quit biting years ago, shit sucks too hard when you peel too far down and you get that fucking sharp stingy pain and then gotta be extra careful not to touch the fleshy part on anything.I still bite and rip my toe nails off though
Me, I have an advanced nailbiting technique. Never bite that low, it's just going to be unpleasant, learned this from experience. I eat all of my cuticles and nails(toes included) and my hands look completely normal for the most part.

Why does that turn me on, are u qt?
I can only quit temporarily, stress brings it back
Left ring finger is the pariah for some reason and I can bandage it if it gets too bad
its nice to carry around these little reminders in case i ever start to think that i'm in control of my anxiety

Let me get serious about this technique for a second because I feel like nailbiting is one of the few things I'm good at. I usually run my nails across the edge of my teeth to give it shape and begin peeling it from my finger. I bite carefully in successions to prevent the nail from being misshappen. I then run my teeth down to my cuticles and use a cuticle cutter to perfect it. Usually with my toes I just hunk chunks of cuticle and overgrown nail with the cutter and eat them. I primarily do it to eat the skin/nails and not exactly out of anxiety. There's just really no feeling better than locking myself into my bathroom and eating all my cuticles and nails. I just wish they grew faster sometimes. I usually like to "harvest" a my nails and cuticles by playing with them until they grow long enough to eat.

I usually do it when I'm stressed out.
I'm gonna stop fucking doing it because it's stupid.
when there is no nail left, I go for the finger skin, and then I star biting my lips.
It's like I must always be biting

Used to bite my nails all the way down to where it hurts for years. Have successfully stopped biting for over 3 weeks now. I tried to end it many times before, but everytime my nails got to a certain length it looked too delicious to not start biting again.
This time I bought some thing called BiteX. A nail polish thats super bitter and takes the fun out of biting my nails. Has helped a lot to get through the first 2 weeks and now I dont even neee it anymore.
I am healed :')
I cannot remember a time when I did not chew my nails. I fucking hate it and would love to kick it, I kicked smoking and drinking but I can't seem to kick nail biting.
I've tried all the gastly potions that are meant to make your nails taste awful, but desu lad senpai i found most of them pretty tasty.
That's all you guys got? Been biting my nails for as long as I can remember.
I don't bite my nails, but I pick my cuticles.
Disgusting.
I used to bite my nails until someone pointed it out, then I literally just fucking stopped because I'm not some pathetic nerd wageslave cyborg.
I resumed biting my nails later on simply because it is more efficient than trimming - which is some bitch shit waste of time for normalshit faggots

Funny thread, actually bitten nails are among the first sperg-level characteristics I look for when targeting a new chick, allows me to avoid all the introverted, depressed, anxious fucks.
And for the marginal amount of people for which it isn't stress related it's still fucking disgusting, win win for me.
