When you are in bad mood do you affect people around you?

Somehow and someways yes. I used to be jolly, talkative and happy all the time so when I am not in the mood or in bad mood I used to be quiet and try to control and surpass the bad vibes.People will be affected cause there is no talkative and jolly around them.

When the mood is out, it is always best to keep silence.Engaging in heated arguments in those times of mood shifts would add insult to injury only. Better to wait the out of mood situation calm all by itself...until then silence would the best option.

I agree with you. When I'm in a bad mood it generally will affect other people around me too however I try to think of happy moments to cure my mood.

Well i think that maybe that the person should try to look at things in a different manner and try to just work on the attitude of making things light to avoid getting carried away by present problems.

It is very difficult, I can not take control and do not pull in your bad humor .Always try to, but somehow I do not wychodzi. I'm sorry, me with my others worried and grieving.

I keep my distance and bite my tongue instead of saying something I might regret later. All part of growing up...you have to control your temper or deal with the long-term consequences. I make an effort to sleep well and eat well to avoid bad mood days.

Yeah, this is the main reason why I don't talk to anyone when I'm in a bad mood. I just keep to myself. As much as possible, I would sleep so that I wouldn't have to deal with anyone thus maintaining the 'bad mood' to myself and no one else. I'm just glad that I know how to keep things to myself so that I wouldn't have to spread the negativity around. Perhaps your co-worker needs to stop spreading the negativity. She should learn to keep things to herself. Ask you employer if the company could have an anger management seminar or proper work ethics seminar on behavior and attitude. Have a great myLot experience ahead!

When i am having a bad mood, woke up at the wrong side of the bed.. i try my best not to affect the people around me especially at the office as i know it will affect my work performance and i will be the one who will suffer it in the place. SO i try to just swallow it all up and act as if i have no problems at all.

The same experience happened to everyone, but we should avoid by not going out these days.

When I am in a bad mood, I always try to control it and I keep my mouth to utter hurtful things..but sometimes, I can't control it and when it happened I just don't speak and my office mates could easily sense that I am in a bad mood. Usually no one dares to talk to me

I try to be all smiley, but I just can't control my face... but I'm not behaving in like a grumpy, "everyone should have a bad mood" way. So, ina regular way, I might do, because when I see someone unhappy, that usually affects me, even though they don't want to... but on purpose, no.

Yes rhod, my mood happens to affect my surrounding people. But when I be in a bad mood, I try my best not to let my mood affect them. Because its my own concern and are never supposed to act like that ill way.

Yes it definitely affect people around us, but usually when I'm in a bad mood, I isolate myself from them because I don't want my bad mood to ignite another bad mood. To feel better it's either I play with children or listen to music.

I used to be like that. I would take out my anger on other people. When I was in a bad mood, I could not be talked to properly. But I learned to manage that because I end up hurting a lot of people. And besides, I think that it would be something that I wouldn't want to be done to me. I don't think it's fair that when someone is angry, they are also angry towards other people. Especially if that other people includes me, and most especially if I didn't do anything to cause that person to get angry. Someone should talk to your co-worker when she has cooled off that it's not fair to other people because she also wouldn't like it if it happened to her.

Hi! When am in a bad mood, I try to control myself. I try not to make others irritated because am not in a good mood, I tell myself that if something bad has happened with me (due to reasons beyond their control) why should they be punished? I try to remain cool and calm or take a walk for few minutes before I return to my desk, in case am feeling bad.

If I have a bad mood, I try not to affect other people who is irrelevant to it. However, sometimes I will keep silent when I don't have the mood. Perhaps this is already a kind of effect on others. I love China

hi yesI worked under a manager in the library who was bi polar and refused to take her medications to level out her mood swings one day she wou d be as mean as a bear with a thorn in its paw and we were all the worst crew she ever had.so everyone became grouchy 'but the next day she was happy happy happy and so we all were in a good mood.She made you feel so uncomfortable when she was down like hat and we all stayed away from her.She refused to believe she was bi polar but she was diagnosed wwith it.

like or dislike, our bad mood can affect another people... except we stay in quiet room or go to the beach alone and scream maybe..

When I am in a bad mood I try my hardest to stay away from others as much as possible because I like to uplift people not bring them down. If I feel that I will bring someone down I just stay to myself. I don't want to be that kind of person. I really don't get in a bad mood often though either. I sometimes am too emotional so I will cry a little bit. I cry more than get mad most definitely.

Yes, I have noticed that it does affect people around me when I am in a bad mood. I do not like to be around others that are either. It does rub off.
