This is a diagnosis I had not heard of before. I happened on it on another forum website. Here's a link to the Wikipedia citation in case anyone happens to have an interest:
Body integrity dysphoria - Wikipedia __________________ "I may be older but I am not wise / I'm still a child's grown-up disguise / and I never can tell you what you want to know / You will find out as you go." (from: "A Nightengale's Lullaby" - Julie Last) |

I've heard of this before. Doesn't suprise me. People are so complex, there's a billion and one ways things can go wrong.

Saw an Law & Order episode on this. I think it was L&O. Could have been one of the CSI 's

I used to know someone who had it. She had a stroke and lost the body map of her legs in her brain. So her legs felt like something disgusting, like corpse parts sewn onto her.
Possible trigger:

I read a book about a guy who cut off his own hand. He had paranoid schizophrenia though. I think he was trying to please some make believe god or something. Read the book in 2013 I think.
