Mental health crisis caused behaviors from me that led me to be banned from a geographically local community

So I joined a local discord server that was really appealing to me and has IRL meetings. I got emotionally invested in it and really excited to go to the next meeting. BUT they canceled it last minute!!! Since I was super excited I got really mad instead. I tried to recover the lost timeslot by DMing people who were going to attend the meeting if they wanted to hang out. I thoroughly checked if they said "ask for DM" or "DMs open" in their profile and everything and I had the server rules in mind. I made some good connections but no one agreed to hang out. One person specifically clarified that they are only comfortable meeting in the group setting not one on one (I also watched their Drag Show performance on the night before, and we talked on stage after and agreed to meet up at said meeting). I also expressed my emotions in the chat. Several people got concerned about my enraged behavior and reached out to the mods and I got banned as fast as the staff could respond. A big factor in the ban was that the feedback was really delayed; no one told me what I was doing wrong exactly until 2 days after I made several bad social mistakes in the meantime.

Can we talk about the mental health aspect of this please?
