The behavioral agenda is to get out of the situation (time out), figure out something to do with the energy and come back when you are calm. If you need something to put a lid on the anger, then an atypical neuroleptic will work. If you need something to lengthen your fuse, then a psychostimulant or an alpha-2-agonist will help. There are many ways of treating anger but the behavioral agenda and the habits you eventually want must be the center piece of the plan.
