After having to block a person on FB again because they were chronically toxic to me, I'm realizing I come here and complain too much...

I try to make friends with people who don't have friends already, to try to be nice... But down the line I figured out why they didn't have friends, often these people were toxic...

But I realize I can be toxic and I need to talk about certain issues to a therapist, doctor, etc... Not to random strangers.... I talk about these issues openly and those that listen seem to be the ones that wanna unload a bunch of their stuff to me too, or worse use this information about me against me. I was warned by one of my neighbors I was saying to much to her already and I need to learn to keep certain things to myself.

I see my therapist again tomorrow, if I'm a less toxic person myself, I can make more irl friends, quality ones.

I never see your complaints here as toxic. You're just sharing your struggles here and it's absolutely okay.

Apologize for what?

You’re my friend. I’ve never seen you be “toxic” to anyone here.

You’re probably one of the least toxic people here. I’ve never had a problem with anything you’ve posted.

Don't let anyone tell you that you are toxic, or believe their words on a permanent basis.

I have been called this before & I was indeed toxic, but only because of other people having traumatised me with untruths & bullying. If the people calling you toxic are not willing to help you unwind your trauma & you have to do it all by yourself - then they are the toxic ones.

You don't need to apologize about anything.

Just like what all who have posted here have said, you certainly are not a "toxic" person.
