also people on drugs bite there lips
Why does lip biting feel good?
Biting your lips may be triggered by various situations, for example tension, boredom, loneliness can all trigger a lip biting episode. And like any behavior it can come to feel strangely satisfying after a while, even though it hurts!
This is because your brain learns to set up expectation, the biting happens and that expectation is fulfilled - just like the expectation fulfillment mechanism that occurs when an addict gets their fix!
Lip biting is destructive and damages face tissue and teeth as much as it does the lips themselves. So any satisfactions derived from lip biting are of course outweighed by the damage done.
And to make matters worse, as well as horrible looking and sore lips, when the lower lip is repeatedly bitten the upper teeth are forced to move abnormally. This can stop the front teeth from fitting together properly. If this is prolonged, orthodontic problems can result causing pain and damage to the teeth and face.

Well for me it means to things. I am biting my lips to keep from saying something that I shouldn't or I'm biting my lips because I am enjoying something a little too much.

It means to be quite. To bite your lips so you will not move them to say anything at a time when you should not.
It is usually used during subordination of a child, an employee and others etc...
However, it is not necessarily an insulting one either.

It is a nervous habit that people do when they are under stress.
No mystical meaning there and it is better than biting your nails.

I do it for two reasons:
1. When I am concentrating on something I do it and don't even realize it.
2. When I am turned on.
