Anger is an important part of being human, beign able to harnes angr gives you great power, but letting anger take control of you can destroy you and everything you've worked hard to achieve. My advice is if you find yourself getting angry find a way out of the situation, be it physically or emotionally / by changing the conversation or activity. Also if you let the thing which is making you angry move from your head to your "heart" you'll find you have a lot more space and logic to be able to deal with it and work out whether it was worth getting angry over and what you could do to stop getting angry over it again if you find that to be case. Another interesting way of looking at it is that odds are if you have short anger spans you have a lot of built up anger and tension that you may not even notice, but it is stopping you from dealing with your day to day events in a manner which you wish to to see yourself as a "good" person... try to find what these are and deal with them by talking them through with someone you trust... or by thinking about them yourself.
Best of luck!

It is not so difficult to become a better person as we think. Every day you can do something in order to improve yourself and your life.
In your journey to become a better person, you may have some hardships at first but the result is always rewarding. The reward may not be in physical form but the moral satisfaction.
At last, remember that there are times where you need to stand up for yourself. You can never be completely good, and you can't let trying to be a good person ruin your fun. You just need to consider how people feel.
Good luck!

Hello,
It is hard to do that alone but you have to try... learn how to forget a little thing that you always angry about. Think more before you talk... Ask yourself if that is right to angry about, can you solve it nicely? hold yourself before it blow out.
My husband has a high temper and it is hard for him to take it at the first place but I have to try to help him out to go through this. At first, he just mad or angry with something that is not even a thing... so I just explain to him when he clam down... sometime I have to let him release his stress out... then come and comfort him right after. It takes time but you have to learn to deal with it.

You do have self control, it just flies out of control when you get upset about something. Talking to a therapist might help you find the underlying causes and ways to prevent it. Somethings that might help though, first when you feel it happening stop and just breath, I know this sounds corny but just breath and focus on breathing until you feel your blood pressure returning to normal, if it doesn't, then walk away. Choose to not deal with what is upsetting you until you can think clearly.
