This : This is not a normal reaction to stress. You should be evaluated by a mental health professional right away. You could be dealing with a psychiatric disorder. If you ever feel like hurting yourself or anyone else go to the emergency room or call 911. Please seek help soon.

Overly reactive.: I would recommend an evaluation by a clinical psychologist or a psychiatrist. It sounds you emotions are poorly regulated.
