1) Check Jazz's thread and come out to Tahoe with us
2) You hit the nail on the head. RELEASE the Wanting to be Angry! It sounds absurd, why would you WANT to be angry. I don't know, but we trick ourselves into saying we DON'T want to to be angry, but our subconscious can't visualize the negative (Can't, won't, don't, etc) So it visualizes "we want to be angry." So try this, think about a situation that makes you angry. Let the feelings of anger just be there, don't try to eliminate them, just let them be. Then ask yourself if you can LET THEM GO? Will you let them go? WHEN? (hint, do it now ) I like to imagine a huge vault door opening up and those feelings just floating out the door (you can pick whatever you want to visualize the releasing). Then you're free to actually deal with the actual thing rather than the feeling.
It works. It takes some getting used to but it works.
We can talk ourselves into defeat or we can talk ourselves into victory - we are creatures of our thinking.
