When trying to combat our nail biting habit, we need practical tips that can be easily applied without having to put in much effort. Whether we bite them because of anxiety, anger or boredom, we do it unconsciously. Ignorance of something makes 'war' difficult.
Here are 10 ways you can solve this problem:
1. Cut as much as you can .
Always keep the nail clipper close. The moment you notice that the nails have grown as if very little, trim them. In short, they are not so pleasant to bite.
2. Wear gloves or bandage the upper part of the fingers.
Nail bandaging will be a constant reminder that you should not bite. Gloves are also great when you are at home because you will not need to change the bandage constantly.
3. Find activities to keep your fingers busy.
This can vary from person to person. We all like different things, so it’s good to think about using something like a defense mechanism. Draw, embroider, hold hands together, pocket, write or press a pen.
4. Keep your mouth busy as well.
You will see that after a while, the impulse to bite your nails will go away. Start chewing gum and eating hard candy. You can also hold a water bottle nearby and take a sip whenever you think about nails.
5. Bitter nail polish.
Kur e aplikoni atë, sigurohuni që të mbuloni të gjithë sipërfaqen e thonjve së bashku me lëkurën përreth. Shija e tmerrshme do t'jua shpifë. Kthejeni këtë në zakon duke e aplikuar manikyrin çdo mëngjes.
6. Hidratoni duart.
Dy në një! Kur të tundoheni për të kafshuar thonjtë nuk do e bëni më për shkak të hidratuesit, i cili njëkohësisht jua mban edhe lëkrën e duarve të butë.
7. Mbani afër një limë thonjsh.
Merrni disa lima dhe vendosini rreth shtëpisë, në xhep dhe në çantën tuaj. Në këtë mënyrë, ju nuk do të keni një justifikim për të kafshuar thonjtë.
8. Vendosni një shirit gome në kyçin e dorës dhe përqendrohuni në të.
Kjodo të ndihmojë në parandalimin e tundimit. Kështu që kur ngrini krahun për të kafshuar thonjtë, filloni të luani me shiritin e gomës.
9. Përdorni telefonin për të mbajtur gishtat e zënë.
Now the phone can become your best friend. But since we spend our free time navigating social media, one of the hands is often free, which becomes a target for the bite. Download some games that require the use of 2 hands.
10. Use different methods that remind you not to do the action.
Fill the house with notes, so when you look up, left or right, you remember you have to put your hands down. You can also change the background on the phone with a note or photo that will keep you motivated.
