Anger is an emotion that results because of bottled up energy. You bottle energy up by not expressing yourself.My suggestion is that you first find the source. What is driving you to feel angry. Don't say you don't know because anger doesn't just magically happen. This means you need to search yourself, your life, indeed your diet, you spirituallity. Litterally make a list (call it a shit list (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif) ) and think of ways you can deal with whatever you put down. Perhaps something there is something environmental in your life that is making you upset. Perhaps a relationship is in a rut. Maybe school/work has you overly stressed. You could even be sexually fruastrated. Really its up to you to figure it out. If your life is peachy perfect then the cause could be do to your diet, as esoterica suggests, you could have a chemical imballance which at your age is should not be over looked as a cause.

Regardless the cause of the build up energy the solution is to find an appropriate out let. If your problem rests in a relationship you need to get with that person(s) and discuss whats going on. If thats not possible then you need to vent. Try boxing or martial arts. Run a mile every day. Have sex - with protection, shoot a up a bunch a bad guys in a video game, try shooting for real (using responsibility of course, like at say a shooting range), even punch a pillow. Doesn't matter how you vent your pent up energy.

If the source of the anger is from a chemical imbalance I would avoid drugs. Self medication or perscribed. Drugs used for the purpose of treating such states of mind that are really more annoying than all consuming only inhibit the release of the energy. Its like you have an unsightly rash on your left arm so you tie it behind your back so you don't have to look at it. The rash is "invisible" and you still have your trusty right arm that you use most of the time anyways. But by tying your arm you limmit your potential ability. Drugs to control behavior do the same thing. Now of course if your state of mind is all consuming and you are serious about hurting yourself or someone then you need to get to a doctor and feel out the questionaire, fill it out honestly, then he'll perscribe you the appropriate drugs. If you don't have insurance ask for the generic form at the drug store.
