UConn wants to know why you're angry?

Actually if they come up with ways to help you control your anger that would be a good thing but unless they are planning on addressing the spiritual side of PTSD, they will not be able to find the best way to treat it. Much like AA works on the spiritual issues, when ex-active-alcoholics stop drinking without addressing it, they end up being what is called a "dry drunk" and usually remain pretty nasty.

PTSD hits the emotional part of the brain and this should be directly tied to the spiritual life of anyone they treat. Without it, they are receiving only a third of the help they need. They need to be treated body, mind and soul.

Anger keeps soldiers alive and keeps them going long after their bodies are too tired to move. It keeps them alert long after they want to fall asleep. This emotion was part of the reason they survived and it is the strongest one even when they come home and cannot "get over it" when they have nothing else to fight against accept what is happening inside of them.
