Similar to me, Hollysteers. I bit my nails from the time I had teeth. I started wearing false nails in 1965 when I got married. I still wear them now because if I didn’t, I would bite them again, and also, they look so disgusting. The trouble is, after all this time, they don’t really grow, so on the odd occasion I have left the acrylics off, I have immediately bitten them again. Nail strengtheners and all the products recommended to stop me biting them have been useless. I am embarrassed and annoyed with myself.
75 years or so is a long time!
