My road to stop nailbiting was "cover your nail in foul-tasting liquid, and make sure to get a new one every day because you will get used to everything". And that took a year or so.

So I love that better options exist now, but you're absolutely right that self-medication is pretty much always a bad idea.

True, I've talked to a professional. :) I'd recommend the same. The liquid wasn't working for me nor were acrylics.

sounds like treating my skin picking by covering them problem spots with bandaids...
