Why Do I Feel Triggered by Certain Actio

I feel like some people (strangers or family members) do certain actions intentionally because they know those actions easily trigger me, and they mentally disturb me from within. However, I don’t feel this way about my parents, because I fully trust that they wouldn’t do anything deliberately to trigger me. In my case, some common examples are: someone honking loudly while passing near me, or someone making loud noises with utensils right when I enter a room. I start thinking that as soon as I arrived, why did that person do this action? Why don’t they do it when I’m not around? Whenever someone performs such actions in front of me, I feel anxiety and a lot of anger. Then I end up doing the same action myself, which gives me a sense of satisfaction. And I also feel that if someone has done something to disturb me, I will always respond with a similar action, no matter what. I feel like I've delusion of reference.

Delayed  my Work and Delayed My Future

Hello Doctor, I am a 25-year-old male currently preparing for job interviews while also working in a shift from 12:00 PM to 9:30 PM. I am also dealing with financial stress and family responsibilities. For the past few weeks, I have been facing difficulty with both focus and sleep. I find it hard to concentrate for long periods, get distracted easily, and often feel mentally fatigued. My sleep is also inconsistent — sometimes I take a long time to fall asleep, and other times I wake up feeling unrefreshed. Because of my work shift, my routine is slightly irregular, and I am not sure if that is contributing to the problem. I wanted to understand: 1. Whether this could be due to stress, anxiety, or my work schedule 2. If I should get any tests done 3. Whether medication is required or if lifestyle changes would be enough 4. How I can improve both focus and sleep naturally with my current schedule I do not have any known major medical conditions. Thank you.
