Been a nail biter for 20+ years
I’ve been a nail biter literally as long as I can remember. From boredom, anxiety or just cutting them way too far down because of hangnails. I’ve been trying again(going on two weeks now, probably the longest I’ve actually gotten too) to not bite them but my biggest struggle is the constant dirt that I see! I work in a place with a lot of dust and just dirty parts and even before I’ve never liked seeing the whites of my nails because then I can see the dirt. Also now that they have grown out a bit they feel so heavy and restrictive!
Does anyone have any tips to help one with trying to avoid the dirt, I’ve tried painting but then I just pick at the paint and if they get under it bugs me even more😅 and just better care ideas for nails that have been abused as long as mine have. Also how long till I’m used to the weight of them? It feels like I have fake nails on😭
