   Dealing with anger was hard for me at first.  I found myself to be a very angry person about 3-years ago.  The first and most important step for me was realizing that I was getting angry and raging on others.  I now deal with things that are not in my favor by stopping, and thinking about the problem or my stressor before acting out.  I also have learned that when I'm angry, music has played a major role in dealing with what I'm going through at the time.  Music seems to calm me down and makes me eased.

   i usually prefer silence and many times lock my self in the room and shed tears to make my heart feel light if i am alone at home. if i am not home then usually try to prefer silence among other persons, because if i start bursting then its so hard to get stopped, lolz, usually with very close relations i start bursting straight away when things get messed up so badly because i am extremely sensitive person and just can't bear taunt and improper behavior. i hate lies, cheating, mind games, fabrication, so i can't tolerate such stupidities and it make me lose my temper and its so hard for me then to bear it all silently and control my anger but at heart i am very kind and tender so bit later i'm always forgiving and again dealing normally with that person just trying to forget his/her mistakes and if it were my mistake then i never hesitate to apologize as well because i do believe that to err is human and to forgive is divine so i believe in second chances too. to be very honest i just envy the people who are so cool tempered and don't lose senses in anger so i wish to be one of them indeed.

   It is sometimes very difficult but to manage anger you need to take a deep breath and whilst breathing in say to yourself that it is not worth the stress.  Think of something that makes you happy and sing a long to the memory while you walk away from what it is that makes you angry.

   A scientifically proven method is to actually have a seat, and if that doesn't work, go ahead and lie down. You will feel calm immediately and will be able to think with a clear head within seconds.

   Just put your mind on your breath. That will calm you down.
