I'm a bad person.
I often wish for death and destruction when I don't feel well.

I also draw a lot of flawed conclusions. That means I must be stupid as well.

Does that mean I am evil? If so, what can I do to not be evil anymore?

Put yourself in a logical thought mode, and reality-test, when you start believing in absurd things.

None of us are perfect. Carry on being you! All is fine. :)

You are not stupid at all. You are not evil either.

When you see the reply I made to the other thread view it as a challenge. Do not view it as a criticism as it is not. It is a correction of your statement.

I do not think any less of you when I correct you. Likewize. On some things you will correct me on what I say. :)

Reading a good book, painting, “doing” in order to keep your mind in a better place is something I find helps hugely.

It's okay to feel angry or upset. That's part of being human, we have emotions that are often irrational, especially when they are of an origin of anger. Having bad thoughts is not the same as acting those thoughts out. If you don't actively hurt people or find enjoyment in hurting others, you are not evil. You feel bad for having those thoughts so you can't be all that bad.
