    I have no finger nails. The powerful blast from a particularly potent Molotov cocktail blew them clean off my fingers.

    wooow...someone needs to do a psychological experiment for this. I know ppl think its cuz you're nervous but i catch myself doing it all the time when I'm perfectly calm o.0

    Once you start biting, it'll be really hard to stop. Luckily my nail biting habit is no more...for now.

    so far the only way i've been able to stop is to clip them to a sharp poinnt, so it hurts when i try to bite them. its worked for about 2 months now

    I try to stop but it happens naturally when I'm in the state in which I don't realize I am doing it.

    I started when I was really young and continued til I was about 20. I still bite the skin around my nails but that's yucky too, considering all the germs and grossness under fingernails and on hands. Its a bad habit and I'm glad I stopped. I never knew how nice my nails were when they grow

    No, l am a damn good cook and I like my nails to look nice...they are there to protect the sensitive tips of your fingers.

    I just had a relapse after a whole year....I used to do it 24/7, but the willed myself to stop. I've done pretty well- only three relapses in about three years. I don't know why it's so hard to resist- I read that nail biters just want everything to be even and under control. I'd say thi is true!

    No, no! It creeps me out to no avail. I get this vibrating/tweaking sharp pain in my teeth and jaw. It's horrible!

    Not anymore: No teeth. It takes upper and lower teeth to accomplish this: The lower ones are still there, ...but ... .
