Is it normal to feel stupid about being a toxic person?

Yesterday I was toxic to a dude, I was highly critical and I never celebrated his success, something makes me want to change my toxicity. I know the obvious thing is that I am not a toxic person but I really feel strongly bad about being the toxic person I am. Ever since I learnt the repercussions I realised if I do continue I don't think I'll be ever liked in the real life world.

The one thing I want to do next is to take the ghost of toxicity out of me.

    Who told you that you are toxic? Can you be more specific about this so called toxic behavior? Most truly toxic people aren't as open, and honest as this.

    • I was told by people in my youth forum that I act in a way that is toxic to other people. For e.g. I see myself put other people down, I see myself as passive-aggressive.

      I thought I could tell you openly about this.

    I'm pretty self conscious so I end up being toxic sometimes in order to make myself feel better and I always feel really stupid afterwards. I feel like I just can't stop it. It's like I'm becoming a different person and just can't control my shitty behaviour. I wish I could just be nice and not such a total asshole. I think this will only truly change once I manage to get over my low confidence issues. I get you 100%
