ALSO TO ADD:

I have alot of violent fantasies about people i dont like, involving guns / knifes and i can easily build myself up into a rage, i also seem to enjoy violence towards people i dislike or have done something towards me.

Its normal to have thoughts of violence towards people that have done you wrong.What you must understand is violence is going to accomplish nothing more then getting you into trouble.Never act on your thoughts of violence with knifes and guns.As far as a fist fight once in awhile i dont see a problem with that if you need to defend yourself.You remember what just happened at Virginia Tech?These are the types of things that have got to stop.If you ever have those types of thoughts seek some help,never act upon them.

sounds a little more intense than normal, see a psychiarist. Meds work wonders for rage.

me too! we should do stuff together

sounds like me i love being like this cause i will be the next person to be on the news i think you will have to join me when i doit

Yeah, you're normal. Having hatred like that bottled up inside isn't healthy though. But what sets you apart from the prison population is the fact that you haven't acted on your anger (well, have you??). We all have fantasies about beating people up and getting revange. Extreme excerise helps me control my thoughts. Also, being around people who aren't out to screw you over too helps. I have violent thoughts all the time about people who have hurt me, or just evil people in general, and I seem to force myself not to care anymore...kind of like turning off my emotions.

It sounds like you have some issues that need resolving. If you have had a violent upbringing then it is normal that you do not have alternative coping strategies for dealing with your frustrations.

I would recommend that you take up some kind of hobby of sport to channel this energy into a more constructive way.
Avoid being bored. Boredom is a big trigger factor for anger. I know it is for me.

I have my coping strategies which include photography, other creative activities, and going out dancing. If I do not engage in these activities I can get very angry and frustrated and take it out on the wrong person.

Anger is a normal human emotion. You are human. You feel anger. However its how we manage this emotion which is important.

Someone mentioned medication; yes it can be helpful. However it is not the be-all-and-end-all. You need to look at alternative methods of dealing with it, as the medication will only take the edge off things - it will not help the underlying cause. But saying that at times it can make coping with the underlying cause a bit easier.

* that was meant to say 'hobby OR sport'

It is a bit of a pet peeve of mine when people do that. Probably cause I'm obsessed with q tips so I don't see why people would use anything else when q tips clearly fit the purpose.

Just don't do it in front of a girl you like (:

Rage and anger are usually feelings that are used to mask other feelings. Getting in touch with what's really going on would be a good start. Everyone will have thoughts of violence from time to time it seems you are concerned about it though so I would suggest getting some professional help. Have constant feelings of anger and pent up aggression is a time bomb waiting to happen. Eventually something will have to happen, meaning you could have a major blow up and do something you don't want to or you can actually get physically ill. Check out cortisol and how the hormone can cause early death. Please get help.

Most likely hormonal imbalance.

You may have too much estrogen.
This is a female hormone, but excessive amounts in males causes certain types of "Rage".

Find something to balance this out.
Really physical work helps.

You have a lot of friends because of you charming and charasmatic ways, it is unlikely you are a psychopath, but you may still show characteristics of one, I would go to a psychologist just in case. Did you have a bad childhood?
