I realise that I've caused my father an incredible amount

>How do I stop feeling guilty about the pain I've caused him?

You don't. Guilt is a recognition of some wrongdoing on your part and feeling guilty helps pave the way to becoming a better person.

That said, just because you feel guilty, it does not mean you need to allow a toxic person into your life. Don't let guilt get in the way of you doing what's right for you.

Well maybe you can try being honest for once, tell him you are sorry that you behaved like you did and make it up for him somehow.

yeah you stop feeling guilty by not being a fucking prick

as long as he acts decent, start doing the same how is this a difficult concept

He's still an angry/aggressive person who is physically and verbally abusive

I know he can't help himself and feels bad about it afterwards, and I feel bad about that, but I don't know how to be normal with him

Im in the same situation and the guilt is giving me massive anxiety like suddenly ALL of my body tense up amd shaking anxiety.
I said some things that have really hurt his feelings during his period of adjustment as an immigrant into the country i am in. He was getting mad at mom and i called him an asshole (and similar stuff more or less) and it has really hurt him, it made him think that i want him to leave the country hurt but i don't actually and was just mad at him for being mean to mom. I want to apologize but the wound is dealt. He doesnt deserve his own son brining him down in a new country when he had it going good back home :( i messed up guys and im really the asshole here. Wtf do i do guys welp.
