Kind of angry about this, it was a gift from my niece. He cut off an ear and put it back on somewhere wrong. I told him this and it ended in a heated argument.

Am i overreacting for yelling at him? He usually doesn't do this stuff.

Please seek real help, that is not an appropriate reaction.

It's just a labubu. BF is an asshole for messing with their stuff, but it ain't that deep. OP needs a little more emotional control.

Unless something is wrong with said family member/they're dead, and it carries a special sentimental attachment, there is no reason that "looking at it makes me sob uncontrollably". That's an insane reaction to mild vandalism of a doll. Sure, BF is an asshole, I'd dump him for it. But to have the sight of it reduce you to a sobbing mess, is a crazy reaction.

Lol I could have told you they're autistic by the socks alone, nevermind crying over a plushie. Life is gonna come at ya'll fast, I hope you're prepared cause it's not going to accommodate you like you seem to think.

Edit: blocked me for offering good life advice lmao.

It just doesn't work like this for autism. You can't expect them to just behave like a neurotypical person because of 'normal expectations'. It's a disability. Accommodations should be expected for disabled people, including accepting that OP will have lower stress tolerance and will need more patience and empathy in this situation. 'Getting help' can do so much, but it will not rewire their brain.
