¿Cómo desaprender a morderse las uñas?

Nail biting is often a habit that is difficult to break. However, there are some things you can try to help you stop biting your nails. Here are some tips that may help you:

1. Identify the situations in which you reach for your nails most often. Is it stress, nausea, anxiety or something else? Once you identify the situations that provoke you to bite your nails, you can try to avoid these situations or deal with them differently.
2. Replace nail biting with another behavior. You can try holding a chewing gum or sugar cube in your hands when you feel the urge to bite your nails.
3. Use an unpleasant specific, such as e.g. liquid or nail polish that is not pleasant in taste and will discourage you from biting the nail plate.
4. Pay attention to your nails. Try to take care of them by painting them regularly and using a conditioner. When your nails look good, you'll be less likely to bite them.
5. Use behavioral or cognitive therapy. Therapy can help you understand the reasons behind your habit and teach you effective ways to deal with it.
6. Consider engaging in various types of sports or other activities that will consume your time and allow you to relieve emotions and stress

  It is a psychological problem. You need professional help.

It is worth rubbing some conditioner with a bitter taste into the nail plate. Castor oil works great, as it strengthens the nails and at the same time discourages biting them.

Maybe a try with bitter finger helped me

You'll be fine with it, I know because I've done it too. It's a habit from youth. Everything is in your head, every time you want to do it, it's worth having something in your pocket or with you and kneading it in your hand. I had a ball. I know you'll make it, just be aware of what you're doing. Regards😊

I know how you feel, I've been biting for 38 years!!

It's just a habit that kicks in when:

1. stress
2. excitement
3. boredom

Some advice:

1. Paints don't do anything...
2. Every bad habit needs to be replaced with another good or harmless one. I often had a pencil nearby that I played with, twirled or tapped with. I did it whenever I felt the urge to put my fingers in my mouth.
3. Memory - remember that you are forbidden to bite, whenever you put your fingers in your mouth - remember this and give up ... it also gets into your blood and even
4. If you have trouble remembering, get someone in your family who is often with you to pay attention
5. I started supplementing with zinc- and it seems to me that also then the desire to scratch has decreased
6. read about what you introduce to the body with biting - it worked for me. I feel bad just thinking about it now.
7. and finally, the simplest - if you want to achieve something - start doing it, the same works the other way around. "start" not biting. and after a few days, weeks you will be looking at pretty fingers and nails. Step into the shoes of the person who has to watch it, feel ashamed (I felt it when I saw a person with equally bruised nails) and I decided that I want to have nice hands

It helped me to hold something in my hand, such as a pen. And I didn't bite my nails because of it.

To limit nail-biting, here are some tips: Identify triggers: Observe when and under what circumstances you bite your nails (such as stress or boredom) and try to avoid them. Keep your nails trimmed: It may be easier to resist biting them if they are shorter. Apply bitter-tasting nail polish: This can make biting your nails less tempting. Find a healthy substitute: Replace nail-biting with a healthier habit, such as chewing gum or squeezing a stress ball. Get support: Share your struggle with friends or family members and ask them to encourage you to stop nail-biting. Reward yourself: Set goals and celebrate achievements with non-nail-biting rewards.

Nail biting is also neurotic, I recommend a psychologist or a special nail polish, you can buy at the pharmacy.

I've been biting my nails for 25 years.... managed to stop for a while, but just a little more stress and you'll instinctively do it again :)

Nail polish will work

I had the same problem, you can buy drops that give a bitter aftertaste, which can discourage you and wean your brain from this activity

If you bite your nails, know that it looks very unsightly and women look at your hands because it says a lot about a man, try to buy a colorless varnish against biting and paint your nails with it, it is very bitter and you may unlearn.

wipe without toilet paper and without washing hands :P

Nail biting is a common addiction that can be difficult to break. Here are some ways that can help you unlearn this behavior:

Identify the situations or emotions that make you want to bite your nails and try to avoid them or deal with them in other ways.

Learn relaxation techniques such as meditation or yoga to help reduce stress and anxiety that can lead to nail biting.

Use alternative methods, such as chewing gum toys, to satisfy your chewing needs.

Use a special nail polish that acts as a deterrent to discourage nail biting.

Use some bitter preparations. The best castor oil that also causes nail growth.

I bit my nails for a long time until I finally saw how terrible my nail plates looked and I just stopped on my own.

Stop doing that and you'll be fine

it is best to buy a transparent varnish and its disgusting taste will cause reluctance to bite

There are special nail polishes (bitter) that limit this habit. However, this is mainly a psychological problem.

There's a cream you put on your fingers and it tastes bitter. It helps pretty quickly

I have/had this problem. You need to find a job/job that requires working gloves. The problem goes away pretty quickly. Normal nails, work->ruch_kasa... only "positive pluses"...

a bitter cloth and gloves, preferably as thin as possible. In addition, you need to think about why you are doing this, talk to a psychologist about it and look for an alternative together

You should go to a therapist, preferably a cognitive-behavioral one, because there is an undesirable reaction to psychological factors.

You can also try to figure out the reason why you bite your nails, addressing the underlying psychological causes, rather than just the symptom, may help you to quit it permanently

Have a new hobby which will make you forget about this nail biting thing I had a friend which were doing the same thing but unfortunately I have not tried to stop him. 

Be patient with yourself or whoever is doing this. Breaking a habit takes time and effort. It's normal to slip up and bite your nails from time to time, but don't get discouraged. Keep reminding yourself of your goal and keep trying.

For me, it helped to make nails, no matter if they will be acrylics or gels.

The fight, as with any other addiction, is not easy, but it is worth taking action, first of all, if it is psychological or stressful, you need to go to a specialist. On your own, you can snack on healthy snacks or throw sugar-free gum, put aloe vera on your fingers and paint women nails with bitter gel or varnish.

I had the same. Every unevenness, every burr caused the desire to gnaw, often unconsciously. I started with the elimination of subconscious biting, and just in case I asked my relatives to pay attention to me and I started wearing a nail file. It helped.

Eliminate the cause, perhaps it is nervous

1. Get attention with other activities. Before you start biting your nails, choose another activity, such as grabbing bubble gum or twisting matches.

2. Learn to relax and breathe more deeply. Stress and tension are the main causes of nail biting, so focus on relaxing your body and making you feel better about yourself. Doing simple breathing exercises or even just counting to ten can help.

3. Eat well and take care of your physical health. Regular exercise and eating nutritious food can improve your mental state and well-being, which means less risk of nail biting.

4. Buy a special nail polish, if you tend to bite your nails, you should never have direct contact with your lips and oral cavity to avoid bacterial infections or other oral hygiene problems; this preparation creates an acidic filter that protects your nails from biting.
