I have seen a couple of references to Phen Rage? What is it? When does it usually start? It is pretty common or uncommon? Thanks.

I'd say it's probably pretty common. It's just that feeling of getting really pissed off all of a sudden over something that shouldn't make you that mad in the first place. You'll know it when it hits you.

I felt this when I tried to detox the first time from phen, it was the PMS x 10. There has to be a relationship between phen and hormones though because my TOM keeps getting later and later and lasting longer.

lol, I had never heard of this before, but now it all makes sense. I am irish and my face turns red when I am either angry or embarassed. I have noticed lately when I feel one of those emotions my face turns really really bright red! and hot too. It normally does this a little but I guess the phen intensifies it!

Is there really such a thing as "Phen rage?" I have been a real b*@!h lately! I get out of control angry real easy, and that is not normally like me. Is there someplace that I can check out to read about it if there is such a thing?

Oh no! I had never heard of this before. That's the LAST thing I need. I'm moody enough without Phen!

Hmmm - this is an interesting topic. Is this something that happens after a long time on phen, or is it directly related to "hormonal" times?

The last time I can think of being really "rage-like" is a few years back when I tried Atkins for 2 weeks, and my hubby begged me to stop. (LOL) I blew up for no reason on an hourly basis.

Haven't experienced anything like this on phen yet - but it's only been about a week, and TOM hasn't visited yet, so we'll see!

Okay this is creepy scary!!! I am bi-polar and manic (along with other things lol). I am in my 4th week of Phen and I also started my TOM yesterday. I have a serious anger and rage problem anyways without Phen and I take meds for it. Yesterday I FLEW OFF THE HANDLE at my husband and left. I have never been so angry in my life. I was yelling so much it took my voice. I couldn't even remember why I was mad to start with. I hope this isn't a side effect that continues. My husband told me yesterday to do something about my moodiness. I got SO angry and told him that I WILL BE THIN and NO ONE (not even him) will stop me. If I am moody, oh well. I want to be thin and healthy. I hope my body adjusts to this crazy mood swings, I am nutso enough on my own.

Wow...I'm waiting to see my doctor to get a script. I'm anxious to start. I've been hard-at-it with the gym for 6wks and see'ing next to NO results! I don't think the rage can be any worse than my frustration @ this point.
