What is Irritability?
Irritability refers to a heightened emotional response, where an individual may feel easily annoyed, frustrated, or angered by minor triggers. It is often linked to stress, anxiety, and mental health conditions or can arise during withdrawal from substances. For individuals in addiction recovery, irritability may present as a symptom of emotional adjustment.
Therapies, mindfulness practices, and stress-reducing techniques can help individuals manage irritability, improving daily functioning and emotional stability.
