Eating paper

43% Normal
11 Comments

I habitually eat paper. You know that strip that's left when you tear a piece from a notebook? I always eat it, often without thinking about it. And if my teacher gives me a worksheet, I'll often tear off a bit and eat it. It used to be that I just felt like chewing on something, but I seem to have developed a taste for it. I actually ENJOY eating it. Am I insane?

Is It Normal?

    It's part of pica. I suffered with eating paper, dirt, permanent markers and smelling gas and exhaust when I was pregnant and am now going through menopause and its back. Now I'm licking gasoline and eating a lot of newspaper!!

    I would sometimes chew on paper, but I never actually swallowed it, lol.
