I just have-what I think: "1. do you a think a therapist is required? 2. do you want to find why you have this pattern of behavior? 3. what would the best way to work at this? for example, would distracting type of activities help you when you feel triggered to start the angry thing?"
Sorry I am asking more questions than giving you answers, but you have insight into what you have talked about and are concerned enough to post your thoughts. So, I feel asking a few questions would help to eventually find a way that you will be more satisfied with yourself-with who you are.

Sorry, I usually say any questions are welcome, I must have forgotten this time. Let me answer your questions
I've tried therapists before, I just left frustrated each time. Like I felt I was wasting their time, or that they thought I was lying and they couldn't accomplish anything for me. Just so many different thoughts that told me to leave the therapist. While I think that would be most helpful, I do have that history of running, and I don't have money.
I want mostly to solve this pattern of behavior. A name for it would be nice, would give it explanation, but now it's just getting so intense that I'm losing everyone, and if I let it get worse I truly will be alone for good, and that will only be my fault (plus this behavior seems to make it hard to hold a job without people thinking bad of me and wanting me fired).
Best way to work at this? Distracting it doesn't help, as the issue will still be there next time. Just trying to find solutions to it all. I've tried distracting myself, I've tried calming myself down, to try to see reason, I've tried a therapist, none of it has worked as I don't know the exact root of the issue, and I don't know more effective ways of controlling it.
Ask whatever questions you may have (this applies to everyone that may respond).
