After acrylics, what do I do? My nails are so thin!!?

My nails are thin and flimsy by nature. For my wedding 2 months ago, I got my first set of acrylics, and have been keeping up with them since then, getting fills every 2 weeks. The other day, about 1/4 of one of my artificial nails broke off, and the nail underneath is tissue-thin and wanting to peel and tear. I have been wearing a band-aid over it, and I need to know what to do next. I'd be great with getting the acrylics off if I knew what was the best treatment for keeping my nails strong while they grow out. After a lot of internet reading, it seems silk might be the way to go, but I just don't know. Any suggestions? I need to do something soon! I do know I have thoroughly enjoyed freedom from nails tearing in the pink and bleeding since I go the acrylics, but now I feel like a slave to them. Help!
