Of course we knew this anecdotally, but it's nice to have confirmation from research. Lack of sleep makes you cranky.

As father of baby, can confirm.

I was about to say the same thing. Father of 3. The eldest is 4 years and the youngest is 9 months. I find myself biting my tongue and closing my eyes, counting and doing breathing exercises many times.

This article intensifies my anger and makes it difficult for me to adapt to the circumstance I now find myself in!

Is that really news though? I feel like I've known that since I was a kid lol

See my note - we do know this anecdotally, but it's also nice to confirm things with research.

Crappy.

Does it work the other way too? Frustration drags it out of you and you get tired?

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 years ago

While I do not have research on hand to back this up, I would guess that getting angry does lead to being tired. It produces adrenaline and cortisol, so when it's over, you will crash. Please someone correct me if there is actual research on this.
