Great topic!
I used to bite my nails and break handles off mugs while washing them up (tip: hold the mug not the handle)
One bad habit I haven't shaken off yet is throwing out vegetable peelers with the peelings..

Not about bad habits
But I always fell for the wrong man, all my life I've told myself this date will be my prince
Sadly not and ii never seem to learn
Never met an honest kind man in my life
That makes me sad
I've been hurt so much by men I've given up trying
Is, that a bad habit

I stopped biting my nails by getting Invisalign @Mary_Scope It's near impossible to chew them so now I have long nails! It's a bit drastic though if you don't need your teeth straightening π

I used to be a nail biter too and managed to stop it with some of that nasty-tasting nail polish stuff. Now I don't bite the nails, I bite the skin around them instead which in some ways is worse π
Should probably get another bottle of that stuff in!

That made me giggle!! I do this with peelers too!
I replaced it with other bad habits π€£
I actually stopped during covid as I started thinking about germs and stuff πΆ

I never found any of the nasty-tasting stuff to be bad enough it never deterred me lol

Ha, it's always the way @Bibliokleptπ€£ I can understand how COVID was a good deterrant!!
Ha I have actually been thinking about invisaglin @Rachel_Scope, more so to push the teeth together but if it helps stop nail biting then it may be even more temptingπ€£
Sounds like I need to get my hands on a bottle of that nail polish @Rosie_Scope !!0 -
Well if you want to know more about it let me know @Mary_Scope! The worst thing about it is you can't just have a cup of tea when you want.

Haha @Biblioklept! You're obviously made of stronger stuff! Although I find you do get used to it over time.
Covid definitely helped me too, but while I'm in the house feeling safe away from outside germs, I'm just as terrible with the biting.
Anyone else have a terrible habit of 'out of sight, out of mind' when it comes to being tidy?
If it's away from sight behind a closed cupboard door, for me there are NO RULES. Shove it in, hope for the best. I've got very good at catching things as they inevitably fall out when I open the door π

@Rachel_Scope did you do the ones where they send you out an imprint kit and you send it back and they send the aligners or was it one you have to go to in person? I've been thinking about getting the at home version as although it's vain and no one sees me, the small misalignment I have in my top teeth reeeeeallly bugs me!!

Another bad habit of mine: Never using leftovers! I have the best will in the world to use them but never do, I'm not confident enough in how to reheat food safely and how best to store it or how long it lasts. I've tried looking it up online and always get overwhelmed and end up leaving it in the fridge until it quite obviously needs binning!!

Oooooh that's a good one @Rosie_Scope!!! Whats worse is, once it's out of sight I forget it ever existed and will end up with multiples of the same thing all
shovedtidied in various different places!!0 -
@Biblioklept, I've done it through a local dentist. I completely get it. Everyone says "oh your teeth are fine!" but they're not to me and I have to see them everyday π I'd recommend them but they can be difficult to take out at first and as I said earlier, you have to take them out for a cup of tea so my tea consumption has decreased considerably!

I don't really drink tea or hot drinks but I drink sooooooooo much water, do you need to take them out for any food or drink or is water fine @Rachel_Scope?? How long do you think you'll have to have them?

Oh yes. Lost many a thing by putting it in a 'safe place' @Biblioklept. A 'safe place' being somewhere in the back of a cupboard with a hundred other things that I also needed to put in a 'safe place' π
