I m 27, 5 2 , 372 pounds female. Is it possible to break the nail-biting habit (or picking at nails and tearing off of the nails)? I ve gone about a week now without messing with my nails other than to file them a little and paint them with different polishes. Today was (still is) hard on me, I want to pick at them so bad today. How long should I expect this habit to have disappeared if I continue not to pick at them?
