ammaraklancan we say he pleads family,s problemsI'm assuming you mean to use an appostrophe rather than a comma.
"Family problems" is the common collocation in this sort of statement.
(I like "pleads." I think the mock legal style works - like, "He pleads insanity as the reason for his outburst.")
You can also use "blames."
