I need to stop its really bothering me and im trynig to grow my nails on my right hand out for guitar...but i keep biting them
 
i bite mine, havent bothered to stop though.

i know a girl who was sucking her thumb til she was 11 or 12, her parents got some kind of medicine or some such to put on her fingers to make her stop....maybe it was something you can go pick up at a pharmacy?
 
I used to bite my nails all the time. A couple years ago, I just made up my mind that I was going to stop doing it and haven't done it since.
 
For as long as I can remember.

While I don't think women find it visually attractive, I know my GF appreciates me not having finger nails 😉

:Q:disgust:
 
Put your nails in dave insane hot sauce and dont clean out under them. First couple times you go for the nail your going to burn your mouth and stop.
 
I do. Makes my nails look like crap, I know. I managed to stop for over a month before, but my nails are really thin and extremely annoying when they actually grow out. If I don't file them practically all the way down I end up stabbing/cutting myself with them. Lose-lose for me...

I did the same, though it has been more than just a couple of years. I just decided it wasn't good for me and quit cold turkey.
 
I bite mine. Hot sauce doesn't work, as I like aything and everything spicy. There are much worse nervous habits to have, but I think I'm beginning to bite my nails off in such a way that they'll never grow back.
 
i used to bite my fingernails, now i bite the skin around my nails instead. i've done it ever since i can remember. i've tried to stop, but it is to the point where i don't even realize i'm doing it most of the time.

Ever hear of nailclippers?
 
i just need to not chew the nails of my right hand though, cuz i need to growout the nails to finger pick easier on my guitar
 
I bite mine, but only when they get too long and I'm bored. That is, it's less of a nervous habit and more of a grooming/entertainment thing. I also bite different fingernails different amounts (pointer and thumb get "trimmed" rather than bitten off), so that I can do things that require just a bit of fingernail.
