Habits you recently stopped?

i stopped eating out of boredom. every time i'm about to eat i ask myself: "am i REALLY hungry?" and that does the trick.

i have that problem too, it seems to happen the most when i get confused. people have noticed it before and started laughing.

 

Ugh >.< I have that really bad. The OCD thing. I saw my friend who had something like it and the next day I couldn't stop having that problem. Someone would tap my shoulder and I would demand they tap the other.

 

I wish that I could stop biting my nails. It's getting to be really bad; they bleed and hurt for days if I get bad with it. It's not even from stress -- I've been doing it as long as I could remember. I'd also like to stop doodling in my notebooks. I've stopped coloring everything with highlighter (i enjoy the neon colors), but I always draw caricatures of Star Wars characters in the margins...
​

 

Biting my nails. i put nail polish on so that i wouldnt ruin it.

 

Would it be a habit if I write a lot about random things I think about? Just because I'm bored and I feel like if I write it down I can better organize my thoughts. D:

 

Probably. But it might not be a bad one. I talk about everything I think out loud, even if there is no one around.

 

Biting my nails. I'm also currently trying to break the habit of cussing so much

 

I've been trying to stop bouncing my legs when I sit.
It's just so hard... :(

 

I need to stop doodlin on my papers too
and poppin/crackin my joints
even though it makes me feel less tense, crackin knuckles weakens the grip
and i busted my hand when i was little so i can constantly crack them
i'm right handed but my right hand is weaker then my left hand because the grip is weaker..

 

I dont think I've had necessarily physical bad habits...(like biting my nails and such)

But I used to always stay late after school and get home at like...8 or 9...(my parents would get really pissed off) on a daily basis, and ever since Junior year began, that habit has gone out the window.

 

Why did you stay after school? Personal reason, or was it just to avoid home? lol

 

It wasnt even drugs or home or anything like that.

I just liked being with my friends (I was usually at their house 'till 8) playing videogames. =P Really lame reason, but I can be extremely lazy sometimes...I guess thats a habit I need to kick as well.

 

Biting my nails. DX

I stopped a few months ago because, well I bite my nails when I'm stessed out or when I'm in deep thought, but I started biting my nails again a few weeks ago. It's an annoying habit since I want to let my nails grow, plus my parents get mad at me when they see me picking at my nails.

It may sound a little odd but I crack my fingers and my back. Whenever I'm finished typing or writing something long, I crack my fingers. And whenever I've been sitting down for too long, I sit up straight and turn my upper body, letting me crack my back. I just did it right now. XDD My mom tells me it's bad for my neck but I still do it. >> I need to stop, though. D:​

 

none, it's hard and saddening, I do wanna stop cracking but it makes me feel better​

 

I used to bite my pencil or pen when I was younger but I outgrew it somehow.

 

I've stopped doing this goofy smile. When I'm onstage, whether it's with my band, or with my school's orchestra, I always have a really goofy smile on my face while I'm playing. I've tried really hard to stop lately because it makes me look really stupid.

 

I have stopped speaking loudly.
I have a loud voice, and when I get excited, it gets louder and louder and louder... My friends would have sooner or later become deaf.
Well, I started to speak normally, preventing my voice from rising. Now the habit is completely gone.

 

I have a habit of going on the comp. too much.. i have tried to stop.. BUT I CAN'T STOP!!

 

I have the same problem. When I was off school because of a bad cough and a sore throath, I was on the computer for 12 and a half hours,
I also post in different Forums for several hours every day.

Sadly, that's a habit I won't stop for a long time.

 

I'm trying to stop humming/singing all the time, and I recently stopped chewing my nails.
