Answer 5

i had the same problem! i used to bite my nails non stop, it was bad, i tried a few things such as chewing gum, and one time i got my nails done really nice, and it encouraged me not to bite my nails anymore, so they could keep looking nice, i now have medium nails, and i dont bite them anymore, just pick a fun color, and design and try to keep it that way, having nicely done nails will encourage you to keep them that way, hope it helps=]

Answer 8

Paint them - every time you look at them it should remind you not to bite them, because you don't want to eat nail polish haha. If that doesn't work, you could always get gel or acrylic nails because you can't bite those.
