This is self harm to a certain degree. This can leave you with a permanent scar in later years or oral cancer due to the constant trauma to the tissues. Please stop this now x

I am a dental nurse

I used to suffer from the same habit when I was your age... Still do a little bit (I had to stop myself when I read your question!) it just doesn't bleed anymore.
Solution is, use a lip scrub to rid of all the dry skin and Vaseline to heal and smooth your lips out a bit, this way you should have less 'peely' skin there to 'pick' and it will hurt like hell to get to it... Also the though of how horrid it will be fore people to kiss you with weird and uneven lips!

My self.

i have the same problem. im 17 and have been doing it since i was 9< it looks like im biting my nails but i pick the middle part of my top lip and it just feels so god,there have been times when i stop because i find things to do with my hands which distract me and because i know how unattractive it looks for me as a girl doing it<eventually you'll stop and get fed up of it just keeps telling yourself you will have no lip left or chop ur nail really short which u use to pick it so it doesnt feel good...

okay that's kinda wierd.. and yeah a bad thing in my opinion anywaysss. i would carry some chapstick and just rub the chapstick on it whenever you want to bite your lip. this should give you another taaste to keep you from wanting the blood taste and it could keep you doing something to your lip without biting it. the chapstick will lso help heal your lip.

:O I DO THAT! oh i no longer feel aloneeeee :D. I also bite the inside of my mouth too. O.O
Its a bad habit which im still trying to get over :L:L But for me chewing gum helps alot especially when im like watching tv because thats when i tend to do it.

So yeah i would say try some gum and try and reconise when you're more likely to do it, when you're bored etc.

Yeah I do that but i dont like the taste of blood?
