k i bite my nails too. Do you like lemons because you could dip your nails in lemon juice or sumthing you dont like. ]
Well, sometimes people bite their nails of habit. If they're stressed or nervous. So if you're doing it because of that, just take deep, slow breaths instead. And if you feel the urge to bite, just resist it. Focus your attention elsewhere. Look at a painting of start listening to music or something and try and take the focus off your nails, or pinch yourself or something. Sometimes what I've heard of people doing is everyday [ I don't know how many times though ] they try and put something nasty-tasting [ and obviously something that you won't like, die from tasting and everything ] onto their nails so whenever they do bite, they won't want to cause they taste disugsting. I once knew someone who tried to use uh, I believe it's called Petroleum Jelly [ that stuff people put on their teeth to help keep them smiling ], because that stuff tastes bad. Or like the other advicenator said below, use nail polish. I hope I helped. <3 ]
Hi.
I kinda know how you feel. My sister had the same problem. Telling yourself not do sometimes works but I know you can't help it. Try to put tape on them for a while (not that stylish but it works) Or try to use nail clippers instead of teeth. If that doesn't work, try to distract yourself everytime you are about t6o bite them. *ex. try listening to your favorite musoc and i don't know maybe dance to it or have a party with some friends)
Hope I could help!!

whenever you see yourself bitting your nails, pinch your self. tell a friend and make them stop you when they see you bite your nails. when you see yourself bitting, do something really embarressing, such as yelling "wah-hoo!" and then you'll be like "omg this is so embarressing, i think i'll stop." or use that icky nail polish stuff.
I hope I helped!

I used to bite my nails and it was really hard to stop, but I finally did it. There's this nail polish out that is for people who bite their nails and are trying to stop. It's clear and it tastes nasty. If you aren't able to find that, just try the rubber band method. Everytime you go to bite your nails, snap the rubber band. ♥ ]
This is a psycological problem.You do this when you feel stressed out.And you just cant stop even though you KNOW your fingers will bleed.I think you should try to relax a bit and whatever it is thats stressing you,open up and tell someone about it. ]
dip ur nails in finger nail polish remover each morning and when you go to bite them you will get a nasty taste in you mouth and then you'l stop or you can dip them in hot sauce. either way will work. hope i helped! <3 ]
