Hi Dianna, It’s called “Body Integrity Disorder”, something goes haywire in a person’s mind and they feel as if they are “supposed” to have some type of disability, spinal cord injury, amputation etc. Very bizarre, and sad. Seems quite real, although their minds can’t seem to wrap themselves around real SCI problems like UTI’s bowel & bladder accidents, pain, etc.—seems they often “choose” to be low level incomplete injuries…
Here is a link to a blog I wrote about it: https://roho.com/paraplegic-feels-trapped-in-a-non-disabled-body/ <https://roho.com/paraplegic-feels-trapped-in-a-non-disabled-body/> Bob V > On Apr 6, 2016, at 11:15 AM, diannal...@aol.com wrote: > > DaveOc once told us about "wheelchair want to be's" I quess they fake their > injuries and used wheelchairs. they have a website but if you googled it, i'm > sure you'll find it.
