Rage

Hi I struggle with depression, as well as borderline personality disorder.  I suffer from blind rage, and I was wondering if anyone suffers with this.  How did you manage your anger, so that it didn't get out of control.  I get angry because I feel no one understands my situation.  Please help!  Any advice would be sooo appreciated!

Are you receiving any professional mental health care? If so, have you talked to your doctor or a therapist about your anger? Talking to a therapist is a good option for you. There are anger management classes available. You could check with your local Department of Social Services to see if they offer anything that may help you or they could refer you to someone.

My brother has excessive anger. His doctor put him on medication that reduces the anger
level. But you have to use anger management techniques, talk to therapist in addition to
the medication.

I do see a therapist and am on medication. I just told my therapist about my rage last week, but I still want to mention it to my psychiatrist when I see her in a couple of weeks. Thanks for your help! I really appreciate it!
