I am a teenager myself and have a younger sister, and i want my peace and independence. I am usually a pretty laid back quiet person, and my sister is the exact opposite; She is loud and loves attention. So when i want it quiet and she is being obnoxious i have these anxiety attacks and end up agressivly screaming at her, and i always feel bad after i do it because i know that i have no right to yell at her, but i feel that i was raised that way. My parrents are divorced right now, and when they were married they would fight all the time. It was non stop arguing in my families household. My dad would become very anrgy very easily, and would end up being very agressive and would scream and yell at me for long periods of time about the most rediculous things. I remember one time he grounded me for not putting my gloves on before i walked out the door, or not getting up fast enough for him, or for spitting outside. He would pick me up while he was screaming at me, take me upstairs, set me on my parrents bed, and would shout at me for about and hour at a time. I know that he was treated like that as a child, but I don't want to end up that way. I feel like I am carrying a bad example down the family even further, and would like some advise on how I can control my anger because now some my close friends have noticed it and I want to make it better. Another reason I may feel like this is that I am insecure about myself. I am a senior in high school now and I am only 115 lbs. I come from a family of short skinny people, and they are all hard asses, and i dont know if they all feel the same way i do. But too many people feel that they should take their agression out on me because they feel that i am a defensless little bitch, and i guess thats another reason why i am so pissed off all the time. I joined the wrestling team back in 8th grade to try and beef up a little bit, and it has helped some, but I just need some other advise on how i can control my anger so i dont resolve my problems in such a negative way like every one else in my family.
