Hello RxQueen875: I don't know if I am Bipolar. One pdoc I saw suggested this may be the case. But I do know anger & temper control have always been big issues for me. I can "pop-off" at the least little perceived slight. The good news if there is any, is, as I've aged, I seem to be mellowing out a wee bit. The bad news is, when I say "aged", I mean it. It's taken until I was into my middle 60's to get there. Hopefully you will find your way to your calm center before that.
