Nail Biting – How to Stop It!

I have been biting my nails for years and so has alot of the rest of the world I have a few simple steps that you may want to try.

How to stop biting your nails so much

1.  Put scotch tape around each nail? – this is only for the people who want to go to the extremes

2. Think systematically -  what I mean by this is think about what you are doing and why . What I find is that when I actually am thinking about biting my nails , I don’t because it seems dumb . Usually I bit my nails on instinct.

3. Sit on your hands- If you have to have your hands exposed for something then keep them away from the mouth area because that is where trouble starts .

4.See how long you can go without biting – Make it a little game , first try for a few hours , then days , then weeks, until it’s a  happy to not bite your nails .

5.Once you start , stop!- once you start biting quickly stop and punish yourself ( just be disappointed don’t actually punish yourself) laugh out loud.
