Yeah therapy can help, definitely consider it.

But.. hey, you should really think about who you are. I mean something happened to you to piss you off so much in your childhood. Maybe it was your parents.. maybe it was your friends... but someone hurt you so bad that you feel you need to hurt others. Just find out what it is that hurt you so bad that you feel the need to hurt other people. That's the key to ridding yourself of this anger. Anger is simply Fear announced. Meaning something inside of you you are scared of to death, you are annoucing it loud and clear as you become agressive. So instead of going around shouting your fear.. why not just get rid of it?

Most definitely stress has an impact on health. A very serious one.. its not a myth but a very much confirmed scientific fact. The body when put under extended periods of stress will begin to break down. Your heart can only take so much... your mind can only take so much. Just like any machine... if you work it too hard, it's going to break. I'm not saying your going to break any time soon.. but stress will take its toll on you eventually. It will take a toll on how you look on the inside and the outside. It's not worth it to stress over any problem.

Think about it this way. You stress about school / tests , grades, futures. But do you need to do any of it? I know you are saying.. YES I need to do these things. But who do you need to do them for? For teachers, parents..? I mean what good is it to do these things for other people. You should be doing them for yourself. I know it's hard to realize this now.. but later on you will see that. If your parents are stressing you out about your grades then you need to let them know that it is hurting you. You need to let others know it. What good does it having someone yell in your ear "Do your homework!". Never did me any good. In fact, I think it made me procrastinate on it even further. You have to let people know that you are tired of being hurt, and you really need their support. It's hard to speak up and be the adult, when adults act like children and yell at you for stupid reasons. Sometimes you just need to take a break and get away instead of getting angry yourself. If you beat someone over the head, they are only going to turn around and beat you back. Violence is a vicious cycle. It's one thing to do it as a sport, it's another to incorporate it into your everyday life. Just remember.. anger, is fear announced.

Sure it can. How about high blood pressure, IBS, migraines, ulcers, bleeding ulcers, It can even lead to drug usage, alcohol usage, (to escape from the problem) Find a way to take your aggression out without hurting someone. Exercise is a good one. Therapy is also a good one. Anything that will keep you in check. Even if it means just walking away from the situation. At least you've noticed the problem and now can deal with it. Good Luck!
