Without focusing on something better, it feels impossible to supress or control anger. There has to be a reason you don't want to act on the anger, and that should be your focus. Will you be sorry later? Will it make you get carried away and do something unplanned that you'll be sorry for? Will you be embarrassed? Do you simply wish to be free of the anger controlling your other wishes? Once there is a focus, you can attach all your energy and strength to it. If you still can't control the anger juice, workshops or counseling are available to develop the techniques for that. Best of luck to you.

How to transform Anger?
It is very easy to control; it is very difficult to transform. You can control you anger, but what will you do? You will suppress it. And what happens when you suppress a certain thing? The direction of its movement changes. It was going out, and when you suppress it, it starts going in. Its direction changes. And for anger to go out was good, because the poison needs to be thrown out. It is bad for the anger to move within, because that means your whole body-mind structure will be poisoned by it. And then if you continue to do for a long time as everybody has been doing - not transforming but controlling your anger - all the negative things get buried deeper and deeper into the unconscious, and then they remain constantly within you. Finally the anger stays with you and you remain so, always.
The goal of anger management is to reduce both your emotional feelings and the physiological arousal that anger causes. You can't get rid of or avoid the things or people that enrage you, nor can you change them; but you can learn to control your reactions
Finally, you can calm yourself down inside. This means not just controlling your outward behavior, but also controlling your internal responses, taking steps to lower your heart rate, calm yourself down, and let the feelings subside.

In my experience, those who suppress their anger, and never vent their frustration, will one day just explode over something stupid and trivial. It won't be that they think it's a fighting offense that someone else drank the last soda, or whatever, but they're still REALLY mad about everything that's gone wrong over the past few months.
It's better to try to resolve whatever is wrong, although if it is not possible to calm down enough to do this rationally just at the moment, it's acceptable to say something like "we need to talk about this later. I need to go, now" and go hit some pillows, or something. You may not even need to say anything, it's happened to me before that I left a situation that was very public, and the person who had offended me got chewed out by everyone else in the room on my behalf.
If it isn't a situation you can leave, and the person isn't your equal ( your boss, a teacher, or what have you) then try to talk it out right away, and try not to sound too accusatory. Statements like "I can't agree with that" or "I feel hurt as a result of that statement" may go a lot better than "you're wrong, jerkface." It might help you feel better to say "he's wrong, and such a jerk" later, to someone who isn't involved in the situation at all. Complaining to a third party doesn't seem all that mature, but if your discussion with the person you're mad at left you feeling unresolved, it's better to get it out than to let it sit there in your mind and fester.

You shouldn't suppress your anger. It is unhealthy for you. You should just find a constructive way to vent it that's not harmful to anyone. Try exercise or punching bags if its that intense. Try talking the problem out with someone. You should really vent your frustration in some way. Good Luck

I believe that anger suppression can be a fatal disease. I NEVER suppress ANYTHING! If you are angry, then BE FUC*ING ANGRY! If you are sad, then DO IT RIGHT! If you are happy, then THROW yourself into the world and play! This world is full of counterfeit people. We don't need any more of them, so BE ANYTHING AND ANY WAY YOU WANT TO BE and be thankful that you have the choice!

This is a great question yet difficult to answer.
The method I choose may not be adequate for anyone else.
The method you choose may not be adequate for anyone else.
In my opinion only, I do not believe anger should be suppressed.
I believe one should embrace their own anger and try to discover a way to channel it toward a positive outcome.
After saying this, I know it is no small thing to accomplish. I have been working on this all my life.
One thing I have learned for me is music helps me to mitigate negative outcomes for my anger.
Have fun but be safe!

Consider the source of your anger. Is it worth your emotion. Most of the time when were angry it's because we can't control a person, place or thing. Most of the time it's not worth it because we can't change people. Remove yourself from the situation that you know is making you upset and remember somethings just are not worth our time or emotion.

I don't want you to think I am sounding rude by saying this but I think that if you went to therapy it might help. My sister had an anger problem and she went to therapy and got to talk out all of her feelings and it really helped her.
