How to relax...

Okay i need some help and im only in high school..ill be a senior soon... Sometimes i feel like im bipolar..other times i just feel like i just get mad way too easily and i feel like i have to be mean to people. Well my mother is bipolar and takes medicine to balance herself out. I will list some examples of what bugs me...

When my girlfriend says something immature (she's a lot younger than me) and i ask her why she has to act like she's 7..she yells at me and i start gettin pissed and I'll pout for about 24 hours over something stupid and i feel like i need to be mean to her sometimes for no reason and then when i go to sleep and wake up i feel like a jackass...

When someone says im not doing a good job at something or if i get bad criticism.. i flip out and feel like killing someone. The smallest thing can trigger me off and i can be mad about it all day and i hate that feeling...

I have bad anxiety too, i worry about the dumbest things and would just like to relax...like i worry bout being late..or if i have something to do and i know i should be doing it but i dont... i worry to death about it.

The only time im relaxed is when im with my friends cuz we all laugh about random dumb things and have a good time...and when i wrestle cuz during a wrestling practice i get all my anger out by throwing my teammates around.

But why do i always feel mad about the most pointless stuff i mean i know alot of this doesnt make sense i just get mad so easily and i hate it. What usually happens is i'll get mad at something stupid and start screaming...then ill get mad at myself for being mad then it keeps building and then i end up bein alone to myself for the rest of the day to cool off... Should i see a doctor about my anger or are there any exercises to realxing?

Hi,

I used to be like this too and I went to the doctor about it. She then prescribed me a drug called Lexapro and it helped 'take away' my anger a great deal. So, I suggest that you go to your doctor too to talk about this. If you don't act on it now, it will just get worse and the people who love you will find it a strain to be around you. You have already witnessed signs of this with your girlfriend.
