anger in me

Will you please pray for me to help remove the anger inside of me. i have a terrible temper, and it is ruining my life. i never knew i was such an angry person, but it has consumed me. i want to live in peace. i desire to be slow to anger, but for the past 3 years it has been my first response. i had several things happen to me when i was younger that i need to heal from and move on. please pray for me.
