I am like this too. If I am stressed out about something I get angry with people very easily. My husband has become accustomed to my just blowing up about little things because I have a bigger problem that I am worried about. I think angry is just angry, it's not really stress.

What I do is just remember that I am worried or stressed about something and this is because it isn't entirely in my control, and that having negative feeling about it only makes me feel worse and doesn't fix the problem. Doing this takes a little time, breathing slowly and calming down at the first signs that I am losing control of feelings.

Losing control of your feelings in anger makes you less of a powerful person in your own life after also taking into consideration the fact that you have little or no power over what is stressing you out. Staying in control of your emotions will make you feel better because that is one thing that you CAN control if you put your mind to it.

I hope that makes sense.
