The following statement are made only throught observation and guessing;
Since mewing is supposed to reduce the face vertical length, your nose could look smaller indeed. I have seen some people having their nose "bump" reduced but not vanished. However, nothings tells that the nose will shorten in horizontal length. But the fact that it reduce it's height may make it look longer (even tho it's not) as an illusion. Also if you are scared of doing something wrong, stick to "soft-mewing", so you can get used to the posture and you are not risking deformation. Try to find as much info about the correct tongue position and listen to your body. Hopes this helps a bit even tho it may be "foggy"

I was only light mewing for 3-5 days and it was already clicking a little at the evenings of the last 2 days when biting the food... What am I doing wrong?

What I do is that I just try to stabilize my tongue by some pressure on the roof of my mouth, mostly at the back because that forces the rest of my tongue on the top too, although the back is the hardest to reach so I need light presure to stick it there. I don't push hard I just want to feel that I'm promoting the bone and not just touching..petting the flesh. Where should I push the most? Where I shouldn't?

I can't even mew properly yet, I always forget it after eating, talking, idk I'm too tired to think about it when I'm waking up. Not in my muscle memory yet, only the touching sometimes, which is useless unless glasses deform nose too lol. How did you get used to it? How long did it take? How much stronger is your tongue now?

Can I gain symmetrical face just by mewing? Smaller nose without bump? Because these are what I have unfortunately, yeah my nose is too big for my mouth, thats why I hated sealing my lip like that, resting bich face, but I never were a mouth breather. I heard that by pushing upwards - as I do it the most cuz it's less tiring, feels good natural, and my tongue needs less job frontwards to make pressure - not only the cheeks but the nose would get prominent... or is this the temporary "duckling state"?But mine is already biig, it's not just self doubt, how could it get bigger I don't want to make it like an ugly witch, should I only push forward then? But that would mean I can say goodbye to my cheeks? Or how is it, where exactly do the cheeks should be going by mewing? What part of mewing does what? My cheeks make the side of my face, not straight, wide and the barely bump is in line with my eyes-nose instead of my nose-mouth.

Also, compared to my mouth, my chin/jaw is huge, there is a lot of space, how can I reduce it?  It's not recressed, but mewing makes chins seem even bigger, since it makes midface shorter, right?

Thank you really

Clicking and all that is super common with Mewing.  It is a huge problem.  See my post on hats off to Dr. Mew.  It is irritating that he has no disclaimers.  I personally had TMD problems and stopped.  The problems never went away.  My maxilla actually retruded.  There are many, many problems that arise from this stuff.
