 Oh I know trust me but at least with whitening I have a nicer smile. My teeth look the same now but feel worse lol

 actually you shouldn't try whitening...that'll damage your enamel (cleanings, no...)

 I know it’s bad so I try not to do it more than once every 18 months.

 Don't do it--damage is cumulative (i.e. you never grow more enamel--you might be able to remineralize somewhat, but what you have now is all you're ever going to have, and whitening strips off a small layer each tiem you use it.
