Ever get this when you forget why you are [annoyed/depressed]

[Lobsang]

When you have a thought process going.. and you remember something which makes you depressed or annoyed, and then you get distracted and forget what it was that got you annoyed/depressed... but you remain annoyed/depressed... and it's now worse because you're annoyed/depressed but don't know why you're annoyed/depressed, so you can't rationalize your way out of the state of mind.

I know exactly what you're talking about.

Usually it becomes this minor emergency. ''Oh, no! Something bad exists in my reality and I forgot what it is and if I don't figure it out soon we're all going to die!''

Yep, but it's not a crisis for me so much as I just get pissy.

I am boycotting Nike, but I've forgotten why. But I know that at one time I had a really good reason--that company really annoyed me. I just don't remember what it did to annoy me.

No, I may forget something I was worried about. And be mildly concerned until I can reconstruct what it was.

But the idea of having to work to find a reason to explain why I'm annoyed/depressed just doesn't compute. It's like asking, why did I remember to take my last breath.

Their use of sweatshops?

This happens a lot to me, too--just before I fall asleep I get a surge of horrible but vague existential dread, and I have absolutely no idea why.
