    I have been doing that for awhile as well. I find that I actually like picking them even though sometimes it hurts and bleed as you described. Most of the time I dont just pick them but I eat chew/eat them aswell.Save me from myself!!

    It is pretty common, but it is a very bad habit/addiction. I would try to stop or find a different habit like chewing gum to replace it if you cannot get rid of that habit without replacing it with another one.
