According to a study from Medical Hypotheses, there’s a new thing that could be wrong with you and it’s called pagophagia (a compulsive craving for ice). The condition is thought to be caused by an iron deficiency, with the ice-chewing triggering more blood flow to the brain [via Newser].

One hematologist said that the patients he sees constantly tell him how much they’re obsessed with ice, with one patient saying that it’s better than sex.

So if you’re standing in front of your freezer right now eating ice and thinking you might soon have an orgasm, apparently you’re not alone.
