Stopped biting my nails after about 35 years of tearing them to the quick. It wasn’t my first attempt, but when I successfully stopped, it was cold turkey.
It’s been over four years now. I buy a new nail tool periodically to keep them looking good. I’m proud of them despite how trivial. The novelty of tapping on things and peeling stickers hasn’t worn off.
I also came to say biting my nails! Quit through sheer willpower, every time I noticed I recognized it, let myself finish, then set my hand on the desk or my lap. Stopped not long after.
