Toxic Trait Quiz: What's Your Most Toxic Trait?

Toxic traits can be defined as habits that drive others away. Habits such as addiction to coffee, fats, sugar, and nicotine can be brought under control, and you can lead a healthy life with your partner. However, more harmful habits or behaviors, such as violence, drug abuse, narcissism, sexism, racism, and others, do not come with a repair manual. These behaviors are toxic not only to your close ones but also to society. If you think some or a few of your traits bother people around you then before calling them toxic, you should get some counseling or introspect deeply in a peaceful space. You can begin by listing out habits that have received negative feedback from people around you. Then take this ‘Toxic Trait Quiz: What's Your Most Toxic Trait?’ quiz to find out which habits of yours need some amendment.
