Well, you do it in the first place because everyone has habits, girl, hate to tell you. And if you want to stop, put some paper over your pens so that you can't chew on them! Honestly, it works as well as putting disgusting nail polish on your nails so that you won't bite them. Decorate a piece of paper really pretty and then tape it to the pen. Once you stop your habit, take it to the test! Take the paper off and see if you have really stopped.

I started to chew on gum. It was a habit for me, not nervous or anything, but something that I would do without even thinking about it. I stopped after a pen exploded in my mouth (not really exploded). Don't start chewing on the inside of your mouth though, get gum or starburst something along those lines that is OK to chew on, and won't give you canker sores

Get some of the bad tasting liquid they use on children's thumbs. Paint it on the end of your pens.
I have tension in my right jaw hinge every morning from Rheumatoid Arthritis. So I either each crunchy grape nuts or granola bars or almonds first thing in the morning to work the jaw muscle.
Try a food substitute. What you are doing is just a BAD habit, we can all break habits if we set our minds to it. Good Luck!

I used to do that. Then I started trying to carry around gum, or skittles. and when ever I found myself chewing my pen I would chew some gum or skittles. Its a nummy way to stop, and not as bad for you.

Get fancy pens so you won't want to chew on them and they'll look nice, like a fountain pen or something. Or one of those metal pens, you definetly won;t chew on that.

Hello, Thank you for asking me this question. In my home country we have many people who chew on pens. Most of them you must pay for the service. Some of them are employed by the government for agriculture (if for example you cannot get your donkey to make sexy time explosion, government can send a person to you who will chew on donkey pens until the sexy time explosion). But here in the US my new favorite home, it is illegal to chew on penis here and charge monies. I am hoping you the best of luckiness.

Put fingernail polish on the ends of all your pins, and when you start chewing the pens it will taste gross and you will automatically stop.
