Hello Practo user I understand you wish to take medicines for your increased irritation and anger, but medicines are prescribed by a psychiatrist and not a Psychologist. I would personally, suggest you to first consult a clinical psychologist to help you understand and resolve the issues of anger and physiological issues that you're facing by using non-medicinal methods, as your issues seem to be more Psychological than physiological. You need to sit together with someone conserned or a clinical psychologist and explore your prior experiences to further confirm and identify the roots for the issues you are facing. High stress and frustration can often lead to increased irritation, anger and bodily symptoms like acid reflux and headaches.
Next Steps
Consult a clinical psychologist
Health Tips
* Include basic pranayam techniques in your life to calm your nerves and balance the mind-body energies. * Maintain an anger journal where you keep a record of what made you angry and how did you deal with it. This will enable you to understand your triggers and your behavior great deal.

Sometimes shift from abroad to back in country with the associated financial and facilities loss can trigger frustration and anger due to non acceptance of new circumstances. Whatever change is non acceptable deep inside  can adversely affect a person at the conscious as well as sub consious level. Nice techniques are available in Psychology like CBT, NLP, Hypnotherapy etc. to find a resolution and get relief from issues. Useful information on the concepts and the way forward is available in my website www.gansonholistics.com It is always better to solve the issues without any medicines using Psychotherapy as Psychiatric medicines can have bad side effects.

I understand your predicament and would like to make a few suggestions that might help you. I want you to know that with awareness of how the mind works and how thoughts are generated, you will get better at dealing with them. Today, the mind is fixated on something. Tomorrow it could be obsessed about another person/event/topic. Understanding the nature of the mind and how thoughts are generated will help you deal with them. The nature of the Mind, which in simple terms we experience as thoughts, is such that, it will keep shifting its focus from one object/topic/event to another. Ii always needs something to hold on to. Another important characteristic of the Mind is this - You will either have thoughts about the past or the future. This will keep alternating. Try thinking about the present moment - you will see that the Mind and 'Now' can never coexist. The Mind has 3 states in general. Sometimes, you may find yourself having very positive, inspiring thoughts. During other times, you may find yourself very emotional, or all charged for action. Whereas during other times, you may feel very lethargic, dull or lazy. These states will keep alternating. Having understood the nature of the mind, the first step towards mental health is to become aware of your thoughts. Learning to be an observer of your thoughts, learning to observe them from a distance like clouds passing in the sky. The next step is knowing that you have the power to choose which thought you wish to focus on and act on and exercising that power. With practice, you will have better mastery over this process. Having negative thoughts about anything and everything is something that plagues everybody from time to time. Trust me, even if everything was perfect, you will still find some shortcomings somewhere and brood about it. Tension or anxiety is a physiological response which is again part of being human. It is normal to have such thoughts about any situation. As mentioned above, with practice, you will learn to focus and entertain only those thoughts are healthy enough to be acted upon. Whenever you feel overwhelmed by thoughts, just bring your focus back to your breath and take a few relaxing breaths. You will automatically be able to focus on the task at hand and do what is required. Whatever you feed your mind through your sense organs will be replayed to you as thoughts. Be conscious of this. Take care of the content you feed your mind - the kind of books you read, the websites you visit, the kind of music you listen to, the kind of food you eat, the kind of company you keep ( "You are an average of five people you spend most of your time with" ) Ask yourself : Where would I like to see myself ten years from now? What should I do today to reach there ten years from now? What would I do if I knew I wouldn't fail? What would I do if I weren't afraid? No matter how impossible the answers might seem, I want you to know that you can and will make them possible. Take the first step. The rest will follow. A beautiful future awaits you. Take ownership of every time, take responsibility for it and confidently work towards your dreams and aspirations. One day you will thank these dark moments for being the fuel for your success. Exercise daily and make sure you eat healthy. Whenever negative thoughts loom over the horizon, replace them with thoughts of gratitude and all the blessings you have in life. Take ownership and responsibility for each moment and do justice to it. Celebrate these precious moments today. Tomorrow will take care of itself. Give it your best today and each day. Have faith in yourself. You are capable of dealing with this. You are going to do just fine. Take care.
