Need to understand why

Treevey134777

hi,

so I’m just looking to try and understand something. I’ve noticed within the last year or so that I have moments, can be any time, but usually around this time (8pm-2am), that I get a rush of anger or irritability and end up going from watching Tv one moment, to being in the kitchen or any other room in the house cleaning or doing something else. But I can never remember the time from sitting in a chair to getting to the other room or how I started cleaning or doing something else, it’s like a blank spot  

Now I don’t have OCD in the sense of cleaning because I’m really messy and untidy most of the time. It takes me all of my time to consider doing cleaning or tidying due to mental health problems and lack of motivation to do things. I’m wondering if it’s something to ADHD (which I’m currently going through the diagnosis stage of) or if it’s something I need to be more concerned about. 

it’s happened before but it sometimes isn’t cleaning, sometimes it’s ending up walking the streets with my dog at stupid times, or baking something at a stupid time. 

anybody know what this is and why? 

thanks in advance and sorry for the long explanation/reason behind my question.

    Hi. Thanks for your reply. It’s not always with the Tv. Sometimes it is. But this time was with the Tv on. Sometimes it can be me going from sleeping to flying around my bedroom either cleaning or throwing things. I don’t mean to. 

    I was getting a packet of crisps out the cupboard just now when a chocolate covered mallow fell out and without even thinking, launched it across the room. What I’m trying to say is, I have like an involuntary reaction to certain things and I don’t know why. Things like that always happen. Not always anger, or frustration, sometimes it just happens.
