[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I've actually started wondering whether it could be early signs of dementia.  However, he has always had a bad temper.  It has just escalated a great deal during the last several years.  I have told him that he is acting more erratic and is unable to control his temper and have suggested that he should see a doctor.  That provoked another outburst, so I am not sure how to handle this going forward.  [/quote]

OP this is totally possible.  He is around the age where my grandmother's behavior became much more erratic and she wasn't diagnosed with Alzheimer's for a decade more.  When my parents discuss they posit that she was showing signs of dementia in her 50s.  I noticed a similar thing with my father, a behavior change, but strokes were the culprit.

Men are also angry when they are depressed.  DH went through a screaming phase at midlife and it was only a real threat of divorce and cajoling/shaming from family and our pastor that led him to get help.  But I was 100% ready to leave and was getting my ducks in a row, and that was after years of the behavior.  He says now that he really needed counselling.  It boggles my mind, honestly, how anyone thinks it is ok to treat their family that way.  I think about it so much.[/quote]
