India, Sept. 25 -- Feeling irritable more often than usual? Florida-based therapist Jeffrey Meltzer shared ways to manage crankiness in an Instagram video on Tuesday, which has now grossed close to 70k views. Putting a cranky thought into words can help you step back from it. "I'm having the thought that everyone is annoying me today. Naming the thought can help you step backand observe what your brain is doing instead of getting pulled into an argument with everyone who happens to breathe near you," he said. Lack of sleep is a major cause of irritability even in children. "Stop doom scrolling. I know it's entertaining, but please go to bed. Giving yourself enough time to sleep can make it easier to manage your mood," Jeffrey said. Splashing cold water on your face can help you cool down and manage your mood, Jeffrey noted. Skipping meals can also fuel irritability. "If you're skipping meals and then trying to survive on a dozen doughnuts, you might want to fix that," Jeffrey said. "Being hungry can make you more irritable, and it's hard to be in a good mood when your body feels crappy. So, before you decide that you hate everyone, consider whether you've had lunch."...
