I’m so sorry you’re going through this!
Do you think before you get to the point of physical violence you can leave the room and come back when you’re ready and able to have a conversation? It’s better to have someone upset with you for walking away than it is to potentially get into serious trouble for being violent.
My favorite skill that may help in this area is STOP.
S - STOP. Don’t use a muscle.
T - Take a step back. Take a deep breath.
O - Observe the situation. What’s happening with you, other people, and the environment?
P - Proceed mindfully with your goals in mind.
I think a DBT program could really help you with impulse control and similar issues if there’s one around for minors.

You need to get up, gotta keep your head up
Look at the people all around you
The way you feel is something everybody goes through
