I have punched refrigerators and gone after people with garden implements. I have slammed TV dinners against walls and broken glassware. The only reason I don't do these things anymore is medication.....it dulls the rage and gives me time to think before I act. I don't feel I'm an angry person anymore, although I can be pretty irritable when I'm heading into a manic episode. Otherwise I'm pretty much in control of the anger rather than it controlling me.
