I've noticed that lately I am quite an angry person. I've tried to 'analyze' myself and to find a possible cause or fault that would cause me to become angry. I can't find any reason, for the most part, things are quite good, no problems with work, finances, goals or ambitions. I'm generally a very laid back person, you know, the type that usually say something along the lines of 'things always turn out for the better' or 'give the problem some time and it may resolve itself as it should'... And it isn't just a subtle anger, it's like a quiet rage and I'm afraid I might snap and let it all spill out physically or otherwise. It worries me because I don't want to lose control and in the process cause harm to my wife or those around me that I love. Are there any tricks or methods I can use to not just suppress it but know how to get rid of the anger when i need to?

There's always a reason for anger. First, go to a doctor and have yourself physically checked out. Hormones, thyroid, sugar out of whack for example, can cause this reaction.
If you get the okay, then you'll have to dig down deep and search for an answer. Something's bugging you. If you can't detect it yourself and address it, then seek someone who can help you.

I think that these feelings must be overwhelming for you. I know that no one wants to hear it, but maybe talking to a counselor will help you through these feelings. If it is to the point where you are worried, then you know best. You wouldn't want anything bad to happen because of you, especially when you had warning signs before. There's no shame in seeing a counselor, sometimes we all need an intervention or an outsider to help us see things that we cannot. I think it's brave!

Controlling anger, without understanding the source, is futile. Find a therapist and talk it out. They are professionals and they can help.

For me personally, when I started waking up feeling RAGE for seemingly no reason
I KNEW it was time to seek help
Psychiatrist stated that most patients he saw with rage for no reason ended up diagnosed as bi-polar.
For my peace of mind can you please set up an appointment with a psychiatrist?
