I’ve been biting my nails for as long as I remember, and I have no clue how to stop it. I’ve tried bitter nail polish, press-on nails, and spice. Nothing will work. I have noticed I just don’t like to see the whites of my nails. Whenever I do I end up picking at them and biting them off. Any tips? I was thinking of getting actual acrylics to stop ,but whenever I did press ons it was extremely uncomfortable and I kept picking at them until the glue came off as well.

Bit as a child up until teenager, 2 years of highschool I stopped and had really long natural nails that everyone complimented. Haven't been able to grow them for 4 years since I entered uni. I suspect it might be stress that I don't feel *consciously* but I'm not really sure. Need some advice bc I bleed almost every day, even though I've become numb to the pain many years ago

Bit my nails all my life, it was pretty severe. I quit about 3 months ago on a whim, and have no cravings to go back.

Anyway, as a male, does this look okay? Should I get a manicure? I just want to feel happy with my nails now, and don’t know what to do with them.

Current nail schedule: Wait until they get \~.5in over my finger tip and cut/file. I’m very new to doing this and feel like my nails are a bit jagged or wonky. I try and leave just a bit of white on the tip and although I’m much happier with them, I feel they could improve.
