Hang out with people that are calm on this issue. When I was younger I had a bit of an anger problem. It had more to do with being a big guy and not being able to use it very much, and lots of bad situations. The anger led to worse situations.

It didn't end the problems, but the calmness let me figure out what was going on. I played games for their beauty and fun more than my place in society. I baked bread when really frustrated. They asked me what I did to win so many baking awards and I had to say the secret ingredient was rage.

I also started doing things just to enjoy them. A lot of people said it was weird that I would go to restaurants or movies alone, but I enjoyed it. Once there, I found people who I could hang out with without worry of bad situations. As strange as it sounds, those lefty friends used to be very important people in my life. By learning to be social on my own terms, it got better and easier.
