Remind yourself in those 10 seconds that everyone is entitled to their point of view. You'll be amazed how much of your anger just drains away.Another trick is to try to imagine the person who is annoying you doing something daft - like wearing a toga, or standing on one leg with a flower up their nose! Instead og getting angry, you'll get the giggles, which is much more fun!Good luck,

 I would suggest a visit to your gp explain the problem to them and see if they can get you referred to anger management, i also think you are great coming out and admitting that you have a problem and wanting to get it sorted.
Take care.xx.
