Get counseling to help you properly deal with stress. Talk to your doctor to see if you need some kind of anit-depressant or anxiety medication. Look and see if you can find a clear polish at a pharmacy or drug store to put on your nails and cuticles that has a horrible taste to remind your not to nibble.

Hi, I have a solution that I hope helps you. There is a formula out there that you can buy called "Stop Bite" in the cosmetics department of WalMart, in the nail polish section. It is a formula that tastes very nasty and will make you think twice about biting them again! I hope this helps you.

i used to do the same thing. the answere is... gum, Candy. the only time it his good. if you have something in your mouth than you won't bite your cuticles. or... the worst taste in the world is DANDALIONS. rub them on your nails. clear, and you will gag if you get your nails any where near your mouth.

If you start getting manicures, you'll see how much it hurts to bite them, and the more you leave them alone, the better they will start to look.

Wear boxing gloves when you're home and when you go to sleep. It sounds weird but it actually worked for my brother.
