How did you eventually break the habit? I've found it the most difficult thing to stop, because I do it when I don't even realize.

Same, when coming out of surgery on anesthesia my nurse kept trying to remove a line from my hand and i wasn't having it. Had knuckles to crack. The habit for me is just that ingrained.

I replied to the post you replied to with how I did it. 👍

I kept track of every single knuckle pop, so if I popped one whole finger it would be 3 pops. I started by measuring my baseline and then setting goals. If I made my goal that day I could do something nice for myself like play video games or get desert with my family.

Took me almost 2 years.

And for 3 to 4 years after occasionally I'd have nightmares that I started popping them again. And over that same time period as winter would approach the desire to pop them got really intense.
