While you've apologized and were likely forgiven, it would appear that you haven't been forgiven by the most important person: yourself. If you start thinking of who you were before, instead of hating it, look at it as progress. "Wow, I used to respond negatively to this, but now I'm being a better person working to make others feel good!" Use it to show yourself just how far you've come.

You have grown from your bully days and acknowledge the pain you've once inflicted. Recognizing and not repeating, along with stopping current bullies from inflicting the same pain, is enough to not be haunted and know you are living a great, helpful life

Many people do not realize that people that bully are actually hurting as well and also need guidance. It was wonderful of you to apologize. Can you forgive yourself now? This is important. Maybe reflect about the reasons you felt like bullying in the first place and talk with a listener or someone else. When I work with bullying situations, I believe that the bullier and the person that has been bullied both deserve to be heard. Forgive yourself, reflect on why, and talk with someone. Thank you for saying you are sorry. You are so brave and I am just really proud of you. Be proud of yourself and now stand up for others. Great job. Feel free to talk with any listener.

Take a deep breath. The fact that you feel guilty about the situation says a lot. Take the opportunity to move on from the past and focus on the present you.

Don't become a bully ever again. Prevent it from happening again. Make peace with the person/people you've bullied. You also have to make peace with yourself. People make stupid decisions, and we are all human. We've all made mistakes. Try and accept that.

Sounds like you need to learn how to forgive yourself for what you have done and let it go that way.
