I'm glad you found a way to defeat the C.A.S. (crabby @ss syndrome)! Lol. I get this way sometimes when I'm in a creative slump but it's more often surfaces as mild despair or feeling like I'm stagnant instead of crabbiness. The Daily Stoic email from Ryan Holiday has really lit a fire underneath me recently. I had this idea a few months ago that I was going to "ease into retirement" but I found out quickly after that I'm not made that way.

If it's a creative slump and hormones aren't a factor, then my feelings mirror yours...butttt haha, that added monthly bonus can manifest in weeping for no apparent reason or just a general irritation at everything, especially myself 😆 Irritate and annoy are two of the most spot on words in American English, I don't even like using them let alone feeling them lol!
I will definitely check out the Daily Stoic, thanks for the recommendation!
Oh, I see. I don't fully understand how that would feel but it probably exacerbates the misery of it tenfold! You're welcome for the recommendation. It's really helped to guide me through this next phase of life. I hope you're feeling better!
