What Causes Excessive Anger And Irritation?

I ve worried about my mental stability for about 2-3 years. I have days where I m completely irritated or I ll go from having a good day to being really angry and annoyed. And some days where I barely get up. I ve had a past of self harm which I ve been clean from, but every time I m fuel with anger I just want to tear myself open. I ve been some what calm for a week maybe but a few times just completely ticked off for no reason, just not as bad as full outbursts with so much anger.Do you think I should see someone in person? Do you think there s something wrong with me?

Hi welcome to health care magic...

You are basically having irritability problem along with anger....
For this two condition ruled out first....
-Anemia esp. B12 deficiency for that serum ferritin, hb estimation and b12 level checked.
If deficiency than corrected accordingly...

-Hyperthyroidism for which TSH level and free t4 checked ...
(diarrhea, heat intolerance like symptom also present if hyperthyroidism there)

If no specific cause found than consult psychiatrist for further examination and behavioural therapy....

Take care
