I have been bipolar for 16 years now and periodically I would suffer from anger, but recently it seems to be getting a lot worse. Can anyone suggest what I can do to help this. I am already on all the possible meds I can be on.

L.C. try to keep yourself busy and your mind occupied that might help i still get angry myself and it times it's hard to control. So when i get that way i listen to music or go for a walk. This seems to calm me down, also try to stay away from things you feel will make you angry. I don't kmow what kind of medications you are on but the best thing that works for me is valium 3 times a day. Don't let the doctors B.S. you about valium it works better then most of the crap like seroquel which actually made me have anger problems and all i did was sleep. Good luck hope this helps.
H. I am new to this, so bear with me. I have the anger issues also. I was told it is irritable maniac, when the highs come out so does the anger. I was just "officially diagnosed" yesterday. Actually mood disorders, not bipolar, because i cycle rapidly. But, I have a friend with this issue also and she has been on valproic acid and it has really helped her. I started my first dose last night, so too soon to tell. Have you tried this?
