I live on the other side of the world
When I was 7 my brother started eating finger nails, I started it too. He stopped eating when he was 11 (1 year later). It started simple, but it got worse and worse. I myself wanted to stop, but its not easy.

Items needed:
a bag of Bubblegum (sugar free)
A pair of Gloves
Tape
Wanting to stop.

1. Having an accident (optional & preferred):Have your friend push your fingers untill you scream. Tell your mom you tripped and fell on your fingers. Youll have a cast for 2-3 weeks. I had it for 3 weeks.
After 3 weeks, youll have to resist the pain of not eating your finger nails. After another week, you should bite them not enough to break them.

2. A) Gloves: Wear a pair of gloves, do not take them off. Do not think of taking them off.

2. B) Tape: Put tape around your nails. Do not take it off. And do not think of taking them off.

3. Bubble gum: Buy a bag of bubble gum, Sugar free. Take around 5 or 6 everywhere you go. And eat them where ever you are.

A good guide. I have a major addiction to eating finger nails. Well I don't really 'eat' them, but I just bite them off. In addition, I have a major skin ripping/biting problem. If you look at the skin on my fingers around the nails, you will literally throw up. This guide could help me out for sure. 8/10
 
Lol, I also bite my finger nails off, which means I have horrible nails. I like the gloves part, but I don't think the bubble gum would work for me.
 
Good so far, I'm interested to see it completed. Hopefully it won't diminish the guide that you have up already.

Keep up the good work.

I rate the guide 8/10.
 
Ok im pretty sure no 1 is going to break their own fingers to stop them from doing it but other than that a pretty decent guide. 6/10

Really dont like this guide, grammar in the title is even wrong.

Nail biting is a habit, not an addiction.

Chewing bubble gum constantly will rot your teeth out fast, try sugar free.

Limiting yourself sounds very stupid... as people can just chew on one nail for a long time, this isnt smoking or cocaine its calcium DRINK MILK.
 
this rises along with the addiction of picking your nose - if you dont stop, you'll never stop.
 
nice guide....think ill do bouble gum...im not mj so no gloves plz, and tape is just well.....a little gay, y dfoes gum have to be sugar free
 
i guess the not wanting to bite your nails anymore would be enough on its own. worked for me.
 
i got a big problem with biting nails but i tried the bubble gum before and it helps a lot!!! the gloves sound ok too but im not to keen on breaking my hole nail off 10/10
 
Erm this could be the same for suckign your fingers anyways when I was 4 my mum put chilli on my fingers when I was sleeping it did the trick instantly.
 
Hmm, I guess if your habit becomes an addiction...this could work...sort of...but who the fuck would sacrifice 2 weeks of their lives to stop biting their nails? I mean, 2/3 weeks of no sports? And no jacking off? :O

And you'd need a cast on each hand, wouldn't you?

Other two methods are pretty good. One more you could add:
Dip your nails in HOT sauce. I don't mean like salsa. I mean like HOT, DISGUSTING sauce. When you subconsciously go to bite your nails, you get the taste of the hot sauce, and your brain remembers that as a reaction to biting your nails.

Still, 7/10.
 
I agree with the hotsauce Idea lol
 
Haha OMG thank you! I only bite my nails when I'm nervous though =)
