Anger

should I be concerned about this behaviour from DH? He has an extra screen for working and made a little shelf to attach to his desk. Cut/shaped and glued two parts together. Left it to set and it had moved and was misaligned. He started shouting and threw it out of the back door. He then went outside and smashed it to bits.
All while our son was stood beside him watching. And our son has had help for anger issues not too long ago.
I'm so disappointed

Yeah that's a huge overreaction to quite a minor issue. I would be concerned, has he never had overblown reactions like this before?

It sounds like he needs anger management classes as well and that’s probably where your son got it from

There is a point when it just gets you. Like genuinely gets you. Few weeks ago I had to by a new item because old was misbehaving, I needed to use it and I ended up smashing it. I also ended up crying, which just simply nearly never happens... Kt was like thousand little things sudsenly came out.
I don't have a child though especially one with these issues, that needs consideration. But. I get why he may have lost it if it's not usual. This last lockdown is really getting to me and it manifesting like that unfortunately.
He needs to go and talk to DC though
