Chewing things

I have an habit of chewing the string on a hooded jacket and chewing a part of a keyring.

What kind of things can people with AS buy to try to get themselves out of habits like the one i have mentioned above??

  • I always chew plastic. Biro pen tops are the best lol

    I am forever picking up anything plastic like bottle tops, one of the childrens tops and i chew through a million pens. 

    Chewing gum or a food just doesnt do the same thing. Some times my mouth gets quite sore and cut but its never occured to me to stop. People do think I am very odd but I dont really care. 

    I also went through a stage of eating little stones and rocks. I did mess my teeth a little but lucky i havent done that for a while. Will be interesting to here what other people have to say on the topic.
