Answers:

It's very brave of you to admit that you have a problem. And, getting help sooner than later will make your life easier in the long run.

To get help, you will need to call a psychiatrist for an evaluation. They will ask questions and determine - emotionally - what seems to be going on with you.

Some teens struggle with anger simply because they are growing up and dealing with lots of complex relationships and feelings. Other times, teens struggling with anger are suffering with a mental illness (like bi-polar disorder).

If you do have a mental illness, there are medications that can help. It can take a long time to find just the right medicine. So, if you do have a mental illness and need medication - please be patient.

Writing in a journal (as silly as it might sound) might help you to sort out some of your feelings and experiences.

Since your family is aware of your anger, they will probably be relieved when you tell them that you would like to meet with a psychiatrist for an evaluation. Counseling will also help - and, it is likely that the counselor will want your family to be involved in some sessions.

You have so much life ahead of you. You are making a very important step in addressing your anger. I hope your better days come quickly.
