I need to consult psychiatrist for my brother My brother is 34 yrs old. He gets angry and becomes irritated on small small issues. He is working in a call centre. He had polio but after the polio has been treated he is become more short tempered kind of a person. he abuses when he is driving when someone overtakes him. we need some suggestion for his sudden mood change prob. He is very noble hearted person but when he gets angry he himself dont know how is is behaving with his elders but when he calms down he aplogise for his behaviour. He do not drink or smoke . Please advise?

Hello ~ It seems like your brother has an anger management problem and impulsively becomes angry at little things.  However it also seems like these anger episodes are predictable, which makes it amenable to treatment.  I suggest that your brother take anger management classes or complete a do it yourself book for anger management.  It is helpful to consult a psychiatrist if you or your brother feels like this is not helping and medications may hold a key to the question of anger. I hope this helps.  Take care.
