I've somehow managed to break 2 of these in the last 30 days. Are they supposed to break that quickly? Am I using it wrong somehow?

Nah, you're not at fault. These little fuckers are terrible. They also break your thread if you have to pull too hard. I've given up and now I'm just using a giant needle if I'm using the full 6 strands. I'll probably order some of the metal hook kind but for now it's fine.
