I’m not sure what all you’ve been doing to work on your issues beside some meds and some counseling, but have you thought about doing some meditation or some martial arts/boxing training?

Yes, this.

Channeling anger and/or frustration into some sort of martial arts or boxing training is actually a good idea. It’s amazing how therapeutic a few rounds with a punching bag is. A friend of mine is a Krav Maga instructor. He swears by it for fitness AND stress relief.

Take up running. Take a few meditation courses. Find something that you like to do that involves getting away from all your usual stress/anger triggers. Medication and counseling only go so far. Getting physical activity and finding hobbies and things outside of yourself are also great ways of dealing with stress.
