It's been six months to the day that I stopped biting my fingernails, a habit that had been plaguing me for the last ~17 years. Nailed it.

Lot of people asking how I did it. I wanted it. I tried before but always on other people's suggestions or because it would look better to others. This time, I convinced myself that nails are useful for everyday life and playing guitar & I wanted to look better for myself.

You don't have to bite them to shorten them, there's nail clippers.

My parents broke me out of the habit by putting acerbic bitter liquid on my nails. Any time I would go to bite it I’d be hit with that taste and I’d immediately recoil. Long story short it worked. But I guess self respect and playing guitar works too
-
I tried this and rejected it because it felt like I was being forced to change. Change from within is much more powerful.
