Many days I just can't shake this feeling of anger. Some days it's like a rage just simmering under the skin, but almost always it's at the high anger level.

Nothing to be angry about. Everything going fine. Just feeling anger. I think others perceive it to be arrogance or a bad attitude toward them. It's not. Even when I'm around people I like a lot, I feel this simmering along.

The feeling is still there when I'm alone. It's like I need to strike out at something just to relieve the tension. Over the years I've learned to control this and no longer show anger about anything. Silence is the most observable sign remaining. The more angry, the more silent ... but it comes to the point where I hardly speak in a group anymore because so much of what is going on rubs against that anger.

And don't think the anger is gone if you see me smiling or laughing ... facade.

Please don't suggest anger management classes ... if those ppl could manage their anger half as much as I do, they wouldn't be there. No one is in danger. I don't break things. There's no road rage. I buried all of that long ago.

I almost hide it so well that I forget about it myself, but just the slightest tension and I know it's still there.

Is this all part of ptsd or am i whacko?
