Introduction and fear about my child

Hi everyone, this is kavita from Pune. I am new to this forum so don't know what to say and how to start. I am kind of scared and hesitant to talk about my fear as a parent towards my child. She is 9 years old and has been showing anger issues, self doubt, low self esteem, aggression. She has had a disturbed childhood. From having seen us parent fight, to fights between mom in law and me, additive father who drinks and smokes a lot, to me managing everything in the house without any help. Result in my anger issues ,yelling on her for her mistakes, unable to control my emotions. With me and my husband both having a disturbed childhood. 

I fear i am doing the same to my child and passing it to my child and making her face the same what u faced as a child.

How do I put an end to this vicious circle and give my child a childhood she deserves. 

I love her from all my heart and soul but with all this happening i find it difficult to manage her expectations as a child towards me as a parent .

Please help
