Lip Chewing

I'm wondering if anyone else with anxiety or OCD (my psych says I have GAD with OCD elements, lol) chews their lips and if they have found any ways to stop or redirect that behavior? I literally chew them bloody and of course also have the lines and wrinkles from years of this. I'm really trying to get a handle on it and would appreciate any else's stories or strategies.
