Nail Biters?

I chew my nails, not as bad as some of you though lol. The only time they get to the point of bleeding is when the nail comes off wrong and the side of it pulls. But yeah, I chew daily I think... maybe even multiple times.
I did grow them out for 2-3 months... but the entire time I wanted to chew them SO BAD. My nails are super thin so they were always bending back (they didn't really break, just bent back...) And I finally gave in ha. I've had fake nails a couple times... drove me insane. I took the 1st set off within a week, and I took the 2nd set off 2 days later!
I cant STAND to hear nail fling, freaking UGH! That and picking their nails with their other nails, the click click click sound is just so EW to me. Which is odd since I chew mine. It's just the sound to me, I don't know why. But that is the grossest sound EVER.

I'm a reformed nail biter, on a backslide.
From as young as I can remember I bit my nails viciously. I see pictures of the way my nails used to look and get so grossed out. I stopped biting my nails 3 years ago and have had long, strong, beautiful nails that I've been so proud of. I've been REALLY good about it until very very recently. My pinky nail on my left hand has been bitten off since just after the wedding. Just that one nail, but it's BAD! I don't understand it.

Ugh, I've been biting my nails since I was about 7 and I've never been able to stop. It's really bad, too, with lots of bleeding and my cuticles are wrecked. I've painted them to keep from biting and they grow out for a week or two, but I always cave in.
I'm thinking about buying some bitter apple for myself, lol.

Used to be. Not anymore. It was one of those habits that was hard to break when I wasn't truly set on it. But like most other habits, once I got over the initial hump, it hasn't been a problem since. Now I always keep my nails painted, even if just with clear polish, and they're pretty long. I clip and file them to keep them at a good length. totally random question, but do you all with nail file phobias dremel your dogs nails?
BLT!
Sometimes I bite my nails, moreso if I'm bored and notice they are crooked I'll straighten them up. I never use nail clippers on my fingernails, I either just chew them off when when they are too long and I usually break them off at work after opening 9248923758479824365 cans of rum for people. I just let them grow and I love how they are all different lengths all the time.
Plus I really can't stand the feeling of my nails short, if I place my fingers vertically on a surface and can feel my fingertip skin touching it grosses me out. That said my nails are alonly a few mm over the edge.
My nervous habit its scratching, if I'm really uncomfortable I'll just scratch at my arms or chest.

I used to some when I was younger, but not anymore. My nails are really thick and it hurts my teeth to bite them. I like to keep them clipped short though, because I play guitar and they get annoying. And they grow REALLY fast (as does my hair) so I have to clip them often. I do keep them painted most of the time though. I love nail polish.
Izzy does this! She bites her front dews only though. I knew she was part of the family when she started biting her nails lol.
I have been good about keeeping them painted for the last two weeks but omg I keep torturing my cuticles and how have three ripped off hangnail wounds.... I also have a habit of biting the skin to tht left or right of my nail when I know I can't bite my nail...
Right now I'm wearing Revlon Cloud to keep my biting in check!!
(Not my hand or picture!)
