I think part of the problem is you may tend to hold onto anger and other emotions for too long without an outlet. Then they surprise you when they break loose. The episode you seem to have had and the emotions that you feel including the hatred and self condemnation are possibly things that you’ve been hanging onto that you shouldn’t. The other commenter mentioned using a local/offline chat bot to talk to ans that may be beneficial just because it’s a way to express your emotions and let them out in a more healthy way. I use journals for this purpose and always have. It helps me to write things out. This way things don’t get ahead of me as often (though it still happens). You’re not a bad person just because you had a meltdown. Self forgiveness is important and I hope you can work towards that.
