Work stress is bleeding into home life

Been dealing with a difficult project and I've been short with the kids over nothing. My 8 year old asked me to play and I snapped at him. I hate that work is making me a worse dad. Started leaving work at the office more intentionally, turning off email after 6pm, trying to be more present. It's hard to switch gears but worth it. Anyone else struggle with this?

That guilt is real but you're already aware of it which means you'll fix it. Maybe take 20 minutes when you get home to just reset before the kids need you? My coffee ritual helps me decompress before I'm fully in dad mode.
