  1. 1
    Find a group of people who make you feel safe and accepted.

     
     
     
     
     
  2. 2
    Realize that it is not acceptable to be angry all the time. You need to learn how to control your anger or you'll end up worse than what you think you'll end up like while you're angry.

     
     
     
     
     
  3. 3
    Think about who you hurt when you're angry. Yourself, those who care about you, and potentially the person you're frustrated with.

     
     
     
     
     
  4. 4
    Think about someone who has been short tempered with you at some time in your life – a family member, a schoolmate, or anyone else. It's never pleasant to have somebody upset or angry with you. Try to understand that the other person is probablynot trying to tick you off. They may be trying to tell you that you have done something unacceptable. Or sometimes, they are just plain envious.

     
     
     
     
     
  5. 5
    Examine your feelings. What did that person do? What do you feel must be done to "fix" the situation so you can feel better? Walking away, telling who's annoying you that they're upsetting or bothering you, changing the subject or ignoring whatever is upsetting you can all help.

    Do not take your anger out on other people or yourself. If you really feel the need to express your anger physically, punch your pillow or something like that.

     
     
     
     
     
  7. 7
    Seek help if necessary. If you cannot get past your anger and you start to plan on what you can do to get even, this is a warning signal that your problem is getting bigger than you.

    Read a book. Pick up a classic from your local library and realize the potential for human thought and intellect.
