Something Most Of Us Do (The Nasty Habit)

Well to start off.. i bit my nails.. well i used to..
it got so bad i would bit the skin arouund the nails..
i kinda kicked the habbit with some thing i thought of.
i put a bandaid on a finger on each of my hands.. and instead bite the band aid..
dont know if anyoen elese has this issue.. but if you do please leave have you deal with it..

i dont fele like spell chekcing my writing wright now ;)

:? Looks like everybody is ignoring this thread.
I had that habit too; I used to bite the skin of my fingers till they started bleeding. I started wearing plastic gloves (like the ones in hospitals) indoors for a week. Then it ended. :banana:

I chew pencils the moment one enters my hand.

I love to chew 'em...

I had both of those first two mentioned habits when I was a kid. Not having all of the skin that was supposed to be on the ends of my fingers started driving me crazy, so that habit stopped. A friend of mine told me in junior high that you can get pin worms from biting your fingernails. I don't know if that's true or not, but that message was enough to get me to stop. Now I just tear and cut the ends of my fingernails off with other fingernails.

I bite my lip :P

Crack my knuckles.

I crack pretty much anything that can be cracked in my body. A few years ago though, my neck stopped being able to crack... which is a really good thing because some chiropractor told our class in high school that a girl dropped over dead once when she did that. My toes have also gotten a bit tougher to crack. I go through phases with my back where sometimes it's easy to crack, other times it isn't. And I crack my knuckles alllllll the time. :P

i recently got this bad habit of biting the inside of my cheeks.... It's harder to quit than cigarettes. and i think cigarettes made me start this habit actually. Any tips besides, "just stop". That won't work because most of the time i'm not even thinking about it.

Whenever you feel like doing that, pop some food in your mouth? Then you'll be chewing food instead of yourself. Might get fat though. :D

You DO know why your neck stopped cracking, right?
Because your bones are so worn they simply cannot crack anymore. That's a bad sign, actually.

I have exactly the same problem BTW.

Oh! I also crack my knuckles, clench my teeth at times, and occasionally look at porn :P

Porn? This thread is about BAD habits! :P

Interesting. I can definitely see why that would be the case with my toes. I didn't crack my neck all that much before it stopped.

Actually, could you explain what exactly is going on when your bones get "worn?" Cracking is just releasing air...

I don't know really :?
My mom used to tell me that whenever I cracked my neck.
She's a doctor (sort of) so I believed her.

Porn is a bad habit! :embarrassed:

Yeah I crack me toes too when I remember to, they crack good as soon as you wake up. :lmao: Also crack my elbows, and legs.

I also chew on my lip or side of mouth.

And yawn way too much.

I bite my nails, the skin around them, my lip, pens and pencils.
I also crack just about every joint possible.
Is there something wrong with me?

Not unless there is something wrong with me. :paranoid:

Dear god...there's something terribly wrong with the both of you.

The only bad habit I can think of is popping my fingers and my back.

I am the same!

I pick my nose a lot when I'm alone.

One time, I plopped and my logs had bits of fingernails in them. They were also orange and smooth and smelled like I had been eating garbage the night before.

You could always substitute chewing "gum" for chewing food.
