Hello, kimmyann - I had the high-irritability issues a few weeks into my post-collision phase. It was horribly frustrating/aggravating trying to "deal with it all" all on my own/solo, such as insurance adjusters, misinformation from my own auto ins. adjuster and bullying by the at-fault auto ins. adjuster; trying to get medical appts., trying to function 'optimally' to deal/cope with all of it, when in fact I was simply in no way able to function 'optimally'. It subsided once I let go of a lot of those struggles and just settled in for a long period of rest, rest and more rest.
I don't have the rage inssues. However, a good buddy in TBI support group does have that problem, now more than a decade post-severe TBI/spinal cord injury. I just spent timeon the phone letting his mom 'vent' because she is so-o-o worn out from his rage-abuse. They've been to every kind of specialist & are told that it could be "some kind of seizure" that triggers that part of the brain. He's on seizure meds, yet still rages on. He, like me, is in his 50s.
Have you been thoroughly checked by neurologist for possible seizure disorder?
