And talking about it like it's some kind of taboo is very stigmatising.
I am proud of my personality. I love it. Absolutely love it and others that have similar personalities (also because they can always stand (up to) me). I think it has helped me tremendously.
I am not proud of people I hurt (also physically) and relationships I sabotaged and destroyed, damage I done to myself, but treating my problems as a taboo, not daring to name it, will not help me to work on it. And it won't for anyone.

It causes instability, changeability. Fearing that will leave an emptiness between pain and joy and a greater divide.
