[quote=Anonymous]OP, focusing upstream, treating alcohol use disorder and evaluating for and treating ADHD will likely prevent the downstream symptom of emotional reactivity. The drinking likely is self medicating the reactivity and a coping mechanism for the shame that many adults with untreated ADHD carry. Trying to address the downstream symptoms isn't working. I think many posters who found divorce a reprieve as kids had no to limited contact with angry parent alone. Nowadays, it's not like that. Start at Al Anon for you. Have him go to the PEP class on Anger to "learn to help child," maybe you both can attend. See how he reacts to that and what it brings up re: his own childhood, etc. It will perhaps be a start.
