Answers:
Most pharmacies sell something called Bitter End which is a clear polish that tastes awful and gets you to stop biting your nails!.

If you don't want to try that, then try to focus your nervous energy on something else!. Play with your hair or for example, I gently tug on my ear lobes!. I know it sounds weird, but it works!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

why don't you try getting your nails done professionaly, this way you won't want to bite them as much!. just think nice acrylic finger nails with a french manicure!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Well get some REALLY NASTY smelling/tasting stuff!. Maybe some nail polish as well as like a smelly hated lotion!. just cover your hands with something YOU hate that doesn't enable you from doing every day things!. Some ppl actually like nail polish so you can use sevrel things depending on what you like and hate!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

ugh this is a tough one!. i bit my nails too, but not until they bleed and stuff like that!. what i would do is think rly hard about wat kind of dirty germs and stuff that are living on your hand!. also think about how bad your hands look and if you want them to stay that way and get worse!. God speed! :)Www@Answer-Health@Com

i think you should put some lemon or something sour on your nails so you dont bite it!. because of the bitterness!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

what happened when i was younger was she painted them with some stick stuff and dipped it in some really nasty smelling/tasting stuff!.!.!.
It worked!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

try to focus your nervouseness on something else like trying to play with your fingers and things like that!.maybe thatll help,that what i do if i have an annoying nervouse habit!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

try putting fake nails on!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

You must find a substitute for biting your finger nails and perhaps biting your toe nails instead might be a solution!.

Perhaps you could trim your toe nails and bite the clippings!. If you carry the clippings around with you then you can bite them whenever you feel like it!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
