Hello, I am from India. My husband has problems of anger attacks. He gets angry very easily on simple things and he also has mood swings. When he gets angry, he cannot be controlled. he throws things, breaks things and even once tried to put things on fire. He also beat me one day hard during his anger. I took him to a psychiatrist and he gave him Arip Mt 30 mg, but he is not willing to take it after taking 3 doses as he is experiencing nausea and dizziness . Kindly suggest.
Hi there ~ It is not uncommon to experience anger and physical aggression in psychiatric disorders.  Your husband seems to be having problems with mania which is common is bipolar disorder.  I am thinking that your husband gradually got worse over time and assuming this, it is easier to put someone on medications and try to wait and watch for results.  However, symptomatic treatment is recommended in acute and subacute cases and anger management or sleep management might be of initial use before going on to titrate the dose of the mood stabilizer, in this case Trip MT.  It may also help to seek the expert advise of a psychiatrist regarding medication changes and a counselor to help with any stressors/family problems. I hope this helped.  Take care.
