    Do you bite your nails? Do you do it when you're nervous or just out of habit?

    I'm a terrible nail-biter...It's gotten so bad that I bite the skin around my nails when there's no more nail left. It's a really horrible habit that I should try to break. It makes my fingers look horrible ;_____;
     
    I used to bite them all of the time. Somehow, I got out of that. I still have a bunch of other nervous habits that I tend to do all of the time, though.

    I bite mine a lot as well. I'm not quite that bad that I bite the skin around the nail as well, but my fingernails are in an awful state :(

    Another bad habit I need to learn to stop doing is cracking the joints of my fingers.
     
    I do it all the time when I'm nervous, even to the point I've broke quite a few nails (and sometimes drew blood when it broke)
     
    I do, usually associated with intense anxiety (I have a panic & anxiety disorder) or with exams. I swear when GCSE time came, I had no nails left and had three fingertips in plasters! I did 14 of them, though lol!

    But when I paint my fingernails, which I do quite a lot, I don't bite them at all, so I'm trying to stop biting them at the moment.
     
    I used to bite my nails. i takes quite a bit of willpower and probably some anti-biting varnish. I was glad when I stopped, until I realised that you can't play violin with long nails. :(
     
    I bite my nails all the time. There is never a day gone by when I bite my nails. I tend to break into the pink sometimes...

    I also used to play the bass, and like violinists, it is hard to play with nails even with slight overgrow. I never really got out of the habit.
     
    I used to a lot of the time, but thankfully I've managed to force myself to get out of the habit.
     
    I don't. I have other bad habits. XD;;

    My nails tend to get long enough to start breaking, and I hate it when that happens.
     
    Okay I admit it I bite my nails! Only sometimes though however It's still a bad habit of mine that I could break but sometimes can't I haven't bitten my nails for 3 days or so and I'm proud of it.
     
    I used to all the time, until when I was about 10 I noticed that my nails felt nice when they were't bitten XD Seriously, that's how I stopped doing it all the time. Although, every now and again, when I feel really stressed, I bite one of them without noticing...yuck. I have never bitten them to the point that they bleed or anything...my nails are nice at the moment.
     
    I used to bite my nails all of the time, regardless of what situation was present. It got to point where I started bleeding because I bit my skin under my nail. ;o;
    Don't do it much though, I've picked up a new hobby of chewing endless packs on gum..
     
    All of them. I hate the feeling of them being cut by artificial means. Last time any of mine were cut would be... four or five years ago?
    They're actually unnaturally short now, I'm not sure how they got to be like this, but I use my teeth for stuff like opening cans so it's no problem for me.
