Sarcasm Apparently I'm too sarcastic and sometimes people don't appreciate it. They think I don't take things seriously and I make other feel bad. But people say and do some stupid things and they deserve some sarcasm. I love sarcastic people, they're funny (I'm not saying I think I'm funny; I think others are). Anyway, I'm having a hard time cutting down on the sarcasm, possibly because I don't even realize that I am being sarcastic, it just comes out. Any help?

It's just your personality. People will either learn to appreciate it or move on. I'm naturally sarcastic as well, and some people see me as uncaring when I'm really not. Just let people know that is how you are. "Take me or leave me." ]
It's just habit. Try really hard to make a conscious effort to stop or cut down. Even if you catch yourself being sarcastic, you can correct yourself. It's okay to be sarcastic sometimes, just not when it hurts or annoys someone. You don't have to completely let go of your signature humor. ]
Being sarcastic is funny sometimes, but if you do it a lot it can get on people's nerves after a while. What I would do is try really hard to think about what you're about to say before you say anything. If that doesn't work, then whenever you say something sarcastic, apologize for saying it and say you didn't mean it. Reward yourself for when you don't use sarcasm when you would have before you thought about it. Good Luck! ]
