I wouldn't focus on change as much as acknowledgement of your triggers. Once you can identify the source of the upset you can better work through it. Our loved ones often feel it more because we feel comfortable around them and don't hold back. But they are the ones who matter, not the superficial friendships that add nothing to your quality of life. As long as you apologize and aren't just a dick because someone else did something that pissed you off. I have a coworker that bears the brunt of my anger often. It use to sound like I was angry with him but I make a point to let him know I am just venting and I know it isn't his fault and he is likely just as annoyed as I am, and much more quiet about it. Having someone who allows you too vent is a good person to have in your life.
Is it normal that I take my aggression out on those closest to me?
