Sunrise,

When I first read your post, I was going to say that when I first started suffering from anxiety attacks I was also very angry all the time, but now, 16 odd years later that is not the case. I thought since I wasn't walking around pissed off at the world, that part of me at least was fixed.

Now that I've read your examples, I realized that I am exactly the same way. When an anxiety attack is coming on I start getting cranky, the bigger the attack the more livid I become.

Certain things that trigger the attacks, will also, even now, while I am safe in my own home, really really make me angry. As I read your post I'm saying "yes, yes, I know exactly what your saying!"

These incidents are things that would make anyone angry, but do they stay awake all night because it happened to pop in their head as they're falling asleep and get angry all over again?

I think you're on to something here. I am trying really hard to think of a time when I had an anxiety attack that did not result in a rage or when something that made me really angry did not result in an anxiety attack. I cannot think of a single time in 16 years when I had one without the other.
