Staying up late. It’s not harmless.
I used to do that. Now, I loooove getting in my bed and cutting out the light and it’s “night night”!
Forgetting time, space and everything else while I write code.
Not that I’ve almost set the kitchen on fire before by forgetting the pizza in the oven while writing “this one little function”.
I’m curious as to what you program/work in. I’m the same way when I’m invested into a configuration/template (I work with the cloud)
Biting my nails and the skin around my nails. Currently trying to quit again. On day 6.
What helped me quit was a manicure. Spending $40+ on my nails helped me not want to bite them. By the time the gel chipped off, I broke the habit, so I didn’t go back. I still pick off hangnails and the uneven structure, but having a file next to my desk at all times helps with that. I also have a cheat nail where I mess it up if I need to.
I used to do it, what helped me break it was keeping a rubber band on my wrist and every time id bite, id snap my self with the rubber band, took ~1.5 weeks for me to stop
But what if I’m a masochist?
New way to get off in public? Double trouble if you’re into voyeurism as well!
In all seriousness, it’s not a bad idea. I think I will try it.
Late night snacking
Waking up feeling slightly sick has been the norm for me for the past 5+ years
I regularly eat right before bed and I don’t have this, in fact if I don’t do it I wake up really hungry. It’s still a bad habit on my part. Maybe something else at work?
laughing a stupid little laugh after I’m done talking. probably comes off as nervous and awkward. I hate it.

I love caffeine, but it messes me up bad. Absolutely debilitating headaches. I’ll go six months or something without, and then relapse until I get woken up by a jackhammer in my skull and give it up again. Sigh. I don’t understand the studies that actually suggest it’s good for you.
that doesnt seem harmless.
It sounds like a rare reaction. Some people are allergic to water but you wouldn’t say, “that doesn’t sound harmless.”
Maybe the diuretic nature (u pee more) gives you a headache. Next relapse, drink a glass of water or three.
I thought that too. It doesn’t seem to help. At least not quick enough.
Biting/Knawing/Anxiety picking at my lips and fingers, it’s not fun
I use “just” a lot
I make a “guitar playing” face when I do complicated things. Work is now complicated and I find myself making this face for hours at work. Now I’m lying in bed posting and constantly having to remind myself every few seconds to not make that face. I fucking hate it.
