Hi 2Quilt,

I think the answer is the answer that we happen to give to lots of other members - therapy. I have rage issues, too. I'm an angry person but hide my anger beneath sarcasm most of the time so I don't necessarily come off as "crazy". But, when the timing is right - I blow my stack, I rage sometimes blindly.

The anti-depressants seem to be working better for me more and more, I think - or it could also be that I'm working hard in therapy every week. Sometimes, it's hard to pin-point that "one" thing that is working to cure a specific symptom.

You quilt, right? Do you find release in that? Maybe start increasing your time spent quilting or practicing other creative outlets.

Too, you're withdrawing from meds and it's understandable that your mood shifts can be quick. Again, I'd suggest during this time to try and spend more time doing things that calm you and try to avoid any stressors until you've done withdrawing from the meds. Once that process is over, I'd suggest the therapy route.

Hang in there.

Best,
Rachel
