See above, previous question and responses.
My response: I suggest that you see a doctor. You may have a nutritional deficiency. And yes, soap is bad for your health. Some even contain carcinogenic substances.

Its a condition called Pica, where a person has the compusion to eat non food items. This can be dangerous. The chemicals in commercial "soaps" (which are really detergents) are not meant to be ingested and you could be hurting your body. If you wont get medical treatment, at least switch to a natural product. You can find many places that sell home made soaps, something without lye would be best.
But really...you need to see a doctor about your condition.

You need help and help is on the way. Call your doctor and refer you to a specialist in order for the insurance to pick up the tab.Otherwise, you have to pay for private practice. Well chemical in your body it is not the good sign and I am serious about it. Now if you are joking,it is not funny that you make the old folk like me thinking about your habit and worry about you. Good luck and tell me after you make your decision and it is you who can change.

It is a sign of a deeper issue in your life. You need to get professional help to get at the "root" of what is troubling you so you can stop eating soap!

I have heard about cleaning your insides...but using soap is just plain stupid...use fiber cereal. That works better. If you wanna continue eating soap you are eating yourself into a grave. Smarten' up...eat real food.

eww..! this is like the first time i ever heard such "clean" habits.. usually habits are dirty like biting your fingernails or something... anyway, do you know what soaps are made of..? it's made of almost any kind of oil.. maybe, the next time you eat the soap, remind yourself you are like eating oil... eww..! unless of course, you eat oil too... haha!
