Well by definition it's harder to come back from that edge. The whole point of regular exercise, meditation, and reflection is to not get there in the first place.

Stop trying to fix the symptoms, fix the cause. Why does work of all things make you this angry? Is it a lack of control? Would you be happier running things or doing consulting? Is it the project(s)? People/a particular person?

Stop trying to get rid of the cough and start trying to get rid of the illness. It is not normal to get so angry at work that you bring it home.

Very true. I would also add therapy. There is no way for "work" to get you this mad this often. The things that are making you angry at work are triggering deeper and more personal issues. Usually when I am angry, the root is a sense of guilt about something else.
