Hello all!
I'm sorry that this is way off-topic but I was hoping you all could help me out a bit!

I have been told by a few ppl that I whine a lot. I really want to stop, because I guess that it would annoy people! However, I really cannot help it--it's just my style...my voice is already kinda on the high side--and sometimes my complaining just comes out, i guess, as a whine!
Problem is, I never realize that I am whining till this guy friend goes, "Stop whining!" jokingly. Can anyone help me and give me feedback on how to stop whining? I'm usually a pretty open person emotionally-wise: i kinda wear my heart on my sleeve, though I DO keep my problems inside most of the time! Thanks for your time!!
