Bad habit? Bust it before BTS!

 
I have picked my nose forever, but now that I’m going into seventh grade, I know I need to stop. Only problem? I can’t! What can I do to ditch this disgusting habit?

 

While you might have started pickin’ your nose way-back-when to see exactly what was lurking up there, by now you’re only doing it as a nervous habit. Brava to you for wanting to drop it!

 

The best way to bust this baddie is to keep your hands busy 24/7. Whether you’re snapping a rubber band at your wrist or folding scrap paper into cranes, you need to focus that nervous energy somewhere other than your nose. I know it stinks to be called out on bad behavior, but being embarrassed can make your subconscious want to ditch bad habits. Ask you friends and family to tell you to knock it off when they catch you picking…and work out a subtle sign for when you’re in public, okay?

 

Good luck, girlie!

Mod mod mod!!!!! i need to figure out how to go to sleep earlier naturally im taking super snooze to get tired at night i have been noticing this since after 3rd grade christmas break is there a way to get tired naturally?




Hey girl! 

The best thing to do is turn off the tv, computer, and mp3 player before you go to sleep and do something that relaxes you - try reading or showering. If you start going to upstairs to sleep 5 minutes earlier every week, you will naturally get more tired over time. xoxox

MOD! MOD! MOD!
For a LONG time i have had a lot of trouble sleeping. Like to the point where I would wake my parents up and tell them i couldn't sleep. I don't know if it is eating habits or if there really is something wrong because if i cant sleep and i have school the next day, i end up on my parents floor. im really embarrassed and my back hurts. So help me!!!!!!!!!!!

mod mod mod.... so just a few days ago my hand started hurting. It is a strange pain right in between my index finger and my thumb in my right hand. (thankfully i'm ambedextrious) it is also swollen. When I was younger starting at age 4 up until I was 9, my dad would come up to me, take my hand in his, and pop my knuckles. I did tell him to stop but he did it anyways. I have finally broke the habit and it's been three years. Some people tell me that if you pop your knuckles you can get arthritis. Other people have told me it's a wives' tale. I don't think it's arthritis, because I haven't popped my knuckels for 3 or 4 years and it's only one hand. But if not arthritis... then what? Either way I'm worried. Thanks Banana____

 

 

Hey girl. I'm not a doc, so I can't be sure what is going on with you. From I everything I've heard I would say that knuckle cracking leading to arthritis is a wives tale. I'm pretty sure you don't have arthritis, but you should see a doc to figure out what is going on.
