I had a conversation with a random girl on twitter the other day and it turns out that we both have a habit of chewing the skin on our hands.
Just thinking about it brings back the memories of licking my tender flesh... the taste of the dead cells and sweat... oooooohhhhh and those sweet juice scabs!
*ahem*
Huh, so! Um-
Does anybody else have this?
Discus for my amusement.
No sir, I have not.
You make it sound so perverted.
But yes, when I know I can't bite my nails anymore I start biting the skin around them instead. Not a good idea, specially since your hands will look like total crap (and of you smoke, that will hurt).
I also chew on my hair all the time. OMNOMNOM
i like to bite on other ppl but haven't yet (o.0)
Fairly frequently, really. I still bite the inside of my mouth more than anyone I know of, I'll bite those little "corner" areas by the fingernails, and when I was younger I would lick up the blood that came from scratching mosquito bites.
I still lick blood from cuts and what-not. Helps it stop bleeding, and tastes good, too.
I use to bite my nails constantly but I somehow got out of that habit a few years ago. I hate using nail clippers though, so I still bite my nails every few weeks to trim them. I also bite the skin around my nails and I chew on my lips, both of which I really want to get out of the habit of doing. When I had long hair, there were times when I would gently chew on it as well.
I also bite my tongue a lot, but that's not done voluntarily.

Ugh. Vomitrocious.
Hmm...chewing on your skin seems natural for some reason. Like sucking your thumb. I don't do it myself, but if I've got like some skin peeling or some kind of blister, I do touch it a lot.
I love Biters

wrong context.
There are some folks who have terrible allergic reactions to "spider" bites/stings.
Where as what often happens is partial paralysis & stiffening of flesh, skin & muscles.
Unfortunately I'm one of those people.
Fortunately after my first bad encounter, there existed an anti-venom at my doctor's medical institution. Mostly because these spiders genus are so common.
Any way, since then I've been very careful around spiders & have read up a bit on common varieties in areas I am living in or will be living in. Due to my allergy.
Most are harmless, but there are a few that I simply loathe.
The last few times I had been stung, by suspected "most hated" varieties. I usually take drastic measures like bleeding out the area of the bite to remove the contaminant (venom). Sucking it out and spitting it away is normally the order of the day when it happens.
There were a few times I had to make an incission to coerce the blood flow.
Given the choice of letting it run its course until I can get proper medical treatment.
I prefer to attend to the former than having to bear with the latter.
The eventual stiffening is usually restricted to a considerablely smaller area of the bite. The healing process like wise is faster.
In some people if you don't get proper treatment - in time, the result can be an amputation or living with limb that isn't functional other than for personal reasons (like I'm not ready to part with it).
Early on before I learned of my spider allergy, I had gotten used to removing splinters & the occasional stray BB or pellet when I was a kid. So I'm not as squeamish as others when it comes to making minor cuts to remove a foreign object.
If its not immediately life threatening or is lodged in really deep like say a bullet or shard of glass,... I'll go & have a phycisian do the intricate cutting & picking.
But due to this self relliance attitude of being reasonably prepared, I always have a sharp blade either on me or easily accessable. Hence my preference for a "Leatherman Pocket Tool".
*Aye, I was in the boy scouts too. My scout master was a certain burly Marine Capt.
But it was my father that taught me to not be affraid of doing what you gotta do, especially if you can do what you need to do "yourself".
When at the tender age of 4 I had some glass shards in my foot. My dad dug it out with his pen knife. Of course it did help that my dad was also a fire fighter/paramedic.
I'm sure other dads would just stick a bandage on and take you to the nearest hospital for non emergency treatment.
Unlike a lot of other kids, my dad gave me my first pocket knife at age 5, so I've always had a "utility" knife ever since.

I MUST HAVE YOU AS A PATIENT!
Yes, It is a mild anxiety issue. Nothing to be too worried about, but biting the nails is unhealthy.

As for the topic.
Nope.

I just chew my lip skin or the sides of my cheeks. uncontrollable habit ftw.
