okay so is it weird for me to be really annoyed or irritated with someone for no reason? im a 16 yr old girl & today my mom is just realllly getting on my last nerve but shes not being mean or anything shes just being annoying. by annoying i mean like asking me a million and a half questions & i dont feel like talking right now & she was in the car singing and whistling & i felt like i was going to go crazy. i dont have a reason to be mad shes just bothering me today. is this just normal teen behavior? anyone else do this sometimes? & how do i tell her i dont feel like it today & just leave me alone without being rude?

Do you find that you get annoyed with her once a month,She is doing no wrong so it could be your monthly cycle affecting the way you feel.It is true usually in older women,but i have known of women that could kill just before there period then all of a sudden they are fine again.If you decide that it may be that try taking Evening Primrose Oil tablets.It is all to do with hormones your mum would actually understand if you explained it to her,she more than likely goes through the same kind of emotions.

OHHHH! This is normal, no matter the age. My dad used to get on my nerves by shaking his foot at the table. It was my problem, not his. My grandmother drove me nuts by rubbing her thumb and forefinger together when I was driving. It was my problem, not hers. I hope you can handle it better than I did. Could you perhaps say, "I'm sorry...I'm just having a bad day and want to talk to you but I just can't deal with anything right now. Could we have this conversation a little later when I'm feeling more human?" Then ask her if she has ever felt the way you do. I always thought it was hormonal but at the time it happened during my teens, I didn't realize what my problem was. I'm much less easy to irritate now that I have menopause long out of the way!!

It sounds like normal teen behavior. I hate to say it, but you may be a little bit hormonal. I find that during certain times of the month, I get extra irritable when it comes to my kids and my husband. And I tell them that: "I'm feeling extra irritable today, so can you please just lay off?" You could try something like that with your mom -- in a nice (not snotty) tone, say, "Mom, I'm feeling pretty irritable today and I'd just like to be left alone for a while. Okay"? Throw in the "okay" so she feels like she has a part in the decision-making (hopefully, she'll understand what you're trying to say and agree to leave you alone).

I get like that a lot, so I know just what you're feeling! Usually I just ignore my mom, and it gets her really mad, but I know if I spoke back, I'd just get very snappy and rude. I usually lock myself somewhere until I cool down and can be normal again. I have a bad temper, but at least I can control it. It's a bit of a battle, overcoming annoyance - but it's quite rewarding when you do - do you get that? LOL.
I don't know if I helped much - I hope I did. Take care. =)

Yes, it is normal teen behavior. I got on my daughter's nerves so bad that she finally had to get in my face about it. You are not a kid anymore, but your not grown, either, so you are essentially caught between a rock and a hard spot. I know it's a butt-pain, but listen to what she has to say, kiss her on the cheek and go away from her. You will feel better in a year or two.

Just tell her in a nice way that yo would loved to talk with her but you are not in the talking mood. I am sure she will understand. I am pregnat and I get annoyed for no reason at people a lot. I just feel like punching them in the back of their head sometimes. hehe

It's called hormones hon. And it's not only teenagers who get that way. I'm sure your mom probably gets a little irritated for no good reason once in a while too.
I know I do. Sometimes you just need to tell your family that you are feeling irritable and could they please leave you alone. I warn my family when I get moody just so they know. *grin*

I know what you mean. I'm 16 also and have this problem a lot. My parents can be so annoying. Like even when they talk, it annoys me. Just tell her you don't feel like talking at the moment. although that's easier said than done.

See its a common problem when you are in your teenage. Teenagers generraly tend to dislike of get annoyed easily by their parents.
If you can't control it anymore you can politely tell your mom that you need some rest and that you have a severe headache.Then just go take a shower and then a nap if possible,.
May be you might get back fresh then.
