Emotions — Annoyed?
Annoyed? Irritated? or Maybe Frustrated? Identify your Emotions and the feelings associated to them
Annoyed: the feeling that makes you want to pull your hair out, or maybe just your neighbor’s hair. It’s that little voice in your head that says ‘just one more thing and I’m going to lose it.’ It’s the reason why you might find yourself muttering under your breath, or maybe even letting out a little growl. It’s the feeling that makes you want to throw your phone across the room when it rings one too many times, or maybe just give someone a good old fashioned side-eye. But don’t worry, we’ve all been there, and sometimes it’s just what we need to let off a little steam and remind us that we’re still human.
