I have a very nasty habit of holding spit in my mouth until I can get to somewhere where I can spit (Drinking fountin, sink....) It only happens sometimes (mostly when I don't talk for a long pieriod of time) how can I break this habit?? I can't swallow it, I would probably through up!! I also have allagries!! Thanks!! Ps. I know this is nasty!!

The water in a drinking fountin goes through a filter before it goes back for someone to drink!! If you are not going to help me out please don't even answer!!

Carry a hanky or extra absorbant tissue with you at all times and when you feel the need to spit just do it pretending your wiping your nose. Also try carrying a drink with you aswell, that way you wont feel it going down so much, preferably a flavoured one so you cant taste your saliva going down making you nausious. Thats all I can think of I hope this helps.

I think I know what you are going through. Is the spit kind of like mucus after you cough or something? With my allergies you have to cough it up and spit it out. I usually swallow it, and feel sick too, but just drink lots of water. After swallowing it you need to cough it up, so hen you are alone, or at your house, drink lots of orange juice to break it up, pound your chest and cough. If your spit is just clear, just make sure you're swallowing constantly! If your still desperate talk to your doctor about it..........

chew gum or suck on a tic tac, if your not allowed to do that in school you can say to yourself " if i get through the day without spitting , i will go buy that really cute dress i saw at old navy" as simple as that, also in school you could drink water a lot so it will get your mind off if it

Try hard candy. When you spit in a fountian it goes down a
drain so don't the next person won't suffer.

that is nasty. just swallow every few seconds like everyone else dose. you can't be allergic to your own saliva.
