Would it be cheaper for me to try and paint them myself or try to bring to a paint shop ... I can't afford new cabinets ...
you may need to run a humidifier in the winter months. I would wait for summer to paint it.
I would use a wood filler and sand it smooth, prime and repaint.
Try running a bead of white silicon (the kind that will not dry hard and also crack) along the inside edge
I would get a caulk that you can paint. Fill the cracks then paint.
That is a seam between the molding and door. Fill it with silicone caulk and use a wet finger to force it in and smooth it out like Shore grandmom and Enlermm suggest. Don't use wood filler it will crack. You need something flexible there.
