    That’s a very low bar for ruining lives.

    Consider that you have discovered a disturbing trend in yourself that you would like to address before it hurts more people… and also consider forgiving yourself while you work to be better.

    As another said, therapy is a good idea, especially as you know one of the things you would like to address in that therapy.

    It’s a long journey to be a better person, but not because it’s difficult to make progress. It’s long because once you’ve started, you develop the skills to continue being introspective and working toward your true self.

    What works for you, works for you.

    It may be possible to slowly wean yourself off of these behaviors that are worrying you. If it’s down to once a month, there isn’t as much of a jump to zero times a month, but maybe sometime. And then once it’s been a year, congratulate yourself for that and keep going.

    Habits are hard to break and much easier to fall into. But if you are more conscious of these decisions, it all becomes a little bit easier with time.

    That kind of mindfulness is a skill that is hard to develop, but your post leads me to think you’re already on your way.
