hey gravitate, it good that you come to know your problem. you can try with meditation ,yoga. it will give peace of mind ,and you will find that your actions are in your control and do not depend on how others behave with you and what others do. this will help you to stay happy and see every situation in a positive way.
do not ever try to control your anger.keeping your feelings like anger inside you will bring health problems . show your anger on the person you are angry with BUT in a matured way. make them understand your feelings. if this does not work then go to a gym and show your anger on the machines ,it will benefit you :) all the best dear.

here are a few ideas that I looked up for you. Finding helpful tips always helps me so much. It gives me a sence of not feeling alone in my feelings and that others also have this going on at times. Have a good day!

Take a break as soon as you recognize that you're angry. Stop what you're doing, get away from whatever is irritating you, and take a breather. Getting away from whatever's upsetting you will make it infinitely easier to calm down. Try it out in these situations:
If you're experiencing road rage, pull over on a side road and turn off the car.
If you're angry at work, go to the break room or step outside for a moment. If you drive to work, consider sitting in your car so that you're in a space you own.
If you're upset at home, go to a single-occupancy space (such as the bathroom) or for a walk.
If you're experiencing anger in an unfamiliar place, don't just wander off by yourself. Tell whoever you're with that you need a short mental vacation, and ask that he or she stand a few extra paces away from you. Close your eyes and try to imagine yourself somewhere peaceful.

Breathe deeply. If your heart hammers with rage, slow it down by controlling your breathing. Count to three as you inhale, hold the breath in your lungs for three more seconds, and count to three again as you exhale. Focus only on the numbers as you do this, and refuse to think about whatever is angering you. Repeat as many times as necessary.
Go to a "happy place". If you're still having a difficult time calming down, imagine yourself in a scene you find incredibly relaxing. It could be your childhood backyard, a quiet forest, a solitary island - whatever locale makes you feel at-home and peaceful. Focus on imagining every detail of this place: the light, the noises, the temperature, the weather, the smells. Keep dwelling on your happy place until you feel completely immersed in it, and hang out there for a few minutes or until you feel calm

Ask yourself this: Is there a good reason why you get angry? Or is the anger already there and waiting for a reason to come out?
In the first case I think it's your right to get angry, only this way it will not eat you (and make you sick) and people know how you feel about it. If you are overreacting you can work on that. If the anger already is there you have to investigate when it started. Perhaps in your early childhood? Was there a very good reason for it and did nobody pay attention to it? Is this old pain still there and you never got over it? Then you need to work on that.
If you get agressive and violent go look for some help as well so you can express yourself/your anger in a different way and make people listen to you instead of being afraid of you.

Hi gravite! Take a deep breath. That's the first thing I can recommend for you to do. When you feel that you can no longer control you temper, you should take a walk, anywhere that you can relax. Avoid concentrating too much on the things that you think might make you angry.
