Yeah, it’s not unheard of for doctors/psychs who treat BIID to, say, take off limbs, because they know the patient is eventually going to do it anyway, and at least this way they’ll be able to avoid the potentially life-threatening complications of an amateur hatchet job. (In some cases, literally.) But I find it hard…
