Any good advice on breaking a bad habit? Mine is a nervous laugh. Not sure why I do it, but it has a lot to do with my general anxiety in some social situations. Sometimes I do it to try to cover the fact that I don't particularly care for the person I'm speaking with, but not always.

reward yourself every time you're in a situation and don't do it. for awhile you'll probably have to make a conscious effort, but after awhile it'll come naturally. good luck

It only takes three times to make a habit. It takes ninety days to drop one. First you must be "ready" to drop it. Are you? That is the first step. The next is finding a way to become aware when you do it. The rest is doing this for ninety days.
