How to help impatience

Hey community!

Recently, I've been feeling very impatient with day-to-day tasks and conversations. I will rush in to clean something, for example, or have a really short fuse when talking to people close to me. It's like my tolerance has lowered all of a sudden.

Has anyone else experienced this? I searched for some posts on impatience, but they look like they were posted years ago. I'm also looking at burnout symptoms; maybe that's what is going on.

Thank you, and hope you are doing ok.

  • Accept that about 99% of other people are idiots! Seriously though, what CInnabar-Wing said, impatience does get worse when you're tired, overwhelmed and near burnout.

    But also seriously what is it about the behaviour of others that annoys you so much and makes you impatient? Is it because they're not doing things the same way you do them? Or are they deliberately trying to get out of doing things by doing them so badly they never get asked again?
