Habits you recently stopped?

Recently I've been trying to stop biting my nails. It's a tricky thing to stop after doing it for 6 years.

What are some habits you've stopped or are trying to? How are you managing to do so? :]

 

i've stopped smokin cigerrettes (again lol) and cut down on smokin...other things.
but now i chew gum like crazy, i'm tryin to cut down on that haha

 

I used to have a really bad habit of bouncing my knee up and down, but I don't do it anymore. Now I just cross my legs so I don't do it in class. :3

 

Biting my finger nails. I need them for when I play classical guitar. And since I don't have one with nylon strings, it hurts like a ***** to play with steel strings. I've gone cold turkey.

 

To save myself from biting my nails, I simply cut them short so there's nothing to chew there.

Either that, or painted nail polish on them, that would stop me :D

 

Nail biting. I usually do it out of boredom, but was actually easy for me to stop.

 

I wish I could stop biting my nails. I HAD stopped but then I had a **** load of coursework to do, bai bai nails.

The main habit I have stopped is that I used to have to do everything equally, like if I tapped my right leg with my hand I then had to tap my left leg too o_O

I don't know how I stopped, I just one day stopped.

Habits are weird things for me, if I want to stop them I stop them and normally I have no problem in keeping them stopped. My nails are the one thing that always beats me.

 

I don't have habits like that...Uhm...
I stopped throwing my hat on everyday before school.

It's a habit for me, though.
Even if my hair is like in a clip or something I just...Try and shove the hat on. D: I don't know why.

My mommy says it's a serious problem but I don't think so xP
I stopped anyways.

​

 

I've finally stopped my old nervous twitch, I used to rub my nose with the back of my hand when my nerves got me. Now all I have to do is get rid of this pesky drummers twitch.

 

Peh, I used to have this habit where I would bite my right fourth finger at points where I was nervous(It's because there's a part where the skin is inflamed). I just stopped doing it one day. Nothing necessarily spontaneous,it just happened. As did all my other habits over time.

 

I recently have to stop talking during classes. It's kinda weird, since I am in college, but I can't seem to help chiming into a debate, no matter if my opinion helps or not. I have been informed of this by several teachers and students.

 

I recently stopped sleeping with my Mouth Open
and now..
I am trying to stop cracking my Fingers
:3​

 

I used to eat when I got angry,but I am almos never in a good mood.So,over the past year,I've stopped eating.But I didn't eat so much I put on weight.Just,over ate.Right now I'm trying to get in of the habit of saving money.I spend too much.I buy buy buy,I'm a video game/manga shopaholic.I need to slow down.My parents keep telling me to save my money.And I go,I'm trying I'm trying but it's hard.But I don't even think that's much of a habit.

 

a bad habit ive recently broke... id say my ex boyfriend... yay :D

 

I used to bounce my leg without really realizing it, but I somehow got that to stop. Come to think of it...I have no idea when I really ended that habit. Still, I'm glad I did, because this other boy in my class does it like crazy and it's so annoying.

 

I still bite my nails just out of sheer habit xD I try to stop, but once I bite one tiny bit I feel like I have to bite more to make it even. Then there's none left >_>

I also bounce my leg, usually the right. Sometimes it gets very severe and loud and I get told off for it by my friends and family xD The problem is, I don't notice that I'm doing it =/

Another thing I do that isn't likely to stop is humming in my sleep. I do it sometimes and usually very loudly xD Apparently it sounds like I'm in pain o_o Unfortunately, it isn't something I can just decide I'm not going to do any more =/

 

I should probably look into quitting my habit of talking to myself since I imagine it's kind of creepy.

 

Drawing in my notebooks in school ;___;
It had gotten worse lately ;_; you could hardly read the notes x'3
But I managed to get through a whoole math class without drawing anything! >: D *triumph*!

(..Nothing...But a tiiny shadow eating a tiiiny heart ;_; )

 

I do that too.

Though more often I doodle on my desk and just erase it afterwards.

 

Yea, I have that problem too, but it happens cause I live alone, and have no one to mull over ideas with. I'm kind of developing a secondary personality that, while it's not schizophrenia, it helps me find the flaws in my arguments. It's kind of like an inner voice that says "No, that's not right" "No, that's not it either". If I had a roommate, it would be him saying that, but since I don't, I pretty much have to talk to myself. I also talk to myself to flesh out fantasy storylines, but then I don't talk back.

I know, I know, I'm kinda crazy. But I try to make sure that I'm not too crazy.
