Answers:
Well, instead of tossing a piece of tape in your mouth, can you chew on gum instead?
Don't feel too bad about i. I watched a show on TV once that featured a girl who ate toilet paper. It was a nervous habit. At least tape has flavor.
guess its better than paint chips.
yeah...stop cold turkey is all I can say
Your description supports a symptom called 'pica', and can be a sign of iron deficiency anemia. Other things that people will chew on when they have this symptom include chalk, clay, dirt, cloth and ice.
