Calm yourself down

Find myself a small quiet space and close my eyes and take deep breathes for 2 minutes all while I picture myself back in a nice location that can be anywhere of your pick or maybe where you have been in real life. I dream of a location that I went there once a few years back and when I get angry I mentally go back there and calm down
Sit down somewhere quiet and try to calm myself. If at home, I just start playing a game or watch anime.
I sing. Music is very calming and singing can help push out the bad emotions so I would choose a loud song to start and work my way to softer music. I'm normally a very calm person but sometimes there are things with my health that can make me nervous and singing is the way to go to help put me at ease.
If I'm at home, I can usually go sit in a corner and read. That gets my mind of whatever is making me angry.
I see anger as an addiction if I give into it. If I give into my anger, then it can make me rush into making a bad decision that I'll regret doing soon after or a little bit later. So I tell myself that anger is wrong. Some times my feelings are justified. But still. I want to be the best version of myself. So I fight it and quickly get it under control and regain my composure. Because having an anger meltdown leaves me feeling empty, depressed, and sad right after. It doesn't seem to help giving into it because I feel like I myself am replacing the problem at hand.
