What are your bad habits?

Click my teeth together, bite my nails (they grow back superfast so they're still really long, so no issue there), I procrastinate, I can't save money, I hoard, I'm very anal and I overthink everything..

I had to go to cognitive behaviour therapy for my panic attacks, insomnia, and OCD, so I'm a little better now. Back in the day, I have to bump into things twice, touch every hot surface I came across, line everything up into parallel lines, and chew a number of times equivalent to either 8, 16 or 32.

For me it's:

- Staying up too late
- Cracking knuckles
- Eating muffins for breakfast every day. I can't help myself! Mrs. Fields is like right outside of the gate I come through when exiting my morning train lol... Evil!
- Shopping too much and splurging on expensive things. I don't know how to save money

- Not paying my bills on time
- Procrastinating...

I'm sure there are more but I don't want to think about it haha.

Like a lot of you... I crack my knuckles

When I'm stressed, my skin is itchy and sometimes I just can't stop scratching it!!!
My bf made me realize that I lick my knives when we're eating o_0, I tried to stop, I CAN'T!
I eat too much, for watever reasons.

my worst habit is picking at the skin on my hand...i don't even mean just near the nails, it's all down my fingers....the whole palm of my hand is scarred and red from over 10 years of this...it's embarrassing and only recently has my newest doctor basically told me i probably have ocd, and that this is similar to cutting myself...i'm on a new medication right now that will *hopefully* help, but whenever i get stressed or nervous, even if i TRY not to, i still end up doing it...i've never come across anyone else with this problem though.

I have a serious addiction to chocolate, I'm actually sitting here now with cravings but I only have $1 in my wallet, I don't get money till tomorrow and its 11:26pm.

I pick at any bump, I have acne scars because I can't help but pick at any pimple/blackhead I get. It's horrible because I always had nice skin and I'm left with scars.

I used to pull out my hair from a particular spot just because i liked the feeling :S i kinda left myself with a tiny bald patch, but i soon stopped because of the fear of being bald lol so it wasn't like taking over my life or anything thank God but i did find it hard to stop. Now the hairs have grown back! yay! althought not to their full length.

I sometimes chew at the inside edge of my lips and before I know it, they're seeping blood. I'm getting better at that one... but in the wintertime when they're feeling dry and chapped, it's hard not to do it without even realizing.

I have OCD when it comes to things not feeling smooth. I have to pick at it... whether it's a little bump on fabric, a blemish, a little tiny glob of plastic on the edge of the left handle of my elliptical machine (I'm seriously gonna take a nail file to it!), peeling sunburn, etc.

Cursing is the only other bad one, though I'm good at filtering it around parents and work... I really need to cut back all around.

I was cracking my nose, but stopped once I learned I could get a deviated septum. Ouch.

Biting my lips is the worse thing ever!!! They always have white spots on them from me biting them.

Also, sweezing my pores. Gross. I know

I talk so there aren't any uncomfortable silences. I cannot stand it if there is uncomfortable silence.


Oh yes, here too!!! The teeth grinding is bad. I like floss my teeth just to scratch at my gums. Sounds wierd. I also chew the indes of my mouth. Bluhhh!

Oh I'm also addicted to the internet, hence I'm on here at 3:46am lol. I have depression and it always affects me at night so I'm always on late, trying to avoid the feelings.

I'm a big procrastinater too.

I chew the skin off my lips too!
And I also constantly peel the skin off my fingers. Especially on my thumb. It looks gross, but I can't stop.
I keep the songs the same number of playcounts on my Itunes for each album. If I don't finish listening to the album, I will click through the songs to make sure the entire album is on the same play-count. That is my craziest form of OCD.
