Every single winter, I get really mad at everything. I wanna smash stuff, and I listen to super heavy metal. Every little thing aggrevates me. Am I just mentally challenged? HELP!

Sometimes the things we do has a direct relationship to our behaviour. It is the environment.
You may enjoy heavy metal. But as an experiment, stop it for the next month. Just see if this has anything to do with the way you feel.
Put it this way - you are mad at things over which you have absolutely no control. Like winter. Like traffic jam. If you are stuck, you are stuck. There is nothing in the world you can do. Listening to heavy metal has something to do with it? It helps to perpetuate aggressiveness in you?
Perhaps you are type 'A" personality. Every little thing is a trigger for them. They have short fuse.
Knowing it is the first step towards correcting it. If you let this continue you could get hypertension (high blood pressure) and lead to further complications - also it can affect your behaviour with other people, you job etc....
At least you have recognized it. That is half the battle. Now the other half to win this battle is upto you.

You probably have SAD = Seasonal Affective Disorder. I don't get quite as upset as you but the days are shorter in the winter, so more people stay inside and aren't exposed to much sunlight. Going for a walk or something, for at least a half an hour each day may improve your mood somewhat. We actually get vitamins from the sun exposure, and having less of it will definitely affect your moods.

Go to a lighting store and tell them your problem. You've got SADD (sunlight deficiency). They can fix you up with a full-spectrum lamp. Or, go to a tanning salon. Spend some time every day by a "grow-lamp." Or, sit by a sunny window for at the very least, fifteen minutes a day. When I moved from Florida to Michigan for school I got Depressed in the winter!

Seasonal depression is now a clinically recognized psychological problem; less sun in the winter deprives your body of vitamins it usually gets from the sunlight, and it makes your biological clock's pattern harder to follow, which means your sleep will probably be less regular hence irritability all around. It is treatable so seeing someone might be a good idea just in case.

I absolutely agree with the other Answerer. This is a condition which probably affects more people than you realize.
If this is truly what you are suffering from, I would not call yourself mentally challenged. Whether it's more than SAD or not, you should still talk to a medical professional about your symptoms and possible treatment. See the website below.

And good luck!

Man I get depressed every winter as well. When the sun starts to come out, I feel a bit more better but when it gets cloudy again, then i get depressed. You just need to seek help during this type of season.

no longer purely will it fee extra, hundreds of folk artwork in the coal marketplace. extra jobs long previous, for what? i've got self belief some thing needs to be achieved to bathe it up, and in line with danger gradually cut back it, yet those human beings basically choose for it long previous. it relatively is nuts! same with oil, the type you going to tug eighty,000 pounds down the line with a battery or sunlight powered motor vehicle. Nuts! human beings say they're keen to pay, properly this is not any longer purely your bill. each and every producer makes use of electricity too, lots extra then you definately do. the fee to them will might desire to be exceeded directly to you. All this fee, cap and commerce, wellness care, unemployment, vast extensive government employment, spending like loopy. are you able to no longer see how loopy it relatively is?
