Why am I so fucking angry today?

I'm sitting here pissed off. I don't know why. I can feel myself scowling at the world. I'm short with people for no reason. My wife will say something and it'll piss me off. I'm not angry at her, or at her actions. I'm just angry. I even tried relaxing my face, to get rid of the angry look, and it helped for a few minutes, but I can feel the scowl coming back.

One reason might be because I started back on Androgel this past week. I did cut back from the prescribed 2 packets to one. I spoke with the doctor about it, and he agreed it might be a good idea to do so. Maybe the extra testosterone is just making me more agressive and easier to piss off.

I think I'll go on a bike ride. Maybe exerting myself will help burn off whatever it is that's causing me to be angry.

Comments:
So I missed it somewhere, why are you on testosterone augmentation? That'll definitely make you aggressive, but I don't know how that ties into angry.

I hope you're feeling better today.
 
I take Androgel because my testosterone levels were way below the low end of normal. The standard range is between 250 and 1,200 nanograms (ng) per deciliter (dl). The last time I had it checked when not on Androgel it was around 150-175 ng/dl.

Without getting into the gory details, I'd noticed that my drive was much lower than normal, to the point of being non-existant. The Androgel is helping, I just need to get into the habit of using it. Hopefully the dosage I'm on now will be effective.
 
I have high testosterone -- for a woman -- and it´s a pain in the neck to deal with. Before I read in your second paragraph abou the Androgel, I was thinking "sounds like testosterone to me." That´s pretty much how I feel when I get an overload, I guess. It fluctuates for me, since I am still a woman, and ruled by the moon *grin*.
