body identity integrity disorder (BIID)

The Guardian: I won't be happy until I lose my legs

"Ever since she was little, Susan Smith has felt there is something wrong with her body. Her determination to 'fix' things has twice landed her in hospital"
Susan: "A hundred years ago, it was taboo to be gay in many societies, and 50 years ago the idea of transsexuals was abhorrent to most. I have tried to make the condition more understood but it is difficult to get a case out in the open by yourself."

The mind is a strange, strange thing.
