I want to remove my left eye - Ask Me Anything
At some point around September last year I (15M, 16 soon) began to have thoughts and urges to lose my eye. My left eye in particular, which is perfectly healthy, just like my right eye. I don't know why I have these thoughts, and I have them all the time - every second of every day, but I can't bring myself to harm myself with anything. These thoughts stopped for a little while after I got glasses, but the urges came back. I am fully aware of the impacts of having/losing one eye, and I know that it will severely affect my life, my relations with others, and my future prospects.
Edit: I forgot to mention this. I (reluctantly) told my parents about this a few months ago, and we haven't mentioned it since (fortunately). I hope that they have forgotten. Also, I am aware of Body Integrity Dysphoria and notable cases of this disorder, but it is not officially recognised here in the UK (or anywhere else, I think).
