Many people who are depressed and anxious or irritable. They often make responses that then they later feel they wish they had not. Therapist can help you learn to find other ways to express your self. Being on the right medication can help with the depression and anxiety
In some cases, depression can be described as anger turned inward. So, yes, depression can include feelings of anger. Especially since you also have anxiety. Iā€™d recommend you see a psychologist with cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) training to help you with all three of these negative mood states. CBT is a brief, safe, and very effective treatment for these symptoms.
Depression can make you more irritable or angry.
