Perhaps you're holding back feelings regarding some other bigger aspect and they just spew out over little things instead.

Because you let yourself.

90% of people who get angry really easy... it has almost nothing to with other people. So, i suggest you to "stalk" your emotions and find out where they start from. It is maybe your own insecurity that causes this?

But like camael said. Its a personal question, its hard to answer without knowing anything about you.

Because it's about you and not about the "stuff" that happens.

creamsicle is right. often when we have bigger issues that we are suppressing, our anger comes out in many little ways...

first of all, sharingiscaring must be the immature one in that they have not suffered stress or any emotional distress, as that is what happens when something is working deep within us, we start fixating on the small things as a coping mechanism.

I get angry about little things, too. Don't think of it as a negative reaction unless it prevents you from living your life normally. We all get angry, and it's a normal feeling. All this "letting the small things go" cr-p is a little hard to accept when you're bombarded with problems.

I was angry easily too. Physically you are afflicted with headache; spiritually you think that other people are wrong. You should try to get the cure from skillful physicians.

Are you under a lot of stress? I use to snap at my daughter because I had so much other stress. I learned to "let it go" so I could be happy. Our favorite saying now is: let it go. We read online that when you frown you are giving yourself wrinkles when you are older. Now we joke about frowning. You don't win when you get angry over small things. You are only hurting yourself and your relationships. I think finding a reason to stop getting mad over the small stuff is important. My reason is my daughter.

You should give it to God. Every time that you feel yourself getting worked up, try just taking a minute to say a silent prayer asking for God to calm you. I know it's easier said than done, but see if you can try it.
