Dealing with Prednisone's Irritability and Hunger Side Effects

I'm just about to begin Prednisone and was informed about the fact that some side effects include being rather irritable and really hungry or thirsty. i don't want to accidentally snap at people i care about. how bad does the temperamental side effect get? any other symptoms i could get that weren't told to me?

I’m on my third week of a high dose of prednisone and haven’t noticed any huge differences yet 😊i am planning to be on it for 2 months so not sure if the symptoms start later on

I would say more so than anger you will have physical symptoms such as “moon face” your face kinda gets a bit more plump and round for a bit. I also got prednisone induce acne but they gave me special cream from a dermatologist that got rid of it.
