1st October 2015 - I guess this is where the journey begins. I have bit my nails for as long as I can remember and I hate it. My nails look awful! Its gotten to the point that I feel anxious every single day because of my hands, i am ashamed to show my nails in public that i make sure i walk around with hands tightly shut. I hate it, its embarrasing! I have had so many people look at my nails and tell me how awful they are, my ex boyfriend hated holding my hands because of my nails and this really affected our relationship. I have tried quiting so many times that I would get up to about a month with no biting and then i would go back to my old ways again. Hopefully though I will be able to stop this time. This is going to be one of the most challenging things in my life but it will be worth it! I am ready to break this never ending cycle. I will be posting daily if not weekly updates on what my nails look like and how my journey is going. It is time to put in end to this on going vicious nail biting cycle. If anyone else out there is doing this to feel free to comment, the more support the better :)
