Is it normal to bite chunks of the skin around my fingers?

I bite my nails a lot and the skin around it, so much it will even bleed. All my fingers just look like someone took a cheese grader and sawed the hecc outta them.

It’s a habit I have done since I was a kid. I never stopped doing it. And I catch myself doing it without even noticing sometimes.

    It’s actually classed as something called a BFRB. It can be linked to anxiety or similar conditions but if you’re mentally healthy and not self conscious about it then it’s nothing to worry about. It’s like nail biting, sometimes people outgrow it, sometimes they don’t.
