Life has its many caveats and falls, and honestly? As much as it is bad, and wrong, taking your issues and frustrations, especially from things as serious as you described, out on video games is a healthier alternative than many other paths you couldve walked, ive known many a man who took another paths, one whose story sounds much similar to yours (potentially), a past with many struggles, the path he took was a far worse one, causing genuine long lasting harm upon many people who even i knew.
its no excuse to need a coping mechanism when life gets tough, even the toughest of shells will crack with enough hits, and then you need something to glue those pieces back together with, unhealthy or healthy.
If you want to find your way into the light, you must first open your eyes 
Im very glad you have chosen to take a path of enlightenment, rather than that of blind rage

good luck, I remember back in middle school I would game at night when my parents would be sleeping, so I had to learn how to vent frustrations in a way that wasnt toxic, wasnt loud, etc, and it results in me having maybe a “DAMMIT” but nothing beyond that, as continuing to be frustrated afte rthe fact wont acomplish anything.

The game has no substance, their cannot be any goals to have for this game. Any “improvements” made will be rendered useless with the next forced format change that nobody asked for(RQ, 5v5, hitbox changes) and it’s all entirely pointless. You get no real rewards for your time spent, and some people around here think that’s acceptable(it’s still not).
My only goal is to get people to wake up and realize how much of a scam this game is and to get them to admit that they 100% are lying whenever they claim to be having any amount of fun on this game. I know that cannot be true, toxic positivity needs to die in the hole it crawled out of.

Easy to say don’t resent toxic players, so that you don’t resent yourself. Finding the reason to do so ain’t easy since OW2 is a pressure-cooker environment, ain’t easy to find chill in the heat of competition.
And yet finding inner peace in the midst of war, kindness in the midst of cruelty – only difficult paradoxical life choices forge character, everything else are default easy options engineered to nudge us towards where everyone is.
Honestly, I don’t know what to say, except to wish you well when you get to the difficult crossroads of life.

no, you play to live, and with a 50/50 win rate being the norm, how you deal with losses defines whether you’re a toxic person or not, much like real life.

I could tell you that I am lying when I have fun with the game… But that would be a lie. That being said, if anyone is ever going to get me to wake up, it is you, Emberwing.
