I don't just nibble on them, I gnaw the plastic off them. It's really addictive, and I have no idea how to stop. What should I do? :cry:

Pretend that each time you chew on a pen, a kitten dies.

Or if you are a dig person, a puppy.

Chew on one until you reach the ink. It's like sticking a needle into a wall outlet. You won't learn to stop until you do it.

Write with pencils, they are not as fun to chew on. I like to chew on my pens to, it's worth it.

I think you have to control yourself of doing this and avoid chewing on non-foods.

In all seriousness, substitute a toothpick, either flat or round (your choice).

I did it as well.

Me 5. I suspected others would feel the same, but i scrolled down to see if they did.

Anyways, one thing to do is every time you're about to chew on a pen, shock yourself with electricity so that you become conditioned to hate chewing on pens.

have you tried coating the pen tips with something you can't stand?

there are all sorts of ugly tasting things you can get to smear on the ends of your pen and that should do the trick.

in my dad's day his teacher put alum on the erasers of the students if she saw sucking the ends and that cured them.

Alum btw is used for pickling and medicine and it is the ingredient in the really sour novelty store gum that makes your lips pucker up as soon as you start chewing.

My dad went to school in the days when parents thanked the teacher for using common sense or discipline when necessary instead of suing them for "being mean" to the little darlings when they misbehave.

You obviously suffered a traumatic event during your Oral Phase. Did something happen to you when you were 2 years old? Or....you could put this stuff on your pens.

I did not read the title of this thread as "pens" at first and was very disturbed for about 3 seconds.

Just start chewing gum. Seriously with any willpower at all you should be able to stop this. If you can't stop chewing pens how are you ever going to be able to quit anything else you might do that isn't desirable?

Oral Fixations FTW... I do the same thing. There are ways to quit. Depends on what branch of psychology you subscribe to: -behavioral...put something really hot and/or nasty on the ends of them -psychoanalytical...therapy to figure out why you have this fixation -developmental...find out what needs have not been met Or you could just stop doing it...:P

Umm.....chew on gum instead?

Or you could continue chewing on the pens until your deep into debt from your constant pen buying and then you will be forced to spare every pen unless you want to lose your possessions.

You could also dip it in dog doo. :)

this topic reminds me of the first time I got suspended.

I asked my debate teacher if I could write my favourite quotation on the blackboard and she said "sure"

in large block letters "The pen is mightier than the sword"

I made the tiniest possible space between the second and third words of that sentance.

She really blew a gasket and I found out later why.

this same teacher lost her job for taking her girlfriend out for a session in her van in the school parking lot.

Had it been off campus they could have claimed it was none of the schools business but there were studends watching through the window.

I assume you are being sarcastic...you don't really mean to recommend smoking to anyone:?
