Is getting angy over small things common if you have AS or it is it a symptom of bipolar disorder?

It's not specific to any one thing.

i heard people with bipolar get so angry over small things that they almost completely blackout.

i was accused on a forum of being 'bipolar' because i kept changing my ideas frequently

It could an AS symptom....I have AS but no bi-polar and I kind of have that problem......but its usually because I am already upset about something and just holding it in and then something small will frusterate me and it might turn into a full blown rage in which I end up with bloody knuckles(metal bus stop wall thingy), a stubbed toe(box of floor tiles), or :wall:


no people or animals though.

I think it is possible that aspies get angry easilly simply because NT-s hurt them enough times. At least thats the case with me. Until I was 21 it was difficult to make me angry. At 21 some specific things happened that hurt me (they were along the lines of NT-s judging me for my aspie traits). As a result of these specific things I became an angry person ever since.

Might help us if you defined what you mean by small things, too.

Angry over being denied something you think you deserved?
Angry when someone changes a rule/imposes a rule you didn't know about?
Angry because your can opener is broken and you really want that beef-a-roni NOW?
