Go up to a random person on the street and beat the crap out of them.

People who are easily angered are so because they have very 'strict rules' about things.
They want things to be in a very specific certain way and when things do not go their way, they will find themselves feeling upset.
Before you 'control' your anger, you need to understand what causes you anger?
What are some of the situations that get you very angry and WHY do those situations get you angry?
Now that you understand why and what, are you able to 'loosen the rules' ?
Eg, if you get angry everytime your mum nags at you, that is because you think she is irritating at that point. Now, if you only saw concern in your mum's nagging and everytime she nagged at you, you feel like she is cooking your favourite meal for you, how would you feel? probably a lot more peaceful right? ;)
Another way you can try is that when you are angry, look at the thing or person that has caused your anger and think of a funny scenerio related to them.
I had a friend who had this irritating colleague who made her very angry. I asked her to imagine her colleague becoming fatter and fatter and fatter until she was like a balloon.. and that she started to grow a pig's nose.. and started to flap and fly up into the air.. the ridiculous thought of that made her laugh and she was able to contain her anger ;)
good luck!

When you feel yourself becoming angered, make yourself back away from the situation. Think to yourself what is making you angry and what is the best way to react to it. Most of the time, a violent retort, etc. is only going to make the situation worse, and then you may end up doing something that you regret. The biggest thing that can help you control your temper is to simply think about the way you react before you do, and try to resolve what is angering you in the best way possible.

First off I want to commend you for coming forward and asking such a question. It says you are admitting u have an anger problem :) i'm proud of u for this big step. What you should do is find a counseling center near you and start taking sessions. You won't change over night or in a day or anything it takes time it may take you a year to find yourself and learn to control it which is normal hang in there and yay to you for wanting to change it :)

First of all you have to realize that you are in control of your anger. Then you have to recognize what it is that you do when you get angry. Then you need to figure out whether those actions can cause harm to you or someone else. If you are worried about causing harm, you should see a therapist for help.

Leave the situation count to ten and then ten reasons why you would not want to allow your anger to control you. Don't return to the situation until you have ten reasons. Best wishes

admitting you have anger issuses would be a start! next is looking them dead in the eye and taking control of them rather than them of you. Several ways to at least start is write it down, scream in a pillow, or hit your bed... pending on how youd normally handle it.

what kind of reactions do you have with your anger. This would help as far as being able to assist yourself in controling your anger.
Also, bottom thing to remember, ONLY YOU are responsible for HOW you react to a situation. "I feel this way, or I did this 'thing' in reaction to what you (they) said or did' Put those words in daily thought... See how it goes.
