I hate the world and everyone in it
DEAR DEIDRE: Every day I wake up with a strong hatred for the world and everyone who lives in it.
I’m constantly surrounded by rude and horrible people and it’s driving me mad.
I’m a 28-year-old man and for most of my life, I’ve constantly been let down by the people I’ve cared about.
Whether it’s been friends, family, or in my relationships, everyone always disappointed me and it’s left me feeling resentful and angry.
I’ve spent so much time wondering how people can be so selfish and I’m yet to make any sense of it.
Even in my daily life I constantly see the ways humans hurt one another. Whether it’s being rude to service workers, stealing from people in need, or vandalising property, I’m consistently reminded of the lack of care everyone has for each other.
I feel so frustrated and wound up and most days I’m angry from the moment I wake up until I go to sleep at night.
I’m worried I’ll lose my temper and do something I’ll regret.

DEIDRE SAYS: As hard as it may be, you cannot control what other people say or do, only your reaction to it.
The truth is that many people are facing invisible battles, and this often causes them to act in ways they otherwise wouldn’t.
Instead of being angry, try to be more open-minded and consider other people’s perspectives or situations.
I’m sending you my support pack Managing Anger to help you find healthy ways to work through your negative emotions.
