Anger is normally build up by some suppressed emotions/issues. Its good if you can find the source of your anger and deal with it in order to stop the anger.

try to first relax and then find out what part of the situation that makes you angry. Once you do that, you will be able to face it more authortatively, whether the situation is caused by your own beliefs about others or when others directly made you angry.

Ask yourself why you're angry, and reflect on your emotion. I often find that when I think about why I'm angry, I not only learn stuff but I end up relaxing a little.

This is a tough one. I've often wondered how to stop being angry all the time. Whether it's at your husband, wife, girlfriend, or boyfriend - figuring out how to stop being angry is really important in day to day life, and will make everyday experiences better and more pleasant. I'd suggest talking to someone on 7 Cups, to try and find out what sorts of things are making you angry. Is it depression, anxiety, or grief? Something else?

When things frustrate you, take a moment to breathe before you react. Think about what has frustrated you. Think about how you can change your attitude and respond in a calm manner.
