Nail Biting. I bite my nails all the time.
Not enough to make them bleed, I stop when they start to hurt.
I don't even know that I'm doing it.
I tried keeping nail polish on at all times on my nails, but I've gotten used to the taste of nail polish and even end up scraping off the nail polish with my teeth, which is even work cause I end up swallowing nail polish.
I figure any type of thing that makes my nails taste bad I will get used to, so you do you have any other ideas for stopping me from biting my nails?

They make a special kind of nail polish that tastes foul, like to the point where you'll wanna gag. Drugstores sell it. Sometimes it's in the baby section cuz it's used for thumbsucking, too.
And french tips are pretty much impossible to bite off. ]
biting your nails to point that they hurt, and not even realizing it, may indicate you have a compulsive disorder. during your next visit with your doctor, discuss your habit with him or her. he/she can offer habit-breaking advice or treatment. ]
What my old teacher did to some kid who kept on biting her nails are as follows:
Coat of Chalk
Gloves
Finger Puppets
Condoms (to some of the older kids lol)
Gave them chewing gum
Bribed them (if you let your nails grow for a week without biting them, you get something. Always used to be candy)
FRENCH MANICURE WITH CLEAR GLOSS COAT (looks really good and girls never wanted to ruin them. Plus, the gloss coat is really hard to bite off)
Hope this help? =]
