1 simple tip- : Count to 10 before acting on the urge to impulsively harm someone physically or emotionally. Reduce anger by deep breathing. Breath in deeply ; slowly through the nostrils. Hold air in lungs for a 5 count before slowly exhaling through an open mouth. Repeat until you cool your jets. Focus on your breathing not what is making you angry. Cognitive behavioral therapy is excellent for dealing with.

Anger: Realize anger usually covers over other more vulnerable emotions, like sadness, disappointment, hurt, and try to address these feelings in an open way with those close to you.

Counseling: One is you can't do it yourself. It's helpful to talk to someone to understand what is driving it. There is usually a reason for it. Without that reason you won't be able to grasp the solution. You asking this question is a great step- applaud you for it.
