ryan,

You may have rejection sensitive dysphoria.

Rejection sensitive dysphoria (RSD) is extreme emotional sensitivity and pain triggered by the perception that a person has been rejected or criticized by important people in their life. It may also be triggered by a sense of falling short—failing to meet their own high standards or others’ expectations.

When this emotional response is externalized, it looks like an impressive, instantaneous rage at the person or situation responsible for causing the pain.

The first medication mentioned as a possible treatment, guanfacine, changed my life to such a degree I did not think was possible.

I encourage you to read through the entire article and maybe discuss with your doctor on possible treatments if this sounds like what you experience.
