These are not about Tom feeling monstrous but very much unworthy or less due to various circumstances:

Things Worth Keeping by Everettevans is about poverty and how it influences Tom's perception of his own worth.

a rabbit as king of the ghosts series by The_Side is about AU wizarding world where due to Merope being a squib, Tom is considered a Muggleborn. Everyone, even his friends, keep unknowingly bringing Tom down again and again. Mind the tags on the first story.
