I'm glad you worked it out with your therapist. It sounds like that was the right thing to do.
And don't feel bad for yelling at him. Therapists are trained to deal with clients' anger, to make it productive. You are angry for good reasons, and you need a safe place and person to process it. Your therapist can be that person. For most of my life I have been a very angry person, too. You should hear the things I've said to my therapist! I yelled at her nonstop for over two years. Including several "f**ck yous". And she seems to have forgiven me. Or at least puts up a good front.
And Dinah is right. You're not doomed, and get rid of those books that tell you you are.
