Black Op Posted March 20, 2004 Report Share Posted March 20, 2004 Has this been happening ever since you went cold-turkey on tobacco, Tim? If so, it's probably just a result from giving up smoking. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Curufinwe Posted March 20, 2004 Report Share Posted March 20, 2004 (I am biting my nails, my father is biting his nails, my grand-father is biting his nails and my late great-grand-father was biting his nails ...Can't this be some kind of hereditary habit ? :drug: I wonder if my kids will bite their nails ...

DarkAngelBGE Posted March 20, 2004 Author Report Share Posted March 20, 2004 Yeah I guess they will. Man there must be some way to stop it. Some friend of mine got a fluid on his nailsfor two weeks so he would always throw up once he bites his nails. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CodeOptimist Posted March 20, 2004 Report Share Posted March 20, 2004 Usually biting nails is a sign of stress... you stressed out? Maybe you could find something else to relieve stress like intense physical excersise ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarkAngelBGE Posted March 20, 2004 Author Report Share Posted March 20, 2004 Woohoo, yeah that sounds good. Hmm Timbo being stressed ? Umm, I think I don't have to answer that question, the answer is too obvious. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Curufinwe Posted March 20, 2004 Report Share Posted March 20, 2004 (I already have Intense Physical Exercice ... but I still bite my nails And I am not particularly stressed ... my problem is : often, my nails are not enough so I start biting the skin around it ...When I was 10, I had a serious accident on my wrist and I could not feel anything in my fingers (even now, my perception on my fingers is about 70% of what it should be) and I bit my fingers so deeply that I reached the muscles ... and the surgeon had to operate me again ...

CodeOptimist Posted March 20, 2004 Report Share Posted March 20, 2004 Yeah, I would recommend some other way to allieviate stress, like exercise, chewing gum, etc. (although, chewing gum could hurt your teeth, and that's another story entirely! ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarkAngelBGE Posted March 20, 2004 Author Report Share Posted March 20, 2004 Ugh. That sounds like "ouch". Can take any pictures of your nails ? I want to know if you are a good competitor. ( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Curufinwe Posted March 20, 2004 Report Share Posted March 20, 2004 Here is a picture of my nails ... just taken it with the digital camera ... the flash was a bit too strong, sorry ... anyway, that gives you an idea Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Curufinwe Posted March 20, 2004 Report Share Posted March 20, 2004 (let's make a nail-biter competition ! the one with the shortest nails, or the bloodiest nails wins !!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarkAngelBGE Posted March 20, 2004 Author Report Share Posted March 20, 2004 Wohoo.. you are nuts. No one will beat you, considering your perception is only 70% in your fingers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Curufinwe Posted March 20, 2004 Report Share Posted March 20, 2004 (That's why I suggested such thing ...But don't worry, I am careful now ... I just bite my skin until I reach the under-skin layer ... and, even if I can only feel by 70% (roughly, as what the doctors have told me), it still hurts at some point Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

akya Posted March 21, 2004 Report Share Posted March 21, 2004 it's not that bad...try taping (sp?) the end of your fingers it can help you realise when you are biting your fingers...(or try tobacco sauce, dip them in) ^^okay, maybe those are silly suggestions...but I try Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CodeOptimist Posted March 21, 2004 Report Share Posted March 21, 2004 I've never heard of taping the ends of your fingers, sounds like a good idea if I ever need to recommend something. I've definetly heard of hot sauce, etc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
last samurai Posted March 21, 2004 Report Share Posted March 21, 2004 i dont know if somebody has said this, but there is someting called no-bite that you can put on your nails and it tasts really bad, and if you bite your nails you get the flavor in your mouth.
