Also body dysphoria - even more bizarre. PBS had a doc in the early 2000's about people who 'hated' like a hand or foot etc. It was fascinating but can not find it anywhere (licensing issues). They had a lady who would not swing 1 arm when she walked (like humans do for balance) because she said 'If I see this hand I will start tearing up'. Nuts.
There was a video I saw not too long ago about a woman who didn't want to see anymore, so, with the help of her therapist or psychologist or whoever mind you, she blinded herself and now lives as a blind person. It's sad that some people want to mutilate themselves in these ways, but also that now those who should be helping them with those thoughts encourage them instead.

Look up the people that go so far as to have a body part removed because they don’t want it, or they feel like they should be disabled. So weird….
Or even the bod mod community where they make themselves look more reptilian or other mammals (eg huge nose rings like a bull).
