Is eating tissue normal?

22% Normal

Ever since I was about six years old I would always go into the bathroom to use it, and I would have a urge to eat the tissue. First I tried ignoring the urge but thats when it got stronger and stronger. It wasnt until one day i went into the bathroom but it wasnt to use it this time it was to try eating some of the tissue. I tore one square of tissue of the roll, I then tore it down the middle, then tearing it apart then i put it into my mouth. Once I began eating it I swallowed it. I still eat tissue to this day but I only like Angel Soft brand. Is this normal?

    It's fine it'll just save you having to wipe after a shit, it will wipe your ass as it comes out.

    You might have an eating disorder (pica), you should probably talk to your doctor about this. You most likely have pica because maybe you aren't eating enough of a certain vitamin or mineral, or you could just have OCD (obsessive compulsive disorder).

    I used to do that when I was little too. I used eat alot of things like erasers and lead. But I grew out of it. But no it's not normal to eat tissue when your older.

    Uh honey this isnt normal. You need to get some help. I'm not trying to be mean but I saw this on TV and the lady had to go get surgry because the Tissue was so backed up in her. Tell someone about it & get some help.

    You have pica. My Standard Poodle eats napkins, Q-tips and dental floss if I don't get them before she does.
