"Excerpt: A study in the journal Archives of Sexual Behavior suggests
that BIID is similar to gender identity disorder in which individuals
feel they were born the wrong sex.
Body-integrity identity disorder (BIID) causes intense personal misery
and shame. It is estimated there are several thousand BIID sufferers
worldwide. BIID often begins in childhood with the feeling that a limb
does not belong and must be removed. The obsession is usually kept
secret and does not interfere with other aspects of life."
