i have been a chronic nail picker my ENTIRE life. i can not remember a time where i didn’t pick my nails. ive gotten better as an adult where i can fight the urge to rip them to shreds but still struggle sometimes. my nails have been through it and have seen a lot of trauma. what can i do to make me fall in love with them so i don’t pick! i’m trying to get better at shaping them when they do grow

I totally relate to this, I used to do the same 😭 what helped me was keeping them short and using cuticle oil daily so I had less to pick at. Have you tried anything like that?
Honestly they look healthier and nicer than a lot of nails/cuticles from people who don’t pick or bite to begin with! Cuticle oil daily and a mani of your choice is a good place to start ◡̈ people like builder gel manicures for strengthening their nails and discouraging biting/picking
