Diary of a junk food junky
"A habit that I have is eating junk food. It's a very disgusting habit. I've been trying to shake it for some time now but, especially when stress comes, that junk food urge...it starts to grow on you. So, it's a habit I need to give up. I'm getting better, though."

Asking "why" is a bad habit
"A bad habit that I have that I don't really know if other people have, but that's gotten me into some trouble sometimes, is just asking "why" or trying to figure out the why behind a lot of things. And that can be for anything, like, for education, for work. I'm given a task and I'm like, but I need to know the why behind it so I can figure that out and go around it and figure out my best way of doing it."

Help! Says man addicted to ice cream
"Ice cream. Ice cream is a terrible habit. I love it. I have to say it, I love ice cream! I've loved ice cream ever since I was a child. But I just...and I can't get enough. That's why the minute I start it's just like, it's just all downhill. So please! Keep the Ben & Jerry's, the Haagen-Dazs. Keep it all away!"

A nail-biting habit!
"A bad habit that I just can't give up is biting my nails. I used to do it a lot when I was in high school, but that was mainly an anxiety and stress relief thing. So, while I'm nowhere near as anxious or stressed out nowadays, occasionally it just comes up when I'm in a certain mood. So, yeah, it's pretty bad!"

The bad habit of picking fingernails runs in the family.
"I pick my nails. I think every, so many people out there pick their nails. It runs in my family. My mom chews them down to the nub. I chew them down to the nub, and my kids - also I have noticed - chew them down to the nubs. So yeah, it's genetics. It falls in the family, and I have just not been able to shake it. So, to this day, still pick my fingernails."

Leaving cabinet doors open is a bad habit
"Okay, so the bad habit that I have that I cannot quit is leaving cabinet doors open. Oh, my gosh. I have tried to be a little more conscious about it, but whenever I'm cooking or whenever I'm in the kitchen I just, like, open the cabinet door or I'll open the dishwasher and I'll just walk away and not shut them. And I know it's bad, and I can't stop."

Sugar and dessert are sweet bad habits
"What's a bad habit you have that you just can't quit? Well, I did quit it for almost a year, but that's sugar. I am a dessert fiend. I love all things desserts. I have the biggest sweet tooth and it's just something I can't quit. I don't think it's the best for me, but it makes me feel good. If I don't have anything sweet during the whole day, I'll just be in a bad mood. I definitely have a sweet tooth. I cannot quit sugar or desserts. They are my favorite."

Smoking is a bad habit that's hard to quit.
"So, I have a very bad habit. It is, that is, that I smoke and yeah, that's like basically the worst habit to have. So... But it's super hard to me to give up on that, but I'm very sure that I'm gonna quit it at some point. Yeah, I'm 100% sure with that."

Doom scrolling is a hard habit to give up
"A bad habit that I wish I could give up is doom scrolling. You know, there's a lot of bad things going on in the world. And realistically, there's not much that I can do about it. But sometimes I'm layin' in bed or just sitting in life and I'm just on my phone like, oh, this is bad, and this is bad, and this is bad, and suddenly all these major world events or all these crises are just in my life as a real thing. And it's like, I can't do anything about it, but I also can't stop reading about it. So, you know, that's on me."

Nail biting habit
"Oh, probably my worst habit is chewing my nails. It's not that I can't give it up. It's just that it's a nervous habit so whenever something, um, abnormal happens in my life it's, oop, there's my nails."
