Answer 2

I am assuming you are thinking that maybe your anger problems and immaturity are because your a teenager, since you wrote ..."but I'm a teenager." If you want to mature you have to make the decision not to act immature. Think of the last time you were a jerk. Why were you doing it? It is not because you were a teenager.

I know adults that are jerks and it has nothing to do with age.
It has to do with choices. You are kind or your not.

I think your anger and being a jerk are related but only you know why. Only you know what it is that makes you feel angry. Once you admit to yourself where the anger comes from then it is time to decide how to direct that anger in a better way. Sometimes anger comes from places we are not aware of. Someone says something that rubs us the wrong way or sometimes we feel misunderstood. There are even times when we wake up in the morning and feel mad at the world but can't figure out why. Feeling anger is o.k. it is what we decide to do with those feelings that matters. This answer may seem lengthy but I hope you read the whole thing. Redirecting your anger doesn't mean you are denying your anger or keeping it all locked up inside it means you are acknowledging your anger and making a more "mature" choice on what to do with it and that means not being a jerk.

Answer 3

just act in a way that you will look back on and be like, oh wow i was a role model/good student/nice guy in high school..that's saying more than other people can. Also girls haate jerks and people with anger problems so if you ever want a girlfriend maturity is definately the route to take. Be aware of being polite- that's the first step to maturity..and don't make lame dirty jokes

Answer 4

The fact that you are questioning your maturity is a good sign that you are becoming more mature. Keep questioning things in life and seeking knowledge. You're on the right path.

As far as anger, just tell yourself when you feel really angry not to say or do anything. Because you know you will regret it later. When the emotions have subsided, then take action if it still seems necessary. When I started following this rule, I was able to control my anger much better, and it really improved my life.

Answer 5

The answer is simple, let time do it's job, and just b/c your a jerk and you have anger problems doesn't necessarily mean that your immature. Lots of "mature" people have those problems.

Answer 6

Hey, strange fact, but mature people get angry and act like jerks too.

Your problem isn't immaturity, but when you feel anger, see what happens when you bring your full awareness to it.

Instead of acting for yourself, act for others' sake, and then the jerk will be lost in oblivion.

Answer 7

well there's the 1st step to maturing, admitting that you're a jerk with anger problems, but being mature isn't about being nice all the time, sometimes mature people have to be jerks too, just think twice before you do/say something.

Answer 8

It'll happen. One day. You'll change, but only along the scope of your own body. People change at different times, and they change differently, too.
If you want to control your anger, talk to someone who will listen and help you get rid of anger. What happens sometimes is that you think your angry about something but when you talk it out you realize that it was an infatuation(something that doesnt last long)
