I've bitten off skin from my cuticle or lips when it's dead but you know, I just spit it out.

[Wynnebeck]

Damn, I do this to my fingernails. It's a terrible habit.

 

[Timedog]

when my lips are chapped I'll sort of chew the dry part off and then swallow it. That's already part of my mouth though, tongue already touches lips all the time, etc.

This would be awesome for weight loss in so many ways.

Yeah I do this too. There's no reason not to, it's right there and coming off anyways.

Yup, that's me all the way.

When I was young I used to enjoy wrapping my hand in toilet paper and catching my own feces to inspect them. One time I decided to lick an exceptional specimen just to see if it really tasted as bad as it smelled, but to my surprise it didn't actually taste of much. It's just a warm feeling on the tongue, slimy texture, and a slightly iron-like bitterness.

So poop is just warm? No taste? Interesting...

I chew my nails almost 24/7, awful habit but if I'm not chewing somethings my nerves get shot. Have tried to switch to toothpicks over the past few years(probably shouldn't swallow the wood) but still end up chewing my fingers quite constantly. In the 8th grade I actually chewed a nail off, was horrifying. Looking bad It's hard to believe how bad it had gotten.

What the...? What did I just read? Disgusting!

I bite the insides of my cheeks. It just happens these days. I try and stop when I notice myself doing it these days.

I think that's all for my eating myself habits.

 

[Anteater]

I bite the skin off my lips if they're chapped (sometimes to the point I make them sore), and I bite the inside of my cheeks all the time.

yes i do this, i need to stop

 

[Winterfang]

yes i do this, i need to stop

This, I actually have a gap in the middle of my upper lip because I end up eating a huge chuck of it. I'm sure to use some chapstick every now and then now.

 

[Ryaaan14]

Since I was a kid I've chewed the skin from around my fingernails and ate it. It was a really bad habit at one point. I still occasionally do it when I'm bored or anxious.

[Beermeister]

Spok? Is that Spock's retarded twin or something?

 

[BravesCountry]

I'm biting the inside of my cheeks as I type this, I didn't realize it was such a common occurrence. I really only do it when I'm more stressed than usual though, thankfully.

Poo-tasting confessional?! Well well well.

Once got dared to piss in my mouth and drink it for £10 when I was about 8 years old.

£10 in pocket, piss on my shirt. Never again.

 

[Boobless]

I eat the side of my tongue and the side of my cheeks, to the point they are red rore almost every day.

Especially so if I have more anxiety in my life.

 

[Servbot24]

I thought I was gross for simply picking at my chapped lips... but this thread, man... :X

 

[Atlantis]

I suffer from Trichotillomania (well not as heavily as when I was younger). I would pull out my eyelashes and eat them. This started when I was about 8 years old and I almost always had bald eyelids. People began to notice during High School which killed my self-esteem. I'm 23 now and am recovering from doing it. I still remember the days when people made fun of me for doing it, ugh.

Oh hey, same here.

Started off as a kid, probably second grade or so, with my eyelashes, but it quickly spread to my head and eyebrows. I've pulled hair from pretty much every part of my body at this point. Used to have bald spots of various sizes covering my head (I pulled in clumps) and sometimes bald eyebrows/lashes.

As far as eating it goes, I've pretty much got that spectrum covered, too. The main one was pulling the epithelial tissue off the hair with my nails or teeth, but I've also just eaten the hair or pulled it between my teeth (which makes it curl up like a ribbon).

Luckily I'm mostly recovered from it. I still pull once in awhile but it's one hair at a time compared to the clumps I'd pull before, no eyebrows or eyelashes either. Years of abuse has left an area of my scalp a bit damaged, but my hair is only a bit thin there and it's not very noticeable.

Should have eaten a box of sugar puffs first.

You're a shit eater.

I expected him to get tagged seeing all the reactions, not this kind of tag, though

 

[Winterfang]

If he gets unbanned he should be tagged with "Iron-Like Bitterness" and a link to his post.

 

[Willectro]

I bite my fingers around the nails sometimes. Awful habit, likely caused by mild anxiety.

[UberTag]

Not to defend I NEED SCISSORS but former GAF member Gumby wrote similar material regarding his bodily waste both here and on Opa-Ages back in the day and he's in the best position (right now) to take home a million dollars as the winner of Survivor Season 26.

So perhaps we shouldn't be so hasty to judge I NEED SCISSORS so harshly. He could end up thriving in life in ways that we could only dream about.

Spoiler

Probably not, though.

Iron-like bitterness? Makes sense actually.

Why would you judge someone based on something someone while he was younger?

Wait... That explains how he ate all that nasty stuff so easily...

 

[A Sentient Keyboard]

To be fair, that was an excellently written post. I can vividly imagine what shit tastes like now. I NEED SCISSORS's shit, specifically.

Naturally. That challenge was made for Cochran.

 

[TL4E]

I had this problem. Biting my nails, lips, cheeks, etc. My nails always looked disgusting and I couldn't control it no matter how much I tried.

From my understanding (and I'm no doctor), these sorts of behaviors, and others such as hair pulling, fall under the category of compulsive behavior. There is an uncontrollable 'compulsion' to engage in these behaviors, especially while under stress/anxiety in many cases.

One easily obtainable medicine that helped me is acetyl-l-cysteine. I didn't notice it working until about a week later when I looked at my hands and, for the first time in years, they didn't look like they just came out of a juice blender. There is some science backing up its efficacy (and I can send you more studies if you want), but again, I'm not a doctor so take it with a grain of salt - especially if you struggle with very severe compulsive behaviors.
