Maybe it's ok to admit irrationality when we lack the willpower to change. If you're going to be irrational, you should, at the least, admit it rather than pretend to be rational.

For next time, you can try to defend yourself from getting into a situation where you lack the willpower to be more rational. Or you can work on your willpower if you don't get a "next time."
