Is explosive rage connected in any way to being pre-diabetic? [View all]

[LiberalEsto]

Folks, I am having a very hard time at home.

My husband has been having terrifying outbursts of rage lately over any kind of stress or frustration. He yells, screams, pounds the walls and scares the wits out of me. I am afraid he is going to give himself a stroke or heart attack.

In recent months our family doctor has told him he is pre-diabetic and needs to go on a diabetic diet. I am trying to make the necessary changes in cooking, but I have no way of knowing what he eats while at work. He recently admitted to me that he spends a lot of money on candy at work, but claims he stopped.

There has been a lot of stress recently. His father died last month, and he changed jobs, and filling out the zillions of forms for the new job has definitely been frustrating for him. But I've never seen him get this crazy angry, or get angry this often.

I hope someone here is familiar with this and can help me, because it's making me a wreck.
Thanks, LE
