I would really focus on what it is you are really angry about and write it down and find a way to manage it one step at a time. I would try to eliminate the causes of your anger. It could be a much more deep seated issue from your history or something present.

I would recommend getting some blood tests to see if there are any issues with your thyroid or other function and really see if there is a possibility you may be depressed.

Psychiatrist,  Dr. Sundar Gnanavel's  Response
Hello.......
Thanks for your query. I understand your concern with inability to control anger. I would suggest a thorough psychiatric evaluation to rule out depressive disorder, personality disorders and impulse control disorders that can manifest this way. Subsequently anger management sessions along with choice of appropriate medication if required would be of use to you.
