Just… being lazy. Like, the clothes are washed and dried, but they stay in the basket and never get put up. I put chores off a lot. There’s a certain anxiety I have about stuff, like I’m worried it’ll take forever or take a lot of effort. It never does, and it always works out better, but that anxiety stops me every time.
I’ve started saying everything multiple times like Johnny Two-Times in Goodfellas and it’s driving my wife nuts nuts nuts.
As a teenager I ironically started saying “howdy” as a greeting. It’s now decades later and I still can’t break the habit.
I am in no way from the US, let alone parts of it that would say howdy on a regular basis.
You should merge your thing with the guy repeating stuff to his wife’s chagrin.
Howdy, howdy, howdy

I was certain it was the shark, bwahahaha!
It can’t be harmless, but I bang my teeth together in delicate and particular ways to simulate playing drums and I’d really like to not do that no mo.
I’ve been attempting to stop biting my nails for decades at this point.
I managed to break this particular habit. A friend of mine commented about how she looks at people’s fingers nails… I stopped overnight. Got an actual set of files and keep them shaped and buffed. A little oil and they are nice and shiny without any polish too

Have you tried nail polish? I had a nail biting phase which I successfully replaced with a nail polish phase.
I’ve had it suggested but haven’t tried it. Are you talking about color polish, or what people have tried suggesting to me, polish that tastes awful?
I do colour polish because I like colours, but frankly I’ve not encountered any good-tasting nail polish :P
I was able to stop by teaching myself classical guitar. Suddenly there was a reason to have nails and it was easy to stop. I guess it’s similar to the other guy having nail polish. Find a reason for yourself to have fingernails instead of simply trying to stop biting them.
I crack literally every knuckle in my fingers. I crack my wrists, elbows, neck (that one actually has caused issues), and can even crack my toes and knees sometimes.
I really really want to stop, but as soon as I feel that pressure in my joints, I just have to pop it.
I’m just really bad at forming habits. I know what I need to do, I can come up with routines or ways to do it, maybe even do it for a couple of days. But I just can’t seem to ever get habits I want to form to last for any length of time.
Every task requires my full activation energy to achieve, I can’t get into and hold habits where I’m already primed for it. It sucks.
