What I do is when I'm angry, I count to 10, walk away from my conflict, and then I write down what happened in a journal. Later once I've cooled off I go back and look at what I wrote and reflect and it makes me realize I get angry over silly things! My anger has become so much more controllable since then.

Accept that the anger you feel is a natural reaction, but the way you let it impact your life and the lives of others is up to you.

What I usually do whenever I feel angry is to let my stress out in some way or form that is safe, not just for me but for others as well. What I do first is I try to catch my breath/breathe calmly. Breathing helps me clear my thoughts and helps me analyze the situation better. This helps me think of a "good" way to approach my problem and to put out an appropriate response. This whole process is definitely not easy, but I do think it is worth a try, and with enough practice it can surely help with anger management.

The best way I have learned about dealing with anger, is to breath, slowly and meaningfully. We all deal with highly frustrating situations and sometimes it's out of our control. What's important to notice if it's something you can or cannot control, when it happens. If it's something you can control, what can you do to help fix or deal with the next time you get angry. For example, If you're angry because maybe a co-worker, did something wrong and made it 10 times worse. Talk to your co-worker. It's best to talk to him in a calm and collected matter. Explain it to your co-worker, why it made you upset and show him in a friendly way, how to do it correctly. If it's something you cannot control, for example. Someone, cutting you off on the freeway and almost hitting you. Do you're breathing exercises and accept you had to control in that situation and you are still safe. Think about the person, that did that to you. Why that person would do something about that. He could be late, stressed, and/or emotional, even if it's not true. I hope this helps, the next time, you feel anger.

You can learn to better manage your anger by getting support from people you know or learning it from different resources you have that you think can help you.

Breathe in deep and think even just for 5 seconds , is it worth it? If it is a person you are angry with, think what could have possibly made him do what he did? Try putting yourself in their shoes. More importantly, be aware of yourself, it is crucial that we learn to choose our battles. The world is cruel and it will not stop giving you crap , so if you choose to react to every single thing it throws at you , you will lose and it will forever rain on your parade. Just remember to breathe.
