i can so totally relate to this anger issue. it scares me frankly. we have a puppy that i love so much, but sometimes when it comes up and chomps down on my arm or jumps up and down on my back when i'm sitting on the floor and he scratches his nails into my back....eeekkkk! i would never do anything but i do feel pushed to the edge sometimes. i think mine may actually be more irritability that gets mushed into anger. lamictal is what i am taking and i am starting to wonder how much longer i should stay on it with these types of feelings it induces. granted it isn't 24-7 or anything but i don't like feeling i could snap. at least on the ssri's i didn't have this feeling of snapping. i had a lot of other things on ssri's like sleeping alot, muscle tension, sleeping so deeply i didn't get up to go to the bathroom at night (trust me, this is not a good thing!)
