irrational anger and severe outbursts

I have a severe anger problem that i need to get control of. I have been diagnosed bipolar, but thats no excuse. I will take something my wife says and blow it so far out of proprtion that she has threatened to leave on numerous occasions. And when these fights are going on, i turn and get mean, underhanded, spiteful and accusatory. I threaten the worst things, never physical harm. I twist things she says, and i do make her feel ignored a lot, even though i dont mean to. I have tried meds, and tried to stop on my own but its started to take over my persobality and im losing the caring, sweet person i used to be. I dont know how to stop myself no matter how badly i want to. Its like someone else takes over. Now shes pregnant and my problem is getting worse. Im afraid i'll cause her to lose the baby. I am lost, and dont know what to do.

Another problem is i make her feel ignored, and i fall asleep alot, at very innapropriate times. She feels like shes not interesting enough to keep me awake, even though ots been suspected to be either shift work disorder or narcolepsy. I hate that i am making her feel this way, and am desperate to stop and make her feel how mich i do care, how much i want to change things. I know i had a crappy childhood, and a lot of bad experiences, but it shouldnt be causing this much hurt to people i do love and who mean the world to me.

Your peace of mind is closely related to how you treat yourself physically. With that in mind, may I ask you some questions?

Are you eating the right amount of healthy food? (no junk)
Are you drinking the right amount of healthy drinks? (no alcohol, caffeine or fizzy)
Are you taking the right amount of healthy exercise?
Are you getting a good balance between work, rest and play?
Are you looking after your personal appearance and your living environment?
Are you contributing to your local community?
Are you able to forgive past hurts?
Are you able to trust your intuition?
Are you grateful to the people who make your life more comfortable?
