Now that I've opened the vortex, can't reel it back in, nor do I want to

I have been, and am still a person, who has a LOT of rage inside...but I've been deluding myself and also using really good ways to avoid feeling into my anger fully. One of the biggest issues for me is that when the rage is unleashed, I cannot curb it, or reel it back in. I don't want to 'reel' anything in; would like to feel through this so I am not constantly hurting my soul. Even seeing how my own actions are affecting my life in a negative way has been incredibly challenging. Sometimes I am soft to this, but most of the time indignant.
The moment I feel triggered by anger, I immediately retaliate somehow. Whether it's telling that person off, yelling, anything really. If I don't, I often fall into suicidal tendencies. I haven't really grasped fully the concept of owning the feeling in order to not project it.
What I am having a VERY hard time doing is processing it in an effective manner, to get under it. I have bashed the pillow, screamed to maximum lung capacity while driving alone in the car (this one is my favorite because I can see that I still turn around in the car expecting someone to try and suppress it), but it doesn't get under. I am really afraid of what's under it, but I am more afraid that I am going to destroy anything that's lovely in my path. I sort of feel like Drew Barrymore in 'Firestarter'.
What I am about to say is very confronting for me, because I was always taught ('family' values) that we shouldn't feel anger, and try to distract myself from anger thoughts. Even verbalizing it confronts my facade, but here goes.
I have a true desire to work through my anger with men, and now that I have allowed God's laws in a more sincere manner, the LoA is ramping up, and I pretty much wanna freak out.
The past two days I have been attracting men who are wanting to give me attention. Men have been honking at me in the street, and one man almost literally fell over trying to get my attention to tell me to 'smile'. I ended up speaking some truth that I didn't want to smile, nor did I feel like I had to avoid my pain. I noticed that even when a male friend reached out to me, all of these instances where based on my desire to get attention. From anyone, really. Seeing it in full force like that didn't help me feel further into my hopelessness grief, but more like a 'matter of fact' that 'I'm a whore', or 'this is how it's always going to be', and in addition, I won't get the one I want.
Last night while driving, I raged in my car, louder and louder, and cried and yelled at God, and this morning, I woke up with more rageful thoughts than I can ever remember having. I woke up with a desire to want to hurt my soulmate in the equivalent manner that I feel I have been hurt. Due to my current rejection by him, and him desiring to pursue another relationship, instead of me focusing on God, and my dad...I go into the fantasies. I was also treated very disrespectful recently by my soulmate and went into a meltdown. In terms of the fantasies, I imagined myself hiring 12 people and going into his house and destroying all his electronics, something he values a lot...to 'make me feel better'. I've imagined in the past, whacking him in the face with a baseball bat...really bad, terrible things. I wake up almost every day with this terrible pit feeling in my stomach, this tightness, and even if I express with my body in bed what I feel, nothing is changing.
I know I wasn't always like this. I remember in junior high when a really nice boy was getting beat up by three kids in school, I ran to get help, and afterwards I hid in the girl's bathroom and sobbed and sobbed for what was happening. I can't bear almost any physical abuse, but when areas circling my demand don't get met, all bets are off. I find more power in the violence than I do in love, and this is SO sad that this is my reality.
This is really a debilitating thing, but it is also something I feel that there's no point trying to hide, because I really want this out of me. I understand that spirits are hooking in now, more than ever because of their fear (and mine) of the separation.
If anyone has ever gone through this emotion and come out the other side, I would really like to how they were able to do it with God, and trust the process.
Thank you.
