im getting annoyed at myself... ive been biting my nails like im going to the chair or something... its starting to hurt and normally after a few weeks I stop biting... but its been since like may that i havent been able to stop...
anyone recommend a good remedy for this... one of those polishes that are supposed to make you stop... cause of the nasty taste or whatever...

What if you just paint them? Maybe the taste of the polish will be enough to stop you!

Re: Nails
a friend of mine bit her nails her whole life to the point where she hardly had any... she tried all those different polishes that supposedly help you stop but it didn't work for her at all. She ultimately just did it cold turkey and willed herself not to bite them anymore... she was so excited to get her first manicure 3 months ago lol.
She had it bad though, so maybe if you try one of those products it might work for you. I believe she used Mavala. There are probably other brands.

I can usually will myself to stop cold turkey... i bit my nails until i was 18 and then i stopped... i would go on an off.... for a few weeks at the most... but now its been since may...
i quit smoking when i was 20... i smoked since I was 12 and that was easier than this!!!!!

Re: Nails
You need to find something else to do when you get the urge to bite your nails. Buy a bag of dum dum lolipops to put in your mouth instead of your fingers! Or mints! This helped my friend quit smoking. Good luck!

sometimes it works sometimes it doesnt... ive been using pen caps... but lollipops probably work better seeing as they taste better... lol, and i wont look like a dingbat on the train with a lollipop but i will with a pen cap

Just be careful of the extra calories that quickly add up. ( I speak from experience). Also too much sugar might mess with your teeth.
