In my case? Pride. 90% of my bullshit comes from me being too prideful.

-
Greed
-
I don't know... It's hard to decide on just one
-
Guilt You can blackmail people who are guilty.

I don't think that there is just [u]one[/u] most destructive emotion. Here's some of my examples. Despair can hurt. Say you and your parents were abducted by criminals, who were going to kill them as you watched, knowing that you couldn't do anything to help them. Regret. It can cripple one's mind over many various reasons. Say you you were drunk and you cheated on your husband/wife, who impulsively divorced you. Boom; regret. Betrayal is a big one. Your best buddy since kindergarten just framed you for an incident that occurred at work, costing you your job (at least until you prove yourself innocent). Those are just a few of the ones I thought of that cause the most damage.
-
Envy causes a lot of problems.
-
Regret or self-loathing
-
Regret, loneliness, [spoiler]and if revenge too but it's not really a big thing now of days.[/spoiler]
-
Lust or greed Both can turn a person insane and into a monster
-
I think either pride or jealousy. For me it is jealousy but I think pride is a big problem for a lot of people too.

Happiness.... You lull yourself into a false sense of security and that's when some of the biggest mistakes are made.

Horniness No contest

Indifference. The link is to that of a speech by Elie Wiesel.

It is the lack of restraints such as Emotion and Caring that you should fear. In a fit of rage you are stupid. In an act of love you have a weakness for the one you love. When you hate them you can let go and forgive them.
-
Emotions in general, they all are too destructive.
-
Love Duh.
-
Hate. Hate can do much.
-
Anger, it can destroy do many things
-
In the right hands? Rage.

Love. Definitely love. Love can make you change yourself, to become who you think you should be, at the risk of losing identity. Love makes you ignore all risks, charge blindly into the unknown. Love is strong, if for the right reasons, but falls apart with a single tug if for the wrong. Love scars your soul. Love changes how you see the world, and the person you love, showing them in a wrong light, maybe only seeing the good, and not the bad. Love controls your life, takes every moment. Love is not bad, but a force to be reckoned with.
-
Happiness, now before you say I'm crazy let me explain why. It can be truthful but it can also be a lie. When you are deceived by someone that makes you happy it tears you apart and cause the floodgates of negative emotion to break. See my reason?
-
Jealousy.
