Chewing skin around nails.
Yep, the skin NOT the nails.
I mainly do this when I'm anxious. Other times I'll do it because the skin around them is dry, which then will become raw once I'm done and then in a matter of days the skin will come back and it will be dry again and the hideous cycle goes on and on.
Anyone else?There is a sense of isolation when the things in your head feel nothing like what the world says they should be.

LOL yes. Anytime my mum catches me do it she gives me a look and asks me if I'm really that hungry.

^ Can relate to both of you
Even if they are bleeding sometimes I keep doing it because I forget, so then I have to put band-aids on my sore fingers to prevent me from continuing further.

I do it as well, and sometimes it gets to the point it hurts. It's like a tick or an itch that I have. When I start on one finger, I find another to nibble at.
And I take back all the things I said
to make you feel like that
And I just wish that I didn't feel
like there was something I missed
And I take back all the things I said to you
And I give it all away
just to have somewhere to go to
Give it all away
to have someone to come home to
