umm, well, i think what you're doing a form of self-mutilation / self-harm...and cutting is a form of self-mutilation / self-harm...
though i don't think its as dangerous as cutting, its still a bad habit...you should stop.

Um.. You could put It that way. Cutting is pretty bad. Bitting you're lips is just because you're under stress. You can change that in many ways. Wright in a notebook, or talk to you're friends about the problem's you're haveing. Hope I helped you, bu bi now... SeLmA 0x`

For most people, it's nothing like cutting. It's a way to release nervous tension. It's much more like biting your nails. I used to do the same thing (now I have a line of scars on my lip). I've stopped, but now I play with my tongue ring almost constantly.

Sounds like more of an anxiety type behaviour. My daughter picks scabs and stuff like that as well. I've been working with her on that. Each time I see her start doing that, I have to remind her not to because it will leave scars.

Well, biting your lip is normal but to make them bleed and then bite them again? I'm not so sure. But picking at scabs til they come off is normal because I've babysat kids all the time and they've picked at scabs and then my friends do, and i probably still do but i havent had a scab in a while. im pretty sure picking at scabs would be nothing like cutting. Cutting is worse.

Try to stop with the lip biting...


*hope i helped*

It's *NOTHING* like cutting WHATSOEVER!! It's NOWHERE *NEAR* as seveRe... but it's still NOT good, and a bit odd. ;D It's just plain unhealthy, and it should tRy to be avoided. Hope.. this.. helps!? =D

It's not like cutting but it's still a bad habit that causes damage on your lips.

no its nothing like cutting... at least i dont think so... however you may want to try and get some medicine becuase its not good for your lips. the only way it would be considered cutting is if it was with a blade or something sharp... i would say it was a bad habbit though so all i can say is try and get some medicine that doesnt taste good so you'll stop messing with your lips :D
hope i helped
