Topic: I cannot stop bitting myself!

I do not know why, but I started a new habit. I cannot stop bitting myself, I have been bitting my arms, hands, and sometimes legs for the past few days. I have no idea why or how I could stop it. The scary part is, I enjoy it.

Why stop if you enjoy it? :)

Do you bite yourself until you bleed?

If it doesn't really hurt you, I think you can just see it as a bad habit. If it does hurt (bite yourself till you bleed etc.) you should try to resist the urge.

Of course I don't do it until I bleed. The thought of bitting off flesh is sicking, which is one thing that does stop me from going too far.

Could I be a person that enjoys pain and suffering?

It's probably not the feeling of pain that you enjoy, but the feeling in your teeth when you bite down—kind of like a baby who is teething.

Most parts of your arms and legs have about the consistency of fresh chewing gum. I find the pressure and texture of gum chewing more enjoyable than the actual flavor so I understand a bit.
