Hi Sam.
Have you ever had anger issues while not taking medications?
I guess the obvious question is whether or not you have tried the MAOIs Nardil or Parnate.
If you are satisfied with the antidepressant effect of tramadol, but are concerned only with the anger issues, perhaps adding a drug like Trileptal or Depakote would help. Both drugs are anticonvulsants. Trileptal seems to be particularly good at treating anger and hostility. Tegretol might be even better, but it has side effects that must be monitored frequently. Depakote would probably be the better choice if you are bipolar and are experiencing a mixed-state.
