I was just thinking about the nervous habits that I have that are actually really self-destructive.
Whenever I get stressed, worried or exhausted, I always end up engaging in really negative behaviours. With me it's biting my nails mainly. That's what brought this to my attention. Last night I have bitten and picked at them so much that today it's unbearably painful, yet at the time I couldn't feel a thing and just kept doing it. I also get eczema at times of stress, and I tend towards overeating. All these things are so unhealthy for me and I get really embarrassed about them because they're really obvious to everyone round you and people can tell how you're feeling from how you look. I almost don't even want to share them here now I've typed this out :sad:
Does anyone else have any nervous habits like this or any hints on how to stop these negative behaviours?
