Is it normal i like to eat boogers, ear wax, dry wounds and cyst waste?

22% Normal

Ok, ok, i know it sounds gross but bear with me

It all started since i was a kid, i started eating a booger or two in class, maybe just peeling off some dry wound i had and eating the waste, i have lots of anxiety, depression and i am fat because of my anxiety that makes me eat shit to feel "full" and feel good. Also i need to chew on stuff, and if i dont have any gum then i'm fucked

The thing is, even though it sounds gross i have an impulse to eat my boogers, my earwax, my dried wounds and my cysts pus (yes, for real)

I never felt sick or grossed out by it and i enjoy the flavour, though people think it is gross.

Am i the only one with this impulse?

Not normal dude! Not at all. But I will say a thing or 2.
A lot, probably the majority of people pick there nose, and most of that group eat it. So the eating boogers is common.

The other shit, not so common. I know someone that does what you do but this person has autism.

What I am about to say has nothing to do with your weight but more from personal experience. Exercise is the best thing for anxiety and depression. It works better then medication.

What you're experiencing is called Pica Disorder. There's Facebook groups for those with it if it's something you feel the need to discuss with others who feel similarly!

    I was under the impression that Pica was eating items that have no nutritional value, such as what you're eating?

      yeah, but like non organic shit, bricks, stones, glass...
      
      I am eating organic stuff from my body, which it is nutritional, eating boggers can actually strenghten your immune system, and everybody peels off their wounds and has eaten the crust at least once.

        Fair, I'm sorry. I've known people who eat bodily items like scabs to identify with Pica.

Scabs and booger eating here. Morbid fascination with squeezing pus from blackheads and pimples, but not eating it. I've never thought it was normal, but I'm (glad? relieved?) I'm not alone.

I'm really surprised you didn't get more votes. Scabs, dry bogies and the occasional bit of ear wax is tasty, I'm with you bro.

If someone likes what they like to eat, then they like what they like to eat. It’s as simple as that (I think).

What's not normal is that you do it in front of other people.

Picking at skin of your body is a type of obsessive compulsive disorder known as Dermotillamainia. It can include eating the picked skin or waste. Maybe check it out and see if it sounds like what you have?
