Feeling annoyed?
Low-level irritation from repeated friction or minor violations. Annoyance is often about accumulated small stresses, not one big problem.
The unmet need
Reduction of irritating stimuli; clear communication of boundaries; self-care before we reach our limit.
A question to sit with
What small irritation has accumulated into this annoyance? What one thing can I change to reduce the friction?
What to do right now
Address the small thing before it becomes a big thing. Speak up: "This bothers me. Can we adjust it?" Take a break if annoyance is building. Prevent accumulation.
