When im nervous/embarrassed or when my face gets red (often), I dig my fingernail into my hand until it feels numb. I can't help it, its like when a person bites they're nails. Is they re other ways to calm myself down when im nervous/embarrassed instead of doing this.? Is this bad for me like will it cause any damage to my hand.?

Actually, you have instinctively found one of the body's calming pressure points. To use it more effectively than you are doing, use the thumb of one hand to rub circles or ovals back and forth on the palm of the other hand and the fatty pad of the thumb. Do this as long as you need to, without harm. You won't be digging, but massaging. You can switch hands. Try it, you'll like it.Health Question & Answer
Apparently it is more than a "bad habit", you have low self worth. There is a problem inside, not outside. Something or somebody has caused you to feel underneath others. You need to write down somethings in your life that has made you feel insuperior to others. I would strongly suggest counciling or if not that read some books from the library on the topic and little by little you will come out of this. Take care now sweetie!Health Question & Answer
