WOMAN repeatedly tried to break her own back in a desperate bid to become paralysed.
Chloe Jennings-White, 57, suffers from Body Integrity Identity Disorder (BIID) — a condition that means she wants to be paralysed from the waist down.
Chloe’s obsession started aged nine when she tried to copy her paraplegic aunt.
One bid to paralyse herself saw her trying to crash her bike to break her own back.
Chloe, a research scientist in psychiatry who is originally from London but now lives with partner Danielle in West Bountiful, Utah, said: “I didn’t really know what I was doing. But I had an overwhelming urge to be paraplegic like my aunt. I didn’t know there was anything wrong with that.
