Actually it is Excoriation Disorder. Which is a mental disorder characterized by the repeated urge to pick at one's own skin, often to the extent that damage is caused. It can include eating of said skin.
I do it all the damn time. It doesn't have to be the feet it can be anywhere. I find there is more dry skin on my feet than anywhere else so that's my go to place.
The only concern that has been brought to my attention is if I'm using it as a way of self harming (which I've done since I was 7-8 years old). If I'm not picking to hurt myself then I don't know why it would be a big deal.
Is it normal that I like to eat dead skin?
