Unless it is rightful anger - for example in response to cruelty like seeing someone kicking a dog - then anger is actually a cover-up for deeper more painful feelings of sadness or fear or loss. It feels easy to get angry because we have more control. It is an energetic response rather than a passive, helpless response. It is often, also, learned ie copied behaviour. Let´s look at what is going on for you that makes anger your go-to and how to re-channel this misplaced energy into something more helpful.
Anger management often shows itself as frustration with lack of control over external circumstances as well as passing on pressures from others. My go-to on this is coaching based on Stoicism, particularly applying insights from Marcus Aurelius (e.g: "the consequences of anger often exceed the causes of it") and Seneca, who reminds us that emotional responses are rarely rational.
