Im a nail biter .............?

For as long as i can remember i've always bitten my nails


and i've tried to stop but tis really hard ... i tried the nasty tasting stuff on the nails ... but i got used to it ... and in the middle of class i would try to bite and then get the taste and i couldn't spit in the middle of class ... so any other ideas? I really wanna stop. my nails look gross!


how did you stop?





I've tried lots ... i had a retainer for a while ... that kinda worked for a while ... and i bite my nails too short for nail polish ... like way too short. I've tried fake nails too ... its like RAWR .... theres nothing i can DO!!Im a nail biter .............?
Focus your oral fixation on something else. Start chewing gum or eating life savers (sugar free) or chew on the inside of your cheek...I used to bite my nails a lot but now I hate it. I always painted them to make them look pretty so I wouldn't want to chew them.Im a nail biter .............?
okay well i used to be a nail bitter too. i tried gloves, i tried the nasty tasting stuff too, i even asked my friends to slap me when i bit them. nothing worked. until i said to my self, this has gone long enough. and i stopped. just like that.


like my nails were really really bad. there was hardly any nail left. but you just have to stop. it takes about a month for it to fully grow. and once they grow and look good, you dont wanna bite them anymore.


so just try and stop.


good luck.
hmmm


you can wipe your nails with acetone everyday?





I don't think your gunna wanna taste acetone LOL


you can wear gloves while you 're at home, at school too and just say its cold =P





You can also maybe wear your retainer sometimes, when you feel like biting your nails !





goodluck!
omg, i used to be a bitter as well...well i know it sounds hard but i stopped cold turkey!! (its the best way)





ps- after i stopped cold turkey my nails grow about 5cm long in about 2 weeks, they were heaps strong and looked nice to!!!





good luck :)
I used to be a big time nail biter
