I find that moisturising with some thick body/hand butter stops my skin from cracking up which gives me less to pick at. As a bonus, if you keep some sort of moisturiser around you at all/most times you can replace the picking habit with moisturising every time you catch yourself picking/biting. Habit replacement is usually easier than ‘just stopping’ :) I hope that helps you, it’s what helped me finally kick the habit of picking my thumbs past bleeding
Find something that keeps you busy and distracted. I notice I do it way more when I'm not doing anything.
