I want to bite people. I don't know why, but I always have. This usually isn't an issue, but when a dentist starts poking his fingers around in my main orifice of entry, I get this urge, this urge to bite his fingers off! :twisted:
How do you deal with inappropriate urges like this?


I have a thing about biting too. I don't have any urge to bite strangers but I have alway had a compulsion to bite my boyfriends really hard. Weird, I know. Hands, shoulders, hip bones, etc. Sometimes I literally can't look at him until the urge passes. When I do bite I try not to do it too hard, but it's not easy.

Is this possibly A.S. related? I've got a good number of stims, perhaps this is associated somehow (physical expression of unexpressed emotion) ? I don't do it out of anger or spite, it seems to be more lust/attraction related.

i bite.oh my,do ibite.recently,5...youths,im not sure if you are all familiar with the disease known as 'chav' but im sure you have all dealt with the type...anyway.they attacked me and one of them made the mistake of putting his face near mine during the scrap then ensured.

and goodnight!thats all folks,they run.
nobody likes to fight a psycho...
i bite my best and scratch friend plenty.

its a type of stemming and a type of "connecting" for me, both, though, its not that i want to injur or harm him really.

Never gotten the urge to bite the dentist.

I do, however, get urges to rip out the throats of random passerbys with my teeth, however.

I just clench my hands and keep on walking.

thats definitely not an autistic trait. that urge is rather common amoung certain bipollar/NT/a few other types though.

ive dated two guys who actually admitted they wanted to do that to me. to be honest that totally freaks me out, i mean i didnt sayanything rud eto tehm ebcuas ei knew tehy wouldnt do it, no harm. i mean maybe its just becuase i grasp the fact that that would mean death, and the fact that i think in images and its disterbingly gorey in my mind, blood makes my stomach turn, i could never bite someone that way.

I've never bit my dentist, but he does look tasty.
AMIGAD! Other people get that urge too!? Sometimes I bite my husband. not in a sexual way or anything, I just wanna bite! He gets SO mad...

Oops, that should read 'bitten'. I can't even tell a joke in writing! Not having an edit button on a website devoted to those noted for pedantic or perfectionistic tendencies... is diabolical!

It is NOT common among those with bipolar disorder. Children showing symptoms of bipolar disorder (a hard Dx at that age is discouraged) may be slighly more prone to bite, but certainly not rip out someone's throat.

This is why you carry a pack of tissues around on you. You can bite them instead. I've never bitten or been tempted to bite a dentist.

Kids at school, however, are an entirely different matter altogether.


Somehow I don't think a pack of tissues would work for me.

Anyway, the one time I bit then dentist wan't becauase of pain - it was beacuse his hand was in my mouth. At the time, that was pretty much what happenned to pretty much anything that went in my mouth
- silverware, mugs.

Damn. I am so much better than than I used to be. Go over that one probably age 10 or so. Had forgotten all about that.

BTW - would also bite out of anger and frustration. Usualy my younger brother. Bit him BADLY if I recall more than a few times.

No, but the dentist would want to bite me because my gums and teeth aren't in the best of shape.
I like my dentist, which is why I still make a 10 mile round trip despite there being a closer surgery. I don't trust any other dentist but him.
I have never ever told anyone this until now, but when I was a student nurse, I was working with a female nurse ( making a bed I think ) when I had an overwhelming urge to bite her arm & did ( not hard ), I was so embarrassed & couldn't explain what came over me, fortunately she didn't complain.
I've never done it since.

My oldest son does his own fillings, he has very fragile cracked teeth don't know where those genes came from!
I once did bite my dentist a few times by accident when getting my wisdom teeth removed, my jaws were so sore I could barely open my mouth. So the technican had to hold my mouth open for me.

DIY dentistry - that's what the shortage of NHS dentists is driving people to!

That was why he did it...he couldn't get onto the list & built a drill to do it ( the Dremmel was to big ), he is seeing a dentist now & the only comment made was "one needs a little trimming".Rolleyes...that boy !!!!

How would he have anaesthetised himself though?

He didn't...high pain threshold.
he attended the dentist this am & had two done with & then the dentist had enough time to do a third..but not enough to use the anaesthetic..so he just told him to go ahead.  Cool
he never told the dentist that he had done his own..I told him that he should just to see what he saysBig GrinBig GrinBig GrinBig GrinBig GrinBig GrinBig GrinBig GrinBig Grin.
