So, I'm in a bit of a manic bipolar-like episode these days due to coming off Paxil...and waiting for my brain to relearn how to work "right." One feeling I'm having a lot, that I haven't really felt since High School, is uncontrollable, and totally overblown rage at the slightest frustrations. I feel trapped in a world where nothing goes right, I can't handle the frustration of the continual small failures, and in my emotional rage, I end up f'ing things up even more!
In HS, I felt this way because I was trapped in a dark and abusive homelife that I could not escape. Now, I think the rage is from being "trapped" by my health issues (kidney stone, gastroenteritis) - unable to go out, get exercise, eat regularly, and do any of the things I NEED to do to get better...mentally, emotionally, and physically. Like HS, I'm blowing up at the people around me and finding solace in loud, raging music...my ears are f'ed!
Anybody have some tips on how to handle The Rage?
It's one of the scariest emotions for me...because I'm so unused to it after years of being rage-less, and it gives me uncontrollable urges to lash out verbally at others, and physically at myself.

Count to 10...take deep breaths...touch something twice before answering or reacting...did you research Paxil to see how long it may take for your brain to recover?
I didn't go through a loud raging music phase so I can't help you there. Maybe try some softer music and focus on it. Light a candle and stare at the flame
