I remember another time I couldn't take it and I got so angry that I screamed (I was near a beach and it was empty) and started hitting myself with a branch. I got a bruise for that.

here where I live and work hitting yourself and screaming is called performing self injury acts. self injuring your self, berating your self, attacking your self.
a mental breakdown here where I live and work is where someone cant stop crying, shaking, depressed, avoiding others, talking incoherently, sometimes catatonic,
self injury behaviors can be part of the symptoms of any mental disorder so I suggest contacting your treatment providers and letting them know whats happening. there are antidepressants and antianxiety meds that can help with this.
