    Lately in the last 2 years I have noticed that I am angry more often and it is ruining my life. I can't help it when I am angry, in fact I think it could be a medical problem

    For the simplest of reasons, I would lash out at someone and not even realise it

    Has anyone else come across this and if so what have they done

    What age are you? It could be related to chemical change in your body eg puberty/menopause. Also giving your gender might help if you feel it’s a medical issue.

    its great you are aware of it now and want to change this. there are ways to manage anger, you could look it up on the internet - here's a link to the American Psycological Association's anger page http://www.apa.org/topics/controlanger.html

    dont forget, you always always have a choice how to react. if you tell yourself that you are not going to loose it the next time you are angry, then that should help too. step away from it and breathe first before you react. that might help.

    if you want to describe in more detail here what you mean by "lashing out" at someone that would help too.

    If you feel it may be medical then do go to your Dr about it.
    S/He can see if it is and if it isn't can refer you to someone that may be able to help.
