    I used to bite my nails, and the way I finally stopped is I started painting them. I liked the way they looked so much when they were painted that I wouldn't bite them because I didn't want to wreck them (plus nail polish is pretty gross to bite off because it tastes bad and it gets in your mouth). If you're into doing that you should try it, it might work for you! Otherwise they have that weird clear polish you can get at drugstores that tastes bad on purpose to make you stop biting your nails, or set a goal for yourself, if you go a certain amount of time without biting them you'll reward yourself, and then keep that up until you've officially stopped the habit. I hope this helped!

    It takes time! But its really weird because my nails seem like they grow faster when I put them a hot/warm water. Idk if this will work for you.
