First of all, I have empathy for both of you. I know that I have never gotten as angry as you, butthead, and I have not been on medication (or needed it) so I cannot really know what you are going through. As far as what little advice I can give you, it mostly deals with recognizing my place in the world. Oftentimes, I feel superior to others, like when I am driving. It is almost like people are tring to drive stupid. I have to accept that there are different people and skill levels in the world. Or at work, my boss is not out to get me. She may make stupid decisions occasionally, but she is not trying to sabotage my life. She is just too stupid to listen, and I cannot control that. This has all sounded pretty arrogant, so far. I do recognize that others have skills and abilities that I do not have. I just have to remember that most people are not intentionnaly trying to cause me strife. i have to sit back, take a breath, and try to understand their side of the situation. In some ways it changes as you get older, but my wife complains about my behavior sometimes.
