Without trying too hard, I stopped biting my nails last week. I used the “notice when you are doing it and focus all your attention on stopping” technique, and haven’t thought about it much otherwise. They are much longer now.
Although I have noticed that when I admire how long my nails have gotten, I get an urge to bite them. Maybe should try to replace this with a mental note to clip/file them.
