Meet Harper, The Nail Biter
It seems that Harper has picked up on and adopted my worst habit.
I've been a nail biter for as long as I can remember.
I hate it and am constantly trying to quit.
I'd prefer to kick Harper's nail nibbling habit right away.
Suggestions?????
This is a strong Pritchard trait, almost all of us do it. I've found that you grow out of it sort of, but stress/boredom will cause a relapse. I actually asked a doctor about it and they said increasing your vitamin B-1 can help a lot. I've been doing that and haven't chewed my nails off in quite a long while (10 years). She also said that it is borderline OCD, depending on how severely and often you do it.
ReplyDeletetabacco sauce put it on the tip of her nails rub it in and i heard that works as well any sauce will work that she dosent like too. :)
ReplyDeleteThere is a nail polish called Mavala that makes your nails taste bad. I know people that have had great success using it.

LOVe your blog header! How fabulous is that picture! And your garage sale story....my mom and I went estate saling this weekend...and I got the most fabulous stuff, but spent $70 (yes. $70) dollars. yikes.
ReplyDeleteI started biting my nails when I was like 5 or 6 and didn't stop until I got braces (which prevented me from doing so) when I was 11. My mom tried everything, she even made me wear gloves! but the good news is that I stopped with braces and haven't gone back, hopefully you have better luck and get her to stop before too long!
