I’m glad it’s not just me… I just get a feeling that a lot of us are “on edge” and I tend to be irritating sometimes.

I sometimes “reek” of optimism which can be upsetting when others are in a bad mood.

The bad thing (speaking from personal experience) is to feel guilty for being OK when other people have a bad time. I felt pretty bad when the worst of depression left me, but other people were still badly affected. Don't let this get to you; it's not rational.
Hopefully you don't think you've upset everyone? I have not seen any too ruffled feathers.
