stop picking my nails

oh man, this is SO HARD!!! i must keep going though…
:/

i havent picked my nails at all today, im sooo hapyy!

its been a slow start…all i have wanted to do is pick my nails today!!! eeek…

Ok bought some nail hardener, and now lets see how long I last. Any other guys trying to stop picking their nails?

I used to bite and pick at my nails constantly. When they got too short to bite, I’d take the jagged edges and run them back and forth across my upper lips, causing the skin to tear and bleed.

I’d been biting for about 15 years when one day, I realized the bottom of my front tooth (the one i used for most of my biting) was chipped at the bottom and starting to crack. I went to the dentist and he confirmed that my chronic biting was ruining my front tooth. He warned me to stop, but of course, I couldn’t.

One day, I was havng myself a fine time biting away, when a small chunk of my tooth actually broke off. I was horrified and disgusted with myself. I ended up having to go back to the dentist and he fitted me with a $90 part to replace the broken section of my tooth. Now the bottom half of my tooth is fake. So yeah. that’s how I stopped. I didn’t want it to happen again.

ok, so i took off my old polish, filed my nails, and put on like 5 coats of sally hansin hard as nails clear polish, and my nails have grown quite a bit.
bc now when i get stressed, i just pick the nail polish off, bc its really hard to get off.
and its not as fun as picking at my nails, so i just stop alltogether after a while.
then, when i get home i put on a couple more coats of polish.
i really love the polish,bc its clear, but it has a pink tint to it, and it makes your nails stringer.
i totally recommend it
(:

so, ive been trying to stop for like ever.
but school starts next week, and so im really trying now.
it was my goal over the summer, but that didnt happen…
lol
but hopefully i dont get stressed about school and pick them really short again…
i might get acrilics again, bc that helped last time, but then i would bite the tips off the fake nails!
but it did help some, and hopefully this time i can stop myself from picking the real ones and biting the fake ones.
we’ll see….

_{I don’t know how I will ever stop. It seems such a petty problem compared to other things that I don’t even ever really think about it… I just … I don’t know undertsand how I can enjoy it. What’s wrong with me?}

i can’t stop! my fingers are always so ugly. i hate it, but i don’t know what to do

I recently started to pick my nails again. It’s not as bad as before though, so I’m happy about htat at least.
