I do try to pray, but it's difficult. I need something more that I guess puts thing in perspective a little better and calms me down. I'm getting tired of listening to Edelweiss and Mary Poppins to try to calm myself down 
I need something from the Bible in some way.

Selenah: It is most likely generational anger that came to you through your bloodline. This can be broken off. Do some investigative research and find out if any of your parents, grandparents, great-grandparents or even further back had issues with anger. Also consider that if your mom got severely angry with you at some point when you were young, that this could also open the door to an influence of anger ...yes a demon. If you want, I will lead you through breaking it off of your life and getting rid of the anger once and for all. Let me know.

I don't know a whole lot about the whole generational curses thing so I'm kind of cautious about that. Could you maybe show me some Bible verses to support it?
As far as anger in my family....I'm not really sure. My dad seems kind of angry at the world, but I think that's mostly just stress from work and stuff. My mom has always had times when she would be really angry, but what mom hasn't? I do remember being a really little kid and she would make me so angry that I would say and wish these horrible things about her, but then I've always had a vivid memory from when I was very young so idk.... It's like part of me hates her but at the same time I want to cry because I don't want to hurt her.

Mine are all across the British Isles, Germany, and Switzerland. My great Aunt and Uncle went to Switzerland a few years ago and visited some distant relatives. The Swiss side of my family hasn't been in America too terribly long. It's either my great grandfather or 2x great grandfather who came over from Switzerland.

I have some bible verses to refute generational curses but doubt you will get any to support them....
Jeremiah 31:29-31
King James Version (KJV)
29In those days they shall say no more, The fathers have eaten a sour grape, and the children's teeth are set on edge.
30But every one shall die for his own iniquity: every man that eateth the sour grape, his teeth shall be set on edge.
31Behold, the days come, saith the LORD, that I will make a new covenant with the house of Israel, and with the house of Judah:
Jesus made the NEW Covenant and God ordains that everyone die for their own iniquities not for their parents. here is another one ....
Ezekiel 18
1The word of the LORD came unto me again, saying,
2What mean ye, that ye use this proverb concerning the land of Israel, saying, The fathers have eaten sour grapes, and the children's teeth are set on edge?
3As I live, saith the Lord GOD, ye shall not have occasion any more to use this proverb in Israel.
4Behold, all souls are mine; as the soul of the father, so also the soul of the son is mine: the soul that sinneth, it shall die.
5But if a man be just, and do that which is lawful and right,
9Hath walked in my statutes, and hath kept my judgments, to deal truly; he is just, he shall surely live, saith the Lord GOD.
10If he beget a son that is a robber, a shedder of blood, and that doeth the like to any one of these things,13Hath given forth upon usury, and hath taken increase: shall he then live? he shall not live: he hath done all these abominations; he shall surely die; his blood shall be upon him.
13Hath given forth upon usury, and hath taken increase: shall he then live? he shall not live: he hath done all these abominations; he shall surely die; his blood shall be upon him.
17That hath taken off his hand from the poor, that hath not received usury nor increase, hath executed my judgments, hath walked in my statutes; he shall not die for the iniquity of his father, he shall surely live.
18As for his father, because he cruelly oppressed, spoiled his brother by violence, and did that which is not good among his people, lo, even he shall die in his iniquity.
no generational curse. the only curse is the curse of sin and iniquity. You do not have demons.
you have issues with the flesh and with your parents but not supernatural ones. God has given you everything you need to deal with it. Pray and study and allow God to teach you and guide you on what to do with your issues and your anger. TRUST in GOD.
here are some bible verses since your original post asked for them:
James 1:5
If any of you lack wisdom, let him ask of God, that giveth to all men liberally, and upbraideth not; and it shall be given him.
Ephesians 4:26-27
King James Version (KJV).
26Be ye angry, and sin not: let not the sun go down upon your wrath:
27Neither give place to the devil
the last part does not mean you have some demon of anger.
it means you need to get rid of the lies and the anger and the unforgivness in your heart and allow God to work in you. You need to overcome your flesh and take captive every thought that wars against the knowledge of God.
The best way to do that is to pray and ask God why you are angry, why your parents are not living in the joy and peace God intended for them to have? How you can bring comfort and love and forgiveness for yourself and for your family. what you can do to help heal them. Then pray and listen and learn whatever you can by reading the Bible and talking to people and comforting others as they help comfort and edify you.
We all have bad days and get discouraged but we have to have Faith that God will make all things work for our good and endure and be diligent about learning God's will and showing His love to others because of His great love for us.

your in my prayers lil sis.
remember this life is not forever and your circumstances will change when you turn 18 and can live on your own. Just use this time to learn as much as you can and get a firm foundation to build the rest of your life upon. Stay grounded in God's truth and if you get a chance study abroad and see the rest of the world.
Jeremiah 31:29-31
King James Version (KJV)
29In those days they shall say no more, The fathers have eaten a sour grape, and the children's teeth are set on edge.
30But every one shall die for his own iniquity: every man that eateth the sour grape, his teeth shall be set on edge.

I've read through this whole thread and I have a couple of questions for you: What did your mother do when you were a little girl to make you so angry? Or what didn't she do that she should have?
So your Dad was angry all the time and that must have influenced your Mom's attitude. Was there something your Mom should have done about your father's anger or anything that he did?
My own father had a terrible temper and my mother didn't do anything about it. When I was about 10 years old my mother had an affair and my parents separated for a time but then came back together. I was heavier than my siblings from birth and on. Both of my parents were constantly on my size my whole life. Pick, pick, pick.
Did anything like that happen to you? As I became an adult I wanted to have adult memories of my childhood, not just the hurt. So I talked to my parents separately. Turns out my Dad was terrified all the time that he would be able to support his family and that everything would fall apart and slip through his fingers. That's a heavy fear to carry. My mother pretty much preferred to leave the past where it was and just say that God has forgiven her. Talking with my Dad helped so much. My mother, not so much.
I was just wondering if you have had any type of this in your life that fuels your anger.
