There's someone in the course has managed to not be on time once in the last 2 weeks. It's annoying the hell out of me that I'm getting in every day, but one person puts more effort into coming up with excuses.

I feel you there. I work with people who think showing up precisely as their shift starts is acceptable. No, no it is not.

Had a student placement in work with us like that few years ago. Got him in Kris Kindle, so got him an alarm clock.

I bite my fingers. All the time.
It hurts. It hurts especially much now.

I bite when I'm stressed, upset, happy, sad, excited, hungry, bored...... then they bleed and I bite some more.

Owie!

Awww sorry to hear Chuckles......could you wear gloves to prevent this (let your fingers recover) or maybe plasters to break the cycle??;)

Dip your fingers in liquid chocolate- then lick. Much better than biting.

*in some cases, above advice may cause tummy, thighs and hips to expand*:P

*hugs* lady c I know there's a special type of nail varnish for your fingernails to try and help, as the taste puts you off it, maybe worth trying?

Gloves may be the best. I use plasters every so often, but as soon as you wash your hands they get all icky :rolleyes: *chuckle:

Dexter.... wouldn't that ADD to the problem? :P:pac:
If they taste good I'd be biting more :cool:

That's extremely gross - so maybe :)
Thanks, ATC I don't bite the nails though, but the area around the nails may also be contaminated by said nail varnish. Worth a try :cool:

ahh ok, not a problem :cool: see how it goes anyway

Hope you're not in much pain, LC. I do too at times, especially the corner tips.

i have similar issue not with biting fingers but picking whatever i can find o y skin and then some more when im extra spec anxious. i noticed pain does feel good in those moments lol and the battle field that's left behind..
i know it would heal in few days but yea, i would love not to be doing it to myself....
not sure if that does any help LC....

Biting your nails is a sign of perfectionism


Just gonna leave that little gem of wisdom there.

Lady Chuckles

Is perfectionism good or bad? And what about chewing on your fingertips and not the nails? :pac:

cgh

chewing nails or fingertips is real bad.

I stopped biting my nails a few weeks back. The bastards are growing like mad now though. I've gotten fond of using a nail file now.

I stopped biting mine about 2 years ago and painting them is so much fun now!

cgh

I stopped biting mine years ago.
more so because where i was working was just pure filthy.

I totally regret posting that now...... 'cos this is making me feel really uncomfortable.

Anyone else up for a brood? Anyone? Anyone at all?? :p

x Purple Pawprints x

Oh sorry Chuckles, didn't mean to make you feel that way.

Solitaire

Didn't you get the email PP? We're supposed to support each other in here rather than making everyone brood more

Anyways.... *hugs/brohugs for whomever needs them*

I did apologise.

I love the way my veterinary nursing degree counts for f**k all in this house. My dad thinks shouting at the dog to "stop f**kin' whinging" is going to make him stop crying. The professional opinion of his own daughter apparently means nothing because he's had dogs his whole life. I wasn't aware that this fact means that you know better than the veterinary profession. To make it worse my Mam woke him up rather than let me try to get the dog settled. Cheers for the vote of confidence, family. I feel wonderful now.

ARRRRRRRGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHH

Today I think that maybe I could forgive him, and maybe take him back, but I don't know. Today is just a confusing day really.

So. Someone is starting a course in the place I'm in. She recognised me from somewhere, but I had no idea how. Turns out she's the daughter of the woman directly involved in probably the worst part of my life, a time that screwed me up worse than anything else.
