Do you take it out on people if you are having a bad day?

Or do you try to avoid people in general until you are feeling better? Sorry to say I am sure I have done both, what about you?

No. It isn't their fault. I try to keep my distance if I'm being a grouch.

I know that I have done both! I try to avoid people until I cool down or pass the mood, just for damage control. I know what I am capable of when I am not happy. I try to be mindful of other when I am down, but it doesn't always work out :)

I am sad to report that I do on occasion do both. I let them know I am having a bad day and not feeling well and don't want to be bothered and if they still do I sometimes get angered because I respect when they aren't feeling well and in a bad mood and I leave them alone I just want the same courtesy. I get alot of migraines and they are he'll when being bothered. So I tend to stay away from people but they keep finding me like I have a tracking device implanted in my hinnie..lolEver feel that way. No matter what you do or where you go they find you?

I think I have probably also done both before. I think I do sort of avoid people until I'm feeling better because I usually just don't feel like being around a lot of other people if I'm having a really bad day. I usually just prefer to be alone. I think I do accidentally take it out on my husband though sometimes. I always feel really awful afterward. I really try not to do that, but I'm sure it does happen on occasion accidentally.

It depends on how bad a day I'm having, and what pissed me off in the first place. If I get pissed at a stranger, I take it out on the cashier or some other stranger. If I get pissed at my husband, he catches it all plus more! If I get ticked off b/c of something my son has done, I just get mad and stay that way. I can't and won't take it out on him, so I just get snarky and peevish all day, and mostly just avoid people when that happens. It just depends. I've done both, for different reasons at the time.

it is very hard not to take it on other people,but I try my best to avoid it happen. when I have a bad day I try to do something alone and read some book or see some beautiful view. It is not polite to loseyou temple on others.

I am sure that I have done both as well. I generally try to avoid people though. I can be quite a b!tch when I am having a bad day. Are you having a bad day or just asking out of curiosity?

Sometimes I took out on people when I had a bad day, but now I try to avoid people or to hide my bad mood away from them.

I agree with you ,when i feel a little unwell ,I always make myself alone until I fell better .and then i will get along with some people and my friends to make fun and enjoying ourselves.

I usually try to avoid others when I'm having a bad day because it hurts me when I hurt someone else's feelings. It makes me feel worse and makes the bad day worse. I do know some people tho who feel perfectly comfortable yelling at anyone in sight when they're having a bad day and never feel any guilt whatsoever about it.
