Subject: Nail Bitting
Message: I have been bitting my nails forever, and I really want to stop. I have hang nails and my nails are always hurting. The only time I don't bite them is when I have fake nails on, but that's not an option anymore because of cheerleading. Does anyone have any ideas on how to stop nail bitting?

Message: Well Stephanie, as ironic as this is I had the exact same problem. I had this horrible habit of biting my nails and I put on fake nails, which seemed to work-until of course cheerleading tryouts(more ironic). Once I had made the team I had to take off the fake nails, and well back came the bad habit. But what I found worked for me was chewing TONS gum insted of nails, and also wearing clear nail polish.----Stephanie(still more ironic)

Message: I am almost thirty and used to bite my nails
constantly. I recently discovered a mult-use
product, one of the uses was a nail soak.
Well, they have not marketed the product as a
"cure" for nail biting, which is what I am
looking to do. I stopped biting my nails after
two treatments, and have not bitten them
since. (over 6 mos) A friend of mine tried it,
after one treatment, no longer bites her nails
(going on a few weeks) The product is a fruit
extract, and all you do is soak your hands in a
dilute soln for 15 minutes. Its cost is pennies
per treatment. I need some volunteers to try it
to see if it works or if its just me. Are you
willing?

Message: I have been biting my nails for as long as I can remember. I am now 25 years old and have a baby girl. I think I am way to old for this BAD habit and I don't want my daughter to start this up too. I have had fake nails in the past and they do work great for me. I don't pick at them or break them. But I don't like the continueing cost, up keep, and they just aren't healthy for my nails(neither is biting them). I will try any thing once......please help me! Dana
