After 25 years of biting, I finally found a fix. I’ve tried every bitter polish and trick out there, but nothing worked until my wife took me to a nail salon.

I got acrylic infills without a tip (just the acrylic over my natural nail). The results were immediate. The "thick" and heavy feeling of the acrylic creates a huge psychological barrier; I’m much more aware of my nails, which completely kills the autopilot urge to bite.

The progress:

Week 1.5: Went back for a cleanup because they were actually growing.

Week 8: My nails look near perfect.

I just keep getting them refilled as they grow out. If you’re a lifelong biter and nothing has worked, give this a shot. The physical weight of the acrylic is a total game-changer.
