The reason why habits don't work is because habits don't work. Unless you actually change your mind (what is causing these habits) in a pretty comprehensive, introspective way, habits won't get you anywhere.
Although if you are super down with habits, you should keep going. Just saying it's probably a dead-end, and if you really need to solve your problems (i.e. some habits are so crucial that you need to form them/get rid of them to proceed in life), then habit-hacking (or just any sort of self-help in general) won't help. Start looking in the direction of meditation, or just whatever you feel like. Relax a whole lot. The self-help industry is fueled by anxiety.
Belief makes most self-help work, which is also why it is hard to un-believe it in case it's wrong. Very weird corner of the world, that is, the self-help space.
*: Habits that work aren't habits that were constructed.
