Is it normal that an adult and love picking my nose?

I do it while I'm concentrated working or just (subconciously) want to relax.
Also when I wake up, I like it when there's a lot of it and it's very dry. (I'm sorry to be that graphic)
Sometimes I feel it gives me headaches or even makes me more vulnerable to getting colds.

Do you suggest anything I can do with my hands to help me stop?
(please don't make boring obvious sexual jokes)

    I like using my boogers to make little army guys.
    I almost have enough to re-enact the D-day invasion.

    I don't think anything's really wrong with the habit but getting caught is embarrassing so only do it when you know you're alone.

      I've been working from home for a while, I've got used to being "unwitnessed", so I'm really afraid I might do it when I start working in an office next week :S

      No!
      I remember doing that as a child.
      I clearly remember being still a kid but a bit older, trying it after a while and thinking "why on earth did I do this before!"

      So now it's just digging and picking for me, thanks.

      Do you?

    Picking your nose wouldn't give you headaches or colds

      I know it sounds ridiculous but after a while it kind of gives me migrains. I suppose it's the constant striking of some nerves in the nose area.

      The only other explanation would be that I pick my nose if I'm too stressed and that being also the monento when I get migrains, it could be that.

        Either way it doesn't seem like a good idea to me, there are more interesting pastimes and ways of dealing with stress
