As a concerned member of the public and a loving member of 73, i'm going to use some of my precious time to give u a free n easy guide to anger management or rather control of your unwanted emotions. Why bother, u may ask...but i just cant bear to see precious resources n our taxpayer's $$ go to waste @ the woodbrige institute.

The natural way to express anger is to respond aggressively. Anger is a natural, adaptive response to threats; it inspires powerfulaggressive, feelings and behaviors, which allow us to defend ourselves when we are attacked.
On the other hand, we can't physically lash out at every person or object that irritates or annoys us; laws, social norms, and common sense place limits on how far our anger can take us.
People use a variety of both conscious and unconscious processes to deal with anger. The three main approaches are expressing, suppressing, and calming. Expressing your angry feelings in an assertive—not aggressive—manner is the healthiest way to express anger. To do this, you have to learn how to make clear what your needs are, and how to get them met, without hurting others. Being assertive doesn't mean being pushy or demanding; it means being respectful of yourself and others.
Anger can be suppressed, and then converted or redirected. This happens when you hold in your anger, stop thinking about it, and focus on something positive. The aim is to inhibit or suppress your anger and convert it into more constructive behavior. The danger in this type of response is that if it isn't allowed outward expression, your anger can turn inward—on yourself. Anger turned inward may cause hypertension, high blood pressure, or depression.
Unexpressed anger can create other problems. It can lead to pathological expressions of anger, such as passive-aggressive behavior (getting back at people indirectly, without telling them why, rather than confronting them head-on) or a personality that seems perpetually cynical and hostile. People who are constantly putting others down, criticizing everything, and making cynical comments haven't learned how to constructively express their anger. Not surprisingly, they aren't likely to have many successful relationships.

Steps to Achieving Emotional Stability
Breathe easy. Take long, deep, steady breaths.
Relax the face muscles. Intentionally relax your angry expression by clenching and relaxing your jaw, forehead, and mouth.
Walk away. Seek space for solitary thinking; leave the situation alone.
Own your anger. Take possession of your anger and make it your responsibility. Talk to yourself about what is happening and why it impacts you.
Make a plan. Look at possible solutions for the immediate situation and long term solutions.
Work out your anger. Physical activity or exercise can help relieve tension and anger. Go run around the chs track.

Some simple steps you can also try:
Breathe deeply, from your diaphragm; breathing from your chest won't relax you.
Slowly repeat a calm word or phrase such as "relax," "take it easy." Repeat it to yourself while breathing deeply.
Use imagery; visualize a relaxing experience, from either your memory or your imagination.
Nonstrenuous, slow yoga-like exercises can relax your muscles and make you feel much calmer.
Practice these techniques daily. Learn to use them automatically when you're in a tense situation.=)
