Hey /adv/ simple question,
How can I stop biting my nails? I had long nails for about a 2 year streak, but then I got into a rough situation in life which required a lot of tension in my brain. I then lost that streak and I can't stop biting my nails. Even looking at them makes me wanna bite them.
Help would be appreciated!!

I have the same problem, but I know it's just a symptom of anxiety or stress.
Solution is to address your anxiety, and you feel that compulsion less.
Well, keeping them short will make it so there's not much to bite on. That might help some.
You could also try to replace one compulsion with another, so whenever you feel you really want to bite your nails you do something else, like snapping your fingers or whatever. Eventually you'll train yourself to snap your fingers instead of biting your nails.
