i have a bad habit of biting the skin around my nails. and i REALLY need to stop, any suggestions?

Answer 1

Put sh*t on your fingers.

Answer 2

You can buy a special liquid at any pharmacy to help people kick their nail biting habits. It's a very bitter liquid ("Nail Bitter" I think it's called, although I'm sure there are other brands) that you apply to your nails (or the area around your nails). The idea behind it is that every time you go to bite, you get this nasty taste in your mouth, so you will condition yourself to stop your biting habit.

You can always ask your friends to stop you every time they see you bite too.

Answer 3

Hun ask your self why, you do that, because most of the time we do things like that when , nervous, or have alto on our mind, we all have something that we do . that's habit forming. so just see what make you feel the need to do that. an then take it a step at a time , an cut back on doing it.

Answer 4

--1) take some cayenne pepper and mix it with water and paint it around the nail area

--2) take up a hobby that keeps your mind occupied

--3) talk to a good friend to figure what's really bugging you

Answer 5

Try putting nail polish on your nails. If you use clear matt finish nobody will notice. Also, they sell nasty tasting stuff (Sally Hansen products) but I don't remember the name.

Answer 6

There is some stuff at the store called "Bitter Biter" to break people from this...leaves a nasty taste in your mouth when you try to bite it...Walmart probably has it.
