Phil,
First Phil, you have my sympathies. I have had to deal with anger and self-loathing. Such feelings cannibalize the soul. The enemy within, self-hatred, is the most fearsome, because there is truly no quarter from it.
Also I would to say that it is very difficult to distinguish between a biological versus a psychological/spiritual basis for self-hatred/anger.
The low dose use of the antipsychotics amisulpride or zyprexa can be very useful in dealing with anger and self-loathing. They can remove that 'savage' that often rages against oneself. Due to their novel action, these drugs can be effective where countless other drugs have not made a difference. Amisulpride is preferable to try because it usually doesn't have side effects in men and because it seems to just plain work better. But Zyprexa is available here in the US. Amisulpride must be ordered from overseas (xxx), no prescription required. To be emailed an info piece on amisulpride that I put together, email me at andrewb@seanet.com.
