Psychiatric Medicat: I would not necessarily assume that an antidepressant is the best treatment for anger. There could be a number of causes. SSRI's are very helpful for anxiety. However, it would be important to insure that there is an accurate diagnosis before prescribing medication. Is anger related to bipolar disorder, PTSD, intermittent explosive disorder, etc? Need to do a comprehensive assessment.
