The fact that you are worried sick and posting here says you are convicted.
So what will you do with this conviction? Allow Satan to taunt you with it, or believe God?
God forgives us more than we should or could ever hope to be forgiven. The Bible is full of people who betrayed God, and God forgave them. I was just reading about Samson and Delilah, the prostitute. She wheedled the secret of his strength out of him, and he was blinded by the Philistines and they were going to kill him.
Instead, he prayed and God restored his strength, he collapsed the building by the power of God, and "killed 3000, more in his death than in his life." He was dedicated to God from his mother's womb, but certainly had a lot of ups and downs.
My suggestion is to read the Psalms. Learn about real people who hurt and make mistakes. And learn about the glory of God. The fact is, God is sovereign and in control. You are not! Your puny rebellion means nothing to the living God, except that you need to repent, and turn from your sins.
Go from conviction to repentance. God will not cast you out, if you truly humble yourself before him. And then, follow him!

What you did in the hour and power of darkness is not the sin that can't be forgiven.
On the night of His betrayal, Jesus told His disciples, "all of you will reject me this night," Later, before they did He said, "Watch and pray that you enter not into temptation, the spirit is willing but the flesh is weak." You behaved like His disciples, like Peter denying Him and face that your not able to remain in prayer without the help of the Holy Spirit and would end up rejecting Him. The grief you have is of the same kind as Peter and you must be a natural leader personality. The sin that can't be forgiven, continuing, to be filled with violence so that there is no room for Love of God. Evidenced by unable to forgive "For if you forgive not neither will your father in heaven forgive you. Think of it this way, you have a son who sais to you what you said to God, and then he is sorry, do you forgive Him. There is a huge difference between an outburst of anger sinning with your tongue and being filled with violence in the example of Hitler; one of his followers, met Corrie ten boom after the war, she remembered Him as one of the most cruel officers; he asked her to forgive Him, as he reached out to shake her hand, this was after her preaching on forgiveness, she could not but stretched out her hand towards His and was empowered by the Holy Spirit to forgive Him. Rest assured that your forgiven and if you have trouble with unresolved anger continue to admit it and ask for prayer. Judas is the example of rejecting the Holy Ghost to maintain His identity as a thief: referred as the son of perdition, later in prophesy this is referred as later as the man of sin, continuing to compromise with the sinful nature until taken out of the Way. The Lord is patient with us and not willing that any should continue to do so. Also the Lord has been patient with me that's why reassure you.

You do error if you think Jesus forgives those who are NOT TRULY sorry for their sins. Repentance is granted to those who have a Godly sorrow for their sins, not to those who continue to live in them.
Heb 10:26 For if we sin willfully after that we have received the knowledge of the truth, there remaineth no more sacrifice for sins,
Those who continue to knowingly and willingly commit sins take thought that Jesus continues to offer sacrifice for their sins, which is CONTRARY to this Inspired by God, Holy verse in Scriptures. If Jesus is your Lord, you will obey Jesus. is satan is your lord you will obey satan and continue to live in sins, without ever ceasing from them.
Those who commit a sin and are Truly Sorry for that sin, will pray to the God saying "God please forgive me, I will try to never do that sin ever again, in Jesus Name, amen" But the Typical Christians that live in the last days will pray thus "God please forgive me of my sins today, in Jesus Name, amen" KNOWING full well they continue to do those sins over and over and over and over and over and over and over again till they die or Christ comes back. These are NOT sorry for those sins, but LOVE to live in them.
