I have a horrible habbit of biting the skin around my nails. I picked it up 3 years ago and I've been doing it on and off ever since. It's just a nervous habbit, but it's annoying and my fingers get sore but I can't seem to stop! What should I do?

Try and do something to busy yourself with, something that includes both your hands. Like knitting. When you're focused on something else, you're less likely to automatically turn to your fingers.
Tell your friends/family to point it out to you when you're biting. You're probably not aware of it. And if they think it's gross - even better. Maybe how other people think of you will make you stop. |
