    Default Don't Laugh. I can't stop sucking my thumb. AA!!! help!

    Okay, seriously. To be totally honest, I don't know how this habit really happened but for about the last year, I find myself sucking my thumb while I'm sleeping and or watching tv. It's like a compulsion...I find it relaxes me. I don't know what brought it on either! What is wrong with me? Why can't I stop doing this? Does ANYBODY have any advice? I'm sure it's not good for my pearly whites......EEEK! I feel like a crazy addict...but for my thumb.....

    Oof, yeah, don't do this. I had some seriously messed up teeth from thumb-sucking. It took two years of braces to fix them... I'm sure if I posted pre-braces pics of my teeth, that would get you to stop quick.

    Well, it's an oral fixation. So, my suggestion would be to replace it with another - for me, I always carry chapstick, gum, and a bottle of water on me at all times (some use cigarettes too, but ew!). Whenever you catch yourself doing it or get the urge, start chewing some gum or something. If watching tv makes you do this, try to cut back on the tv watching (I can't say the same for sleep).

    Thinking in a Freudian way, oral is associated with lack of comfort, but well, we don't want to get into THAT...

    I just thought of something else... I've heard of people putting nasty-tasting nail polish on their nails to prevent themselves from nail biting. Maybe you could do something similar with the thumb?

    ^ Cute.
    Yeah I had braces for three and a half years too because I was a thumbsucker. Do whatever you can to break this habit, or your teethies are going to hate you, not to mention your wallet.

    Oh my god!! I sucked my thumb until I was 18!!! Oh this is a tough one. Just as bad as quitting smoking. I always did the same thing, suck my thumb to fall asleep and while watching tv. I just stopped doing it, because it was embarrassing and because I couldn't sleep at other peoples house without sucking my thumb. So basically if I ever slept at a friends house I would have to get wasted or I wouldn't sleep well at all. It was all mental. No I'm serious, you have to really want to quit doing it mentally. Once I stopped I never did it again. It took me about one month to fall asleep without thinking about it. I have a nice sized overbite because of it and I need braces. I am somewhat embarrassed to smile because of it. Quit, now!!!! You don't to mess up your teeth. Sucking your thumb pushes your front teeth forward.

    I just bought a self hypnosis book off amazon to see if that helps. And later I'm going to walgreens to buy that stuff that makes your nails taste bad. Maybe I should get wasted so I can sleep without it. Haha. In reality I would probably just be drunk and like "aww fuck it thumb I will suck you!"

    My name is Taylor, I'm 28 and I still suck my thumb from time to time.

    My boyfriend said he came in to check on me the other night and I was sucking my thumb in my sleep. oops. I don't go to sleep with it in there so I'm not sure why I ended up that way.
