Dear
Welcome to HCM
We understand your concerns

I went through your details. I suggest you not to worry much. So many people eat raw rice. This has become a habit and urge because your body is deficient in some of the nutrients which raw rice have plenty. Raw rice contains so many minerals and is rich in iron content. So you must get yourself checked up medically and find out which essential mineral your body lacks. Taking proper treatment to overcome mineral deficiency can only overcome your raw rice eating habit.

If you require more of my help in this aspect, Please post a direct question to me in this URL. http://goo.gl/aYW2pR. Make sure that you include every minute details possible. I shall prescribe the needed psychotherapy techniques.

Hope this answers your query. Available for further clarifications.
Good luck.
