How can I expect to vent rage safely when I'm irrational? That's just how I think anyway.

When you know you're getting angry and it's building, attempt to pull yourself away from whatever is causing the anger. I know that's not always possible, but when you can, do so and do something that is self-soothing. Do something active, take a bath, listen to music, play a game (kill a few zombies or something else equally in need of being destroyed). It takes longer to bring yourself down than to let it out in an irrational burst, but at least you're not in any danger of doing something you'll later regret. Take care...
