Is it normal to subconciously self-cannibalise

this isnt something I just decided to do one day.
Its something that grew and now I physically cant stop myself because im rarely aware im even doing it.

It started as biting my fingernails and the inside of my mouth, and thats normal.
but now its at a point where I pick everything and anything I can off me and then eat it. To the point that scabs are not just picked, thier eaten and then i drink any blood that comes with it. I kinda get excited by a really bloody one... [[in a christmas way not sexual way]]

It disgusts myself and I just want to know if other people do this too.

    This is an rare eating disorder called Autosarcophagy. I think you should see a doctor as soon as possible.

    Good Luck!

    I bite the skin on my fingers but it's like biting my nails. I don't think I go as far as you do. It honestly sounds a bit scary...

    this extremely normal....except i've gotten to point of near vampirism..like drinking animal blood.....fuck twilight by the way.....but eating scabs does sound slightly nasty but it's incredibly normal.

    not gonna lie, but i think i felt a little bit of sick come up.

    The whole nail biting and gum biting is normal, i do it when i'm stressed.

    But eating your scabs is just nasty.

    Well I have mentioned it to a professional. and I am waiting for an appointment that seems it will never come...

    Whether im a case of a rare disorder is another matter.
    But It is personally stupidly addictive...
