THAT sounds familiar! With mine, I've also concluded it is self-medicating for his ADHD. When we had him successfully medicated the raging and yelling stopped...now that he's nearly 18 and has chosen to go off the meds again ("because I don't feel like myself when I'm on them") it's back to blow ups and yelling. THis kid's permanent emotion is ANGRY - that's his resting state. It takes VERY positive energy to get him into any other emotion...and then he just returns to angry anyway.
