But interestingly all the same narrative as for transgenderism complete with suicide threat and lets try reversible disability to check the person is certain before making it permanent. This could easily be the next mental health condition that people are demanding surgeries and treatment for on the NHS.
Some experts believe it is caused by a neurological fault, in which the brain's mapping system cannot see a certain body part.
For years she bandaged herself secretly, but now lives openly with her condition, despite facing intolerance, insults, and sometimes online threats.
Chloe first realised she was different at the age of four, after visiting her Aunt Olive, who was using leg braces after a bike accident.
While researching the braces online, Chloe read about BIID for the first time and found out there were others like her.
"It was a huge relief," said Chloe. "I wasn't a freak - there were hundreds of others like me."
Chloe writes for the BIID support group www.transabled.org and believes it is important to raise awareness about the condition.
Psychiatriast Dr Mark Malan, who treats Chloe, said: "The question I often ask is, is it better to have somebody pretending to use a wheelchair, or to commit suicide?
"One possibility could be to do some sort of nerve blocking so that that limb could not actually be used for a period of time, to let the patient test the reality of being physically disabled temporarily.
"It would give BIID sufferers a chance to change their minds if they wanted to."
