biting on something

Post Reply New Topic

some one els have a problem biting on this?i do it all the time with small object like coins or treads or other things anyone els bites on things without realising it or something?

yes, less than when i was younger, though. but still quite a lot, my fingers mainly. it got less severe after puberty, before that my collars and pencils where always in my mouth

and i also became afraid of germs so i had to stop doing that with objects i didn't know about how clean they were. so now i bite only my left hand, because the right one is for touching things and shaking hands when others insist on it.

Yeah, it's way too tempting. I have a toonie on my computer desk that I'm always biting on

The only thing I bite are my nails..

LOL haha dont tell me you bite on its head?

am do the same/am constantly sensory seeking,will bite into own flesh,clothes,the bed,the door,sticks,game covers,tables etc,am wont avoid anything.
am also have pica,which is similar-except it is swallowed as well,am only eat grass and sticks.

I used to gnaw mercilessly on my pens in school, now i just dont bring pens or pencils around. And hot damn do my nails taste good

I used to bite my nails but I suddenly stopped one day and I'm not sure why.

Otherwise my only problem is that if I put something soft like a toothpick between my back teeth and don't consciously try to prevent it my jaw will clamp down so hard it makes my eyes water and triggers a gag reflex.

That's kinda weird.

For some reason, I've gone for a few months now without putting anything in my mouth, after having it really bad. Now that I think about it, I'm kind of getting the urge, but I'm fighting it

I've read that eating ice counts as pica, but I don't see why it should...ice melts down into water, which is food...

Anyway, I love eating ice Don't really eat anything else that isn't food, unless I'm doing it to be funny.

Yeah, I bite all the time, on stuff like chains, or the handle of my purse. Often I bite my knuckles. I think it's a stress thing.

Wow. I do this, too. I guess this would be considered a form of stimming?

Yes I would think so, I bite my nails and that is also a stim

Amazing. I realize I am early in the discovery process, but it seems like every day I identify at least one behavior or action that is particularly Aspie. I have a lot to learn.

I am a biter, gnawer, chewer of all kinds of things.

In my school days I chewed up a lot of shirt collars, pencils, and erasers. These days I chew on toothpicks, quite often mixed in with either jawbreakers or some other type of hard candy.

I used to chew pencils all the time
