My first suggestion would be to get him to exercise. Not only is it good for you and will it give you more energy on a daily basis, but it is a GREAT stress reliever. He should try to channel his stress/anger into other constructive things too, such as hobbies. Does he have any?

How is his sleep?

What type of medication is he on and for what reason?

Do you have a pet? The reason I ask is that numerous studies have shown that having a pet reduces stress. Even fish make a difference. Who knew!
