Other things you mentioned though, the anger, agitation, and feeling ways you have not since a child, brought back old memories.
Years and years ago, there was a book out, titled 'Passages." I am not sure, but it might have been written by Gail Sheehy. I knew several people who had reached their late twenties and were having difficulties in many areas, particularly in areas connected with old problems they thought that they had long resolved. They realized what was going on in their minds after reading the book and took steps to correct it.
According to the book [which I just skimmed through for half an hour about 40 years ago] people with unresolved issues that they thought they had dealt with, but hadn't, tend to reach their late twenties and suddenly have a resurfacing of the unresolved conflicts.
As I mentioned, I never actually studied the book, and this was a looooong time ago, but do you think that this could possibly be the problem?
It very well could be. Maybe I didn't improve as much as I thought I had. I did still live with my parents until I was 26 and it was afterward I started running into more problems. I think in some way, the improvement could just be attributed to keeping myself sheltered, cloistered, and not exposing myself to a lot of stress, but with some of the support coming off I might be having more trouble.
