Everytime i notice a rough patch on my finger tips or a scab for example, or even dry lips, I feel compulsed to chew on the skin i pull off. I know its gross but is it normal?

    I believe habits such as these are a cause of anxiety or stress in someones' life. I used to bite my nails alot, which was when things in my life weren't going as I wanted. But now, I've stopped, because nothing really bothers me anymore~! :D Not for now anyway. xP
