Does anyone have advice for how to stop picking at nails? Ive had three full sets of acrylics in the past two weeks and ripped them all off after a few days. I don’t have the time or money to keep this up and now my nails are more soft and brittle and easier to rip than before

      Try wearing gloves. I have gloves that lock that I can’t take off and I wear them in my sleep to prevent picking in my sleep.

      i don’t have experience with nail picking but with my skin picking things to fidget with help, distractions when i’m getting the urge to do it, trying to find a replacement motion, and i wonder gloves may help? i wish you the best
