the best thing to do when you are "too tired" to bother doing the basic chores you should do is stay up doing nothing and not go to sleep, making a situation of very few hours of sleep

I like your thinking.

Life would be lovely if I could selectively suppress my emotions when they are being irrational.

I read somewhere they're actually crucial to decision-making. There was a case of someone with damage to the amygdala being completely paralyzed when it came to simple decisions.Emotions are irrational by definition.
Probably the former, since I keep insisting to myself a perceived slight was just a coincidence. Doesn't seem to actually soothe the anger I'm feeling.But are your emotions really being irrational or are they telling you what you need to hear?

Crucial to decision making has nothing to do with rationality, any more than teeth chewing the food that provides nutrients to your brain means that your teeth do your thinking.
Sounds to me like your emotion generators are working fine. You perceived a slight. Anger is the appropriate response. If your perception mechanism is faulty, fix it. Suppressing appropriate anger just breeds more anger.

What the hell drives someone to do such a thing? Not kill oneself, but to take 149 lives with one's own.
