i used to do that, when i bit my nails, now i just suck my nails.....they go really soft, but hey baby steps.maybe one day i might be able to avoid all kinds of nail-mouth interaction altogether!

I can't explain the discovery channel phenomenon. Maybe the TV and set top box (if you have one are on different channels). It could be worse though you could wake up to horror movies and before you wake the horror of the film is tapping into your dreams. Similar to Nightmare on Elm Street sagas.
I want to stop biting my nails but It's difficult. Someone recomended putting mustard on my fingers but that can't work as I like mustard.

theres a bunch of differant types of nailpolishes that help stop nail biting. My daughter has a garlic flavored and it seemed to work pretty well till she stopped using it. Theres also jalapeno and some other pepper kinds.

Ok cool. If I don't get my own nail biting problem under control, would you mind me possibly biting yours as you've got plenty. Forgive me for being forward, but you seem extremely friendly and I can assure you I have no ulterior motives other than biting your nails.

People don't always have ulterior motives surely.

So your nails are short do you cut them using scissors cos if you do then you have a problem also, except you use sharp implements.

yeah im just a cynic....

i keep them short with scissors because they piss me off when i play guitar if they long..

Oh that makes sense then. Long nails would impede your playing.
I don't know what you've experienced through others but I can be cynical with others but I give them a chance first then take it from there.
