[QUOTE="GoingNorth, post: 692483, member: 1963"] LOL IC. husband used to make bread when he was about to go over the edge. One night I was eating a slice of a really lovely multi-grain bread and complimented him on it. He said, "Thanks hon. I was seriously pissed off!" My dad,who was bipolar and raged occasionally, worked a second (sometimes third) job delivering beer and bottles to bars. When he got to "that point", he'd go down to the warehouse and load a few trucks. A full keg under each arm, no less! Or, he'd go out to the garden and chop weeds. The high exertion activity was enough to defuse the rage. The thing is that over the years, he'd learned to know when the rage was coming on and begin displacement activity before he blew up. If your son can get to that point, and come up with a displacement behavior, he'll be a lot better off. [/QUOTE]
