There is a large gap between the proficient end user, which is what it sounds like you are, and an IT professional. Another thing working against you is many employers use a 4yr degree as the basic qualifier on job applications. They toss anything where the person does not have a degree. Sometimes even a 2yr degree is not enough.
As far as what you need to get a job: The Holy Grail for IT employment is a 4 year degree, some industry certs and experience. If you have all three of those you should be good. If you have none of them you will be competing with other people who have two elements or perhaps all three.
