Is it normal to be obsessed with keeping nails short

10 Comments

Since a young age I constantly clip/peel my nails whenever I notice them getting long enough to see the white top. I don't cut them so short that it's gone completely, but it's just at that threshold. I get so obsessive over it sometimes tho, like having that white part there makes me really uncomfortable and I can't help but immediately clip them (or peel them if I don't have access to any clippers). I'm wondering if anyone else feels this way, or if it's common

Help us keep this site organized and clean. Thanks!

    I prefer my nails short, but I don't obsess about it. Whenever I clip my own nails I do my cat's nails too.

    I'm not obsessed with it but I like to keep mine short too - I garden and teach kids so I always get dirt, paint, glitter and other stuff under them. It's easier to keep them clean like that.

      Took me forever to work out the balance between my nails being long enough that I like them but not so long I'm a danger to the bubbas.

    I know too many people who are the same way. It's ok. Just try not to chew on them. It's a terrible habit.

    I'm a male, so I'm a bit strange, but I let my nails grow until they reach the point at which they become inconvinient, then I trim them down to the point that they're uselessly short. Then the cycle repeats itself.

    I've had a nail biting habit since I was 5 years old
