I actually asked for advice for self-control when feeling angry on formspring.me/AdviceAndHelp
Here's the response, which I felt was pretty good advice:

If you have been feeling stressed that could be why [you feel angry]. I suggest you:

- Take deep breaths.
- Try figuring out why you're so angry.
- If you feel like hitting something hit a pillow or something that you won't hurt or something that won't hurt you.
- Spend time alone for awhile.
- Express yourself; write in a notebook about what makes you mad or what person makes you mad & why.
- Let it leave your mind.
- Relax, breathe in & out.

& think of happier thoughts.

A quote that goes along:
"we can not control what happens to us, but you can control your attitude towards what happens to you, In that you will be mastering change without it mastering you."
Thanks for this!
