Why not then "I can't help my picking wrong tenses all the time"? =))

By the way, "I'm always choosing" doesn't make too much sense to me. What about you, guys?

" Repetition and Irritation with "Always"
The Present Continuous with words such as "always" or "constantly" expresses the idea that something irritating or shocking often happens. Notice that the meaning is like Simple Present, but with negative emotion. Remember to put the words "always" or "constantly" between "be" and "verb+ing."
Examples:

• She is always coming to class late.
• He is constantly talking. I wish he would shut up.
• I don't like them because they are always complaining. " ENGLISH PAGE - Present Continuous
