Through writing - after you write your thoughts out, you can always burn them...maybe like getting rid of the feelings.
A stress ball....
Exercise....
Music...

Wait till you cool off. Anger has only two outcomes... it intimidates others, or causes you to lose control of the situation. Truth is, anger is useless. Going deeper, you are probably not angry at anyone but yourself so you take it out on others. Nothing is worth getting angry about coz there is always another solution. Change your perspective. Good luck.

Reacting from anger is usually a mistake..its better to take a moment to regroup before you decide how to handle high tempered situations. The Bible says "Be angry and sin not", so don't feel guilty for being mad. Its natural, however to sin is err, to forgive divine. So, recognize your anger as justified or not, and forgive. No one's purrfekt.

Plug into your iPod, turn on some Slayer, crank up the volume, and lift very heavy weights at the gym until your arms can't move anymore. Works every time.

talk to the person you're angry with. don't shout. but before you talk to the person, rehearse what you will say first. no need in blurting out all kinds of profanities or other hurtful things. that will have this person angry with you as well. so. . . .calm down, think about what you will say, and speak the TRUTH

my brother has the same problem! he hits me and makes huge brueses and you dont want to end up like him. at first we were freinds then he kinda slaped me and it turned into extreme injurys and when i was 10 he ripped my favorite dolls arm off! now when he walks past me i quinch! do you want to be like him? think about it. do you want people that you love to quinch when you walk by? he has complete power over me and when he walks toward me i automaticly run and there is nothing he can do at this point to make me feel safe and calm when he is around! you need to take this story fopr consideration. think about what happened to my brother and maybe you will understand that it is serious and your loved ones can go running from you if you keep it up. i hope this helps!

how about purchasing koosy ball and squeezing it as hard as you can as many times as you can? Or express your anger in words but choose your words carefully.
