. I had a driver tailgating me yesterday on the way home and I ended up pulling out to pass other vehicles as there was oncoming traffic, I didn't even care. I pulled back in while she gestured at me not to do it. I don't like that i'm so angry lately. This isn't me. I don't want to be this person. I'm afraid. I seem to go from apathetic to resentful to witch mode in a matter of minutes. The pain is too much to bear. I still can't get my meds and I'm afraid of where this road leads.

You may be interested in giving a combination of 2 supplements a try - TMG plus L-methionine. Here's a link to some people's experiences - I'm not promoting the brand or anything, just sharing reviewers' comments:
iHerb.com - Customer Reviews -Jarrow Formulas, TMG, Trimethylglycine, 500 mg, 120 Tablets

I hope today goes better for you!

Sorry you're suffering so much at the moment. I can relate a lot to what you say, especially the anger bit.

sometimes people hit their limit. you're maxed out. there's only so much a person can take. what happened that made you feel at your max?

I just get to a point by the end of my week where i have given all I can give. It is so hard to maintain a positive facade when I feel so empty inside. I am doing better right now and trying hard to remember to take care of self.
