Is it normal that when i get angry i bite both of my thumbs

When I get angry I always have this compulsion to bite the tips of both of my thumbs at the same time with my thumbnail being on my bottom teeth. They always have to be on the same tooth in my mouth or else it won't have the same effect. It relieves my tension and anger and helps to calm me down. I also do this when I see someone doing something stupid or embarrassing or 'dorky.' I've done in public a few times and people stare at me. I've never met anyone else who does this.

    I bite mine too, one hard bite and it relieves soo much tension. But I do it more when I'm really angy.

    I cant think of anyone i know who does it, but the idea of it seems normal to me.

    I dont do it myself, but if I have a panic attack in public, i tend to hyperventilate and I bite my hands a whole lot, like, everywhere.

    Never heard of it but if you read other posts you'll realize it's not that abnormal :)

    YeA, it's sorta normal, but not many people I know do that.
