Violence isn't acceptable so I think it would be a really good idea to go see a psychologist. If you're effecting other people this strongly it should be checked out just incase.
It could just be the way you are and that's fine. I guess it depends how serious it is and if it's effecting other people.
Are you always fighting with other people or is it only sometimes?

I agree that seeing someone to find out what is wrong is a good idea. Maybe you are reacting to stress and anger in your life you have not yet figured out? If you take meds, maybe they need to be adjusted a little?
It would be good to write a journal, if you can, and note when it happens and why. There might be an issue that makes you react very strongly, or something that triggers you. It could also be a med reaction, or reaction to alcohol or caffeine...some folks even act that way when they are around certain foods, I have heard. (I don't know how valid that is, but I am putting it out there as a possibility because friends of mine have thought it helped them.)
When a psychiatrist or therapist sounds like a threat, it makes you not want to go. But sometimes they really help. Maybe you would feel better if you chose to go, instead of feeling like someone made you. Something is obviously upsetting you, and they might be able to help you figure it out so you can take care of it.
I hope you find a solution soon!

Great post Emmie.
It might be just some issues dealing with anger. Going to see someone to talk about it could help a lot.
Are you an angry person?
It could be lots of reasons; anger, impulse control, innability to control stress, anxiety. Lots of people on here mention the need for some add/adhd people needing or wanting to 'create stress' (i'm not sure i worded that correctly.)
I fly off the handle and get quite violent and crazy sometimes, but only with certain people and in certain situations - for example i feel pretty out of control when it happens but i would never do it at work, so i know i have some control over it. I think for me personally its about lots of anger and an inability to deal with that, maybe a level of immaturity in dealing with stress, or just not having those skills.
Also i hate to bring up the hormone card (but will anyway it seems!:confused:) it took me ages to realise i have a real problem with pmt - i'm always so moody it was hard to see any pattern at all, but honestly i can get really, really messy at that time. Sometimes it feels like i'm literally going out of my mind and i get extremely emotional about things i shouldn't, or very depressed or angry.
Do you have any thoughts yourself about why this happens to you?
