Therapy will help enormously. You have the will to control it which is a brilliant start. Good luck!

There is a reason for this, that is why you need to see a doctor and a psychitrist. I applaud you for making that appointment.
You definatly can control that temper by behavior modification.
You need to learn anger managment. And you need to face the reason behind the rage and deal with that.
Also you need to work on what I call self talk . We often become what we tell ourselves what we are. You keep up the fear that you will rage out of control someday. Instead change your self talk....tell yourself that you have put that rage on whatever started this, then tell yourself that you have choices and you choose to NOT rage. Then learn some self relaxtion things like deep slow breathing and distracting your mind to whatever will set off your rage. It can be done.
You are very wise to see this in your self and seek help.

I would suggest you talk to a therapist rather than a psychiatrist. A psychiatrist will only prescribe medication whereas a therapist will help you work out your anger issues. Medication does not stop the anger. If you are serious in getting help find a therapist to talk to.

you acknowledge this and you want to change, so you are a good human being with a flaw. try meditation, it keeps you calm and you don't get too affected by what's happening around you. Ofcourse, you won't dee a difference overnight, but keep practising diligently, it will change your life.
