I was a shocking nail biter as a kid, they’re deformed now as a result. I have reduced it to chewing one nail, my biting nail, which I rarely touch

Paint your nails with something that tastes disgusting. Everytime you bite them it will remind you not to do it.

stories are great to read

I was a nail brighter, I do not know why but when I was pregnant with my third child I stopped. I never made a conscious effort to do so. Just one day I noticed my lairs looked nice. I still will nibble a hang nail if Incant find a nail file. My cousin was such a nail nibbled that she had no nails at all I don’t know how she could take them off totally. Her first employment was in an office and her hands were always busy typing. She stopped..cold turkey.. It can be done! I just don’t know how! Good luck

Good luck with this we have a bitter in this house and nothing we try stops. Good luck with stopping

I’m the same. Have always been a biter and can’t seem to stop. Help!

Why don’t you try something like hypnotherapy?

I have heard some people wrap tape around their nails. Maybe you could give this a go, as the nails will be covered and not exposed and if indeed you did put your nails to your mouth the first bit would result in a mouthful of medical tape. Wishing you good luck.

I use to bite mine until they bled and Mum tried everything and than one day I saw some lady with lovely long nails and I was determined to have long nails and I stopped biting them. Have you thought about if you get enough nail grown spoiling your self and have gel nails done or somthing like that…it give you a goal to aim for

What about applying something awful and bitter tasting to your nails like Stop N Grow that is available from most pharmacies.

I’m also a nail biter but on a few occasions when I have an up coming event I can stop biting them with the help of nail polish. I have a wedding to go to in August so I’m been hoping I can have a decent length by then. Good Luck!
