Hey Pandas What Bad Habit Have You Managed To Quit Closed

How did you kick the habit? Which method(s) do you recommend others try in order to kick the same habit?

This post may include affiliate links. #1 I managed to quit ice after almost 3 years on it!!

Almost 20 years later and I’ve had it maybe twice but still not addicted!

Almost 10 years now and not tried any drugs Report Final score: 4points Claire Nichols POST #2 Biting my nails and the skin around them.

It was when I'd be biting them and they slipped on my teeth and I'd scratch my gums, and my teeth would hit each other at a weird angle. I was scared I'd break or lose a tooth, or severely slice my gums that did it for me, but not completely.
I got really into nail art and binged on nail tech videos.

I wanted nails that were longer and nicer looking. This started a nail care and decorating hobby. I bought glue-on nails so I couldn't bite my natural ones.

I didn't like what the glue was doing to my natural nail plate and when I started caring for them they didn't get all jagged and the insatiable desired to pick and bite was gone.
I've relapsed a couple times but then I make myself use clippers and files to fix the ones that break. Report Final score: 4points MyOpinionHasBeenServed POST #3 The classic here. I stopped smoking after approx.

16 years.
I stopped nail-biting, too.
I'm 31 now and happy as can be.
Still highly addicted to coffee and also picking my nose frequently, but hey, I'm not aiming to be perfect.

Title Update Kitsune Nocturne Follow Unfollow Kitsune Nocturne Author, Community member I love books. I'm passionate about stories. I love plants and animals.

I prefer my sweets to be a little less sweet than most. I have way too many hobbies, and am always looking to add more. I do yoga, make homemade soaps, bake, knit, sew, sketch, paint, embroider, sing, read, write, play videogames, enjoy jigsaw puzzles, grow houseplants, have a small garden, and have two cats.

I'm gender fluid and couldn't care less how you choose to refer to me. I'm pescetarian, but my day-to-day diet looks more like a vegetarian.

I am a firm believer of pairing almond cookies with cold, black tea.

POST Mark Berry Mark Berry Community Member • points posts comments upvotes FollowUnfollow 9 months ago Smoking. Picked it up in college. Cut back and ramped up again over the years, blaming outside events for needing a drag.

Thing is, it really was a drag. I hid it from others. Smoked in various parking lots to and from work or if I had to go to the store.

I was a grown man sneaking like a misbehaving child. I'm 53 and quit cold turkey about 2 months ago.

No fan fair nor proclamation, just a commitment to myself. And that's what you need most to quit. 1 1point reply POST Mark Berry Mark Berry Community Member • points posts comments upvotes FollowUnfollow 9 months ago Smoking.
