I just went to fill up the dog's dish with water and I felt like picking it up and belting it through the window. This has happened
a few times during the past month but nothing has really triggered it. It just comes out of the blue . Should I be concerned?

I have anger like that too
No trigger... comes out out of nowhere.
And afterwards you feel guilty, because
it's like "well what the hell was that?"

I dont have any advice just wanted to let you know that you arent the only one that this happens to, it happens to me all the time! Its annoying! I hope you figure it out soon

(((((Babysteps))))) Are you seeing a therapist or doctor? If you are I would take this post in and show them what you have written. I myself would be concerned because of the fact you had no trigger and the job of fill a water dish should not make anyone angry. Take care and good luck my friend. Hugs for your day

Glad to hear that, good luck and let us know how it turns out.

Just wanted to say I've had a similar thing happen before... guess for me I repressed so much anger from my past I didn't know it was there, then when I did... I didn't know how to handle it. Hope T helps

I get angry sometimes for no reason. I actually used to have a bad anger problem. I'm still a work in progress, but I found a cure for myself: when I wake up in the morning the first thing I tell myself is that I'm going to love everyone. If I don't love everyone, the people I don't love own me. I think about them negatively and their negativity owns me. They waste all my energy. So I love everyone and no matter how difficult situations become throughout the day, I can handle them because I choose to love everyone. Good luck, and all is well. You'll be okay.

BPD maybe?

[Naturefreak]

She wasn't really sure what was causing the anger . Could be just frustration.
She also told me she is leaving but will refer me to the only other P-doc in town
for medications. Life goes on .

[googley]

I'm sorry t/Pdoc is leaving. That sucks. I know that in the past when I have gotten angry out of the blue it is usually that something else had made me angry and at the time it happened I didn't know it. It then popped up in other places with me being angry and I had to try and figure out what might have happened, who knows how long ago, that made me mad. Now I am much better as I often know when I am angry at the time so it can be addressed. It has been a long process going from being angry literally weeks after an event to knowing I'm angry when something happens. I'm still working on what to do at the point in time when I get angry and there are times when I still don't know right away. Could there have been something in the past recent or more long term that made you angry but you were not able to express it? Good luck.

we are NOT alone! i get crazy mad! soo mad i wanna break my phone or hit someone or hurt myself.... ughhh!!! its soooo irritating!!

I hope you meant the dish and not the dog.

I have had explosive anger issues my whole life. As a boy of about 12-13, I used to throw things against the wall. Like books and my eyeglasses (not to smart there,as my parents made me wear the broken glasses to school). It always seemed to come out of nowhere.

Then there was a period of illegal drug use which mellowed me out to the point where I couldn't pick up a book. Now, I'm on legal meds which help, but as a much older man of 54 I still feel the stress build up and occasionally I explode. I've thrown a drinking glass at a door and put a pretty good hole in it and have yelled at my mom horribly a few times this past year.

My T just says this is "explosive anger" and is associated with my BPD.

She told me to talk to my m.d. about getting a little more xanax and that we should work on this issue more in the future.

It appears to me that it's a physiological reactioin to stress or some kind of specific trigger which is what T wants to work on.
