Need To Get Rid Of This Habit!

I do that too, but only AFTER I get a sore throat because it itches the inside of it and makes it feel better.

I think gum would be the most help to you, but that doesn't really work the same muscles so ... I don't know; maybe not. You could try giving yourself negative reinforcement whenever you catch yourself doing it - like forcing yourself to clean a dish or put a quarter in your piggy bank or something like that. Just to become more aware of yourself and when/where you're doing it.

I know what you mean, but I'm doing that in my lower throat like an inch above my collar bone.

I have to ask, why are you asking a question about a sore throat, developed by a day-long habit, on a ball pythons forum?

Gargle with some saltwater. Suck on a Cold-eze. They have zinc in them and they do help shorten a cold. I swear by them.

Thanks! I will definitely try this. I did go home sick today, my nose was kinda stuffy/runny and I have a sore throat. I'm starting to feel aches now, in my lower back and neck.

Yeah, I think I'm getting sick. My mom is sick so she probably gave it to me.

Oh man your mom is so mean! Give it back to her LOL

You always get your self in a position to get picked on lol. I love it!

But seriously sorry to hear that, I used to do something similar when I was younger. But not as bad.

LOL I wish I can give it back to her, I don't want this cold/flu

I do get picked on, but I think it's funny

I seem to get sick a lot, I think I have a low immune system from all the crap I eat.

Well remember you are what you eat.

It's always good to create good habits when you are young. I am not saying to become a healthy food freak, but you should know something you shouldn't be eating when it is in your plate.

Yeah definitely, I do eat healthy foods and I like a lot of them but I also have a lot of sweets.

Hell I'm 26 and I love candy, as long as you dont over do it, or make your self fat, it's fine! But Im one of those lucky people that doesnt get fat or out of shape easy.

Dark Chocolate M&M's is one of my weaknesses lol.
