The problem is you don't think it's you. If it isn't you, you can't really hold yourself responsible.

It is you. You are responsible. You're the only one in control of yourself.

Ultimately, it's entirely up to you on whether you want to overcome this or not. No one else can do it for you.

OP: Given your talents, situation, and outlook, you probably ought to consider involving people in your anger management research who are closer to you than anyone on this forum is, but it's cool to see you're having luck so far, and I've found these responses really interesting.

Otherwise, a few more random thoughts: Small behavioral changes sometimes help. If you intentionally use a bad/weird/cheesy strategy (with a high probability of losing), you can get practice with weird strategic puzzles and calmly typing GG with "low-stakes" situations. Or you might have some luck saying something out loud when a game seems out of control ("I don't know how to respond to this tactic, maybe I'll find out afterwards").

Rage comes cause people can't accept the defeat. You are american (or european) and you have to win, to be the best. It comes from culture, from education. It's a conditionned behavior you can't think in an otherwise way.
But you can take back the control of your mind, of yourself, you can practice self control. Try meditation, yoga, self improvment.

Read this similar thing : http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=263185 It's not a recent topic but i never forget it.

And don't forget : If you win it's because your oppenent was pretty bad and if you loose it's because you're simply bad but you have learn something for the next match.
Ladder is a way to get some points. These points allows you to play with good players. It's a chance to improve yourself, to improve your gamesense and your mechanics.
Dont consider the ladder like a test. Nobody will judge you right now for your game.
Try to play some online tournaments and you will see that ladder is just a training field, it's nothing.

Just let your rage goes on.
Rage is not a problem. Rage is driving human being since he exists.

Just don t let it affect ur personnal life, Rage is the key.

I will rage for ever and i like it.

EDIT : My personnal experience :

I am a very calm person, the type of guy who thinks, then acts, but in SC2 i m the strictly opposite.
What i do when i rage : I just insult my opponent in a really really horrible way till i get quiet again.
Just insult them, their family, their wife, mom and sons, and then, u will get back to ur normal stand.

The problem is the bans from blizzard, but don't worry, never more than a week.
