Ok. Name a silly / stupid habit that you have. Or name a habit that you have that you like the break.
I have OCD pretty bad, so I have a bunch of habits i would love to change.
Using computer games to avoid facing responsibility.
Lol..yep.
I have lots of bad habits but the one that irks me most is my impatient inability to let a person finish what they are saying before I interject my opinion or information. I try to control it but not always successful at it.
When I’m eating a meal, I always eat one thing at a time. Like - finish the vegetables (all the potatoes, then all the green beans, whatever), then start the meat. One of my friends pointed it out when we were in college, I had never noticed it before but now it makes me self-conscious when people notice!
New too..I am no longer the only non- believer that eats their meal in compartmentalized rotation. Yay!
Nail-biting I'd like to quit
I quit last summer when my dentist told me that it was causing my gingivitis/gum recession... had terrible tooth pain in one area, turned out I always bit my nails in the exact same spot and had flattened the tooth!
@Jenelle I've caught infections in my nail beds, I've permanently damaged my nail matrix on almost all my fingers, and I still can't stop. I've chewed through nailpolish.
It's actually not for nervous anxiety or anything. I have insanely flimsy nails and they get caught or I bend my finger wrong or the wind hits it, and it chips. That drives me insane so I bite the rest off, but then it's jagged and oh no I am not at a place with a file around so I chew until it's smooth
@LadyAlyxandrea Yikes, ha! I keep mine super short now, and as nicely manicured as possible but with or without polish my nails look like an eight-year-old’s! Dentist said it was as bad as teeth grinding, and man did it hurt for like a month!
I raise my pinky finger when I drink out of cups or bottles.
Same. Looks a bit funny with a pint of beer.
I count the letters in words. Been doing it since I was a young boy.
