I used to have the exact same problem! I bit my nails until I was 14 years old. I used to have them bleeding every single day with pain. One day, I decided I wanted long, beautiful nails. I started by putting Sally Hanson, Miracle Growth (clear in a bronze bottle, $4) and I put it on every 2 days. They also have colors! It made my nails grow longer and thicker. It just started me out, now I don't use it and my nails are about an inch long each. I still do get the urge to bite them, and I do put them in my mouth but always carry a nail file. Once my nail chips, I chew on it to even it out but it is always bitten off. Just think of all the germs you are digesting and you are eating dead cells when you chew your nails. Always keep your nails painted so you won't get the urge to bite and chip off the nail polish! Good luck!

The stuff you want is called "CONTROL-IT!." It's guaranteed to stop you from biting your nails. You can phone l-847-696-9900 or e-mail: cs@prskincare.com. It retails for 24.99, but they're selling it for 19.95, free shipping. size .75oz. If it doesn't work you get your money back, but I know it does work. (My friend used it and it broke her habit. The best 19.95 she ever spent.) Good luck! :) -L Keep me posted! You can e-mail me any time. I have your name and what it's about. I love to hear I helped someone! Lynn

Give yourself manicures...dont have them paint any polish but when I find myself biting ( I am female) I get fake nails put on or get manicures...when I see how nice my nails and cuticles look it makes me take a real hard second before biting...try it...yes, men do get mani's.

i started to put on nailpolish..because theres like a kinda posion in there or what ever..thats what my friend said..but i wasnt sure..but i eventually stoped...unless your a guy that doesnt like to wear nail polish..then..i guess..you could do something like..try not to bite your nails for a whole week you could treat your self to something nice and if you make it in one week..try for two weeks...and so on.....well..i hope i kinda..helped...GOOD LUCK!

some say biting nails is a substitute for masturbation, so mug the bishop more often.

all you have to do is stop
just think of how insanely unattractive it is and how people are forced to look at it.
