I used to bite my nails until the age of 15. My friend's mum suggested putting plasters over each and every one of my nails until I stopped getting the urge to bite them. It was really difficult and embarrassing having to wear the bandages all the time, but ultimately it provided the motivation I needed, and within a month or so I had stopped. I did have a couple relapses but I just repeated taping my nails and made myself keep them taped for longer each time. In the end it worked. Now, no more plasters and 10 beautiful nails.
Is it normal to bite your nails?
