seriously warped!

I just cannot fathom this:

blinded herself on purpose

yep, i'm totally confused......

Me too. I first read about her in an online news article, and there's a medical name for this sort of thing.

Some people feel the need to have amputations, horrible disfigurements or, as this woman's done, be blinded. It's obviously a mental problem they have, but just a worse step up from body dysmorphia, where folk think they're ugly in some way but no one else sees it.

What she did must've been agonising, and it could've resulted in something even worse. The person who obliged her needs locking up, as well.

the world is a crazy place and it effects people in different ways...

May do, but I think these sort of folk manage crazy very well, without outside influences. The woman's demented.
