Lot of good advice. IME irritation is almost always a matter of too much pressure. Multiple pass shaving was something I learned on these forums. All of my 45 years of shaving before SRP I always tried to get it all in one pass. A few light passes to get the job done was what I learned here.

Matter of fact two passes with a touch up on the neck and chin is maximum for me or I still will get some irritation. Cold water shaving is my choice the past couple of years and I went from feeling I had to shave every day to allowing myself to shave every other day. So I'm shaving less and enjoying it more. Give yourself a break, take it easy and try lightning up on your passes.
