    I have the same problem, except I’ll sometimes end up chewing them so much that one finger will bleed in-between the finger and nail on the side. In fact, I’m pretty sure I have dried blood under one of my fingernails.

      I used be a an absolute fiend for biting my nails. What fixed it was buying a little Swiss army knife nail set. It’s got a wee little nail clippers and file. It fulfilled the need for nervous movement.

      Friend of mine solved this by using a sort of nail polish that tastes super bitter. Got her to keep her fingers out of her mouth.

        My parents got me one of those when I was a kid. It didn’t help me at all, back then at least :(

        Glad it worked for her though!
