Watching this a second time shows this man was quite intelligent. He learned that an on the spot attempt wouldn't work and that the pain would stop him. He'd need to be medicated and make sure no one could se what he was doing till it was too late. He kept his ears and eyes open and thought of a better plan.

Abi Keast abi imagine you have stolen someone’s wedding ring after there husband died. You carry guilt and Ashament. Or your carrying something so bad you just want to get it out. For me as such it felt I stole your limb and I needed to return it. Or that I have an additional leg that i know nobody notices but for me everytime someone looks at me they are looking at my stolen leg. Abi I respect that you have such integrity I know a lot of people who shame me but I’m so happy in my life before I contemplated suicide every day. I suppose it’s like being gay, you feel different about yourself and just need to change no matter what people think of you. It’s like why do transgender people transition because they were born in the wrong body same with me my leg felt like it wasn’t mine. Unfortunately a lot people do this for attention however I’m not like that I needed to remove it or it’s like I needed to transition.

It was very hard for him to understand more then anything. But now I’m loving life and that’s what is important to him. I told my daughters that mummy has got a bubu in her head that makes her feel sad about her leg and when mummy removed her leg and gets a new one I will be the best mummy for you. And yes I can have prosthetic legs it’s just my own original leg that was no belonging to me.

Seriously the best doctor in series and I hope I can become like him. It seems like he's studied a lot of German and french idealism in the sense of self and respects that there is nothing absolute and we have to see other people's experiences, because that's what medicine is based on. It's in the middle of anthropocentric and hardcore sciences.

I like everything about this story apart Dr. Charles feeling down for not being able to foresaw this outcome. While the patient's condition has already been described, no doctor should blame himself for not being able to prevent such an outcome. It's true that, from a certain point of view, it was an happy ending, but the ''best'' happy ending would have been the patient being able to cope with his pathology, so it was normal for Charles to aim to that.

6:50 anyone notice that he was sitting on the moving bed?!?

[@megsmith6758]

After he had the nerve block and he was speaking to Dr. Charles, he glanced down at the tubes before asking for the covers to be pulled up. As someone who has struggled with mental illness myself, I know that look, it is one of desperation.

[@pancon9947]

when he takes his arm off and hes happy its so sad cause to quote the doctor it is a happy ending for him

[@isaharbers7011]

“We were able to save it” Normal people: thank u doctor! This weird ass guy: *ahw shit*

[@pinklemonade6597]

I've seen documentaries with stuff like this, it's really sad, there was this really young boy, like 12 of something that wanted his leg cut off

[@britishbirdie9113]

I’ve read a news article shared to Facebook before about a woman who wanted both her legs gone and she did everything to try and make them bad enough to be amputated and the comments on it was “selfish woman, any wheelchair bound person would love to have their legs” and stuff like that but it isn’t the person’s fault they feel they don’t own a certain limb, it’s how their brain isn’t connected properly.

[@glaxticalien8020]

Thank you for everything

[@PS3PCDJ]

Dr Charles is the only self-aware and introspective doctor in this series

[@KATlEMAY]

I like it how he just sat on the bed 😂

[@daniellemorgan4949]

Omg you guys are the best doctors and nurses ever you all have inspired me I wanna be a doctor or nurse one day I hope I'll be great as you guys are ♥️♥️

[@BonnieAngel141]

Gives me the chills everytime

[@focshi5805]

Imagine if you just woke up one day, looked at your arm or leg or another part of your body and thought "Wait... That's not mine •-•"

[@nandi171]

Oof, that boi made me disappointed!

[@raafjansen8488]

Loved this portrail of BIID. Very thoughtfull.

[@user-ho4tb5qe7v]

Dysphoria is horrible, I had it when I was younger but strangely enough though I found that doing something to it to make it mine helped, for me it was a piercings but a tattoo would probably also help. It would've been nice to see him recover without managing to lose his arm since he still probably has that warped thinking but I guess not every ep can end completely happily

[@FenrirAldebrand]

I've tried giving myself a tattoo on my finger in an attempt to make it my own, but nothing I've tried has worked. So when I see my nurse practitioner in a week I'm going to finally tell her about my BIID and maybe we can talk amputation instead of me hurting myself to force an amputation.

[@Trayleen]

I've heard about this ilness. It's so disturbing. You can even see it on CT scan. Some people even die trying to cut off their legs or arms by themselves

[@lenyxwulf5047]

I'm amazed that Dr. Choi said that he got played

[@widowmakersbooty2253]

As soon as he asked for the covers I knew what was gonna happen.

[@noobjo.mp4196]

0:04 ''That guy's crazy :)''

[@BCGaming666]

I thought he had someone else’s arm

[@MDKurosoda]

the moment tha patient asked fir the nerve block, I knew he was gonna cut that arm off.

[@canuck3703]

I like how Chicago Med and Chicago P.D can link together

[@zahralovespopcorn]

I have watched this clip like 100x and I still feel shocked every time that he did that.

[@MuzammilKhan-mj6zm]

I feel so sorry for the poor man

[@12Raven]

Me 2 when i saw his arm covered i was almost in tears 😭

[@Sapphiresenthiss]

"I'm not crazy. I've been on the Internet, there are others like me!" 4chan in two sentences.

[@sidmarnica]

Best clips in the Chicago series.hellyea

[@savagescorpio4489]

HELL-A-YEAH BOI!!!

[@LordDarthNintendoe]

"This guy is craaaaaaazy", the man from the ambulance lol.

[@embersun.]

This perfectly fits with one of the main reasons I am pro choice. Women used to go through extreme measures to get sketchy abortions because they were so desperate that they would hurt themselves and risk dying instead of having safe procedures.

[@luciatat4084]

That is a wise choice, not one that takes a life.
