Nail biting is related to skin picking and hair pulling. These behaviors are labeled as Obsessive-Compulsive Disorders. Nail nibblers keep their hands behind their backs or in their pockets. Nail biters often feel social humiliation and experience out-of-control feelings at times. On occasions they may question why they are not able to stop biting and they frequently query regardless of whether or not they are sane.
Biting regularly happens when people are in one of two modes. Some nail biters do it in an automated way, as if they're in a altered state and not especially pondering what they are doing. It's frequently when they're engrossed in some other activity at the exact same time such as speaking on the phone or watching Television, for example. For others, their main activity at the time is the particular picking or biting, and they'll customarily interrupt their other activities to become involved in it.
There is a powerful commonality seen in the various purposes behind nail biting, skin picking and hair pulling. At a very basic level, these symptoms satisfy an urge. Many report a wild compulsion to do them. Pulling, picking or biting also appears to deliver a pleasurable or relaxed sensation.
When sufferers feel stressed, doing these things has a kind of relaxing effect on their nervous systems and reduces levels of kick. On the other hand, when they are bored or inactive, they appear to supply a required level of kick to the nerve system. This could account for why so many people who detest doing them find it so hard to give up these behaviours. It simply "feels good" at the time regardless of everything else.
Even though you have more than one of these Problems, do not give in on yourself. These symptoms can be overcome if you have the incentive. More significant is learning how to "de-stigmatize" yourself. You aren't mad, helpless, morally feeble or completely beyond control, although you'll feel just like you are at times. When you realize you're simply a person who simply happens to have an awful habit, you can make some serious progress.
Skin picking and nail biting are chronic issues, so there's not now a "cure" but you'll be able to find a recovery if you are happy to work at it. Hypnosis for nail biting is composed of 3 parts.
Care For Nail Biting
First nail biting is a nervous habit. So the first part of the care is to teach the nail biter the best way to be more relaxed at every point. To that end, I have found that normal hypnosis, Ericksonian hypnosis, and NLP techniques are usually quite effective. That is due to the fact that the basis of hypnosis is relaxation. The biter can begin to learn to apply 1 or 2 different strategies to increase both the relaxed state, as well as his/her general feeling of relaxation and well-being.
The second part teaches the biter awareness of this comatose habit. Recommendations are given to the comatose mind to make the consciousness aware that you are about to bite your nails. Then you get to consciously choose whether or not you're going to bite them.
There additionally are a number of other potent hypnosis and NLP techniques. For example we will be able to help the client to line up an "Anchor" or trigger so that he/she'll temporarily psychologically step outside of him/herself. This is an effective strategy that will effectively relieve the compulsion.
The 3rd part of the hypnotherapy is to get rid of the compulsion to bite. There are hypnotic methodologies that truly programme the customer with a compulsion to not bite.
With this behavior, being practical is very important. First, you have practiced the unwelcome behavior hundreds or even thousands of times. It is critical to acknowledge that the need to bite your nails may not be overcome in one or two days.
Second, you are fighting the indisputable fact that biting your nails feels good, and it offers lots of short-term satisfaction and either kick or relaxing feelings. It can take time to overcome, but it will be worthwhile. My experience has shown a number of methods to be very effective!
