Does anybody else chew the skin off their hands and eat it?

I have this habit of chewing my knuckles and the skin off around my fingers and thumb. It started when I was young. I suppose it's a nervous habit...but it's out of control. My hand looks like it got burned. I never used to chew and eat the skin, but now I just swallow it down. I honestly don't know why I do it.

It started as a nervous habit and now its just a habit. Lots of people do it. It's like biting finger nails. There are far worse habits to have.
