Anger/rage has traditionally been a major way mania manifests for me. I'm sure there's a healthy dose of the effects of having grown up in a very violent home, too. I was arrested once for raging, I've broken more things than I can count. One thing I'll say is that I have never, under any conditions, lost my patience with a child or animal. That will never happen.
Medication and therapy have helped me/are helping me to learn to control my anger when it becomes unreasonable.
