Hi please may I have a PPP?

Hi everyone, I’m looking for some toddler tantrum advice, I have a 5 year old and I have been lucky he’s always been very well behaved, but I am now struggling to find coping mechanisms With my two year old son. I am struggling hugely with my mental health at the moment so I know this can make the General day harder for me and my toddler but anyway he does things that I have a bit of concern for, for example he shows signs of OCD like flushing the toilet 3 times, closing all doors behind himself, picking up minimal dirt like hair or fluff off the floor, also having to have drinks in certain cups/bottles and food prepared in a certain way otherwise we go into full meltdown mode, and everything I try to distract him doesn’t work, he can become inconsolable for a good 20 minutes Iv tried everything from picking him up to letting him self soothe which leads to him self harming (smacking his head off walls, scratching himself ). He does a lot of scratching, kicking , biting all the usual tantrum stuff but usually for no reason. I have tried so many different things but I’m really struggling I have booked to see the health visitor but that’s not until the 24th, so I suppose I’m looking for some advice, is this normal behaviour for a two year old? I feel like such a failure having to ask but I am really struggling now and desperate for some fresh ideas to try. Please no bashing thank you xxx
