I have this problem as well. I feel out of control with the anger. I think that getting into a fight is a chance to conquer something that feels so out of control. I literally get on my own nerves! I just recently got on meds, so that I can live with people. Seems like everything ticks me off.
Doc put me on buspar 1st (due to my request). It raised the depression abit and then the rage under it exploded at everything and everyone. I knew that this was a major problem, because I couldn't think of living with anyone. Doc then put me on lexapro, because I refused to take Paxil. I told him I wouldn't touch that drug, due to the side effects and awful withdrawal. (I know it helps some, but look what you have to sacrifice!) Lexapro is calming the rage, but the sex drive is absolutely gone. I bet the weight thing will raise it's ugly head too. I am at my perfect weight. So, is it weight gain and no sex with hubby or will it be sex drive and not able to live with people. Hmmmm Sounds like something to just tick me off again. I am still taking the drug to help me live in society, but I feel like I am giving up a lot to do it.
