A young man has reportedly cut off his own penis due to highness.
The young man’s father who is distraught by the move reported that his son got high on a potent form of cannabis and ended up severing his own penis.
The unnamed man told BBC that his son after getting high on cannabis became paranoid and endured psychotic episodes after smoking the illegal drug.
He said: “He switched from a very bright bubbly lad to … I can only describe him as a waste of space and I’ve had that conversation with him and he understands that.”
Speaking to BBC Radio 5 Live, the father added: “He became delusional, he used to sleep with a tennis racket in his bed because he thought people were living in the walls. I remember one instance he was telling us all about the fact that mermaids exist and it was just a whole tragic trip down a hill.”
Emma Barnett, the host of the show however asked about a psychotic episode the young man endured in which he cut off his own penis which the father described as “devastating.”
“It was absolutely devastating, you can’t imagine anything of that nature happening.”
“The whole episode was just surreal actually … it was almost as if peering in through a window and it was happening to somebody else.”
The concerned father revealed that his son is still recovering physically with more surgeries in view although he is in a “really good form” mentally.
Noting that his son has given up on alcohol and other vices, the father added: “He actually has no real memory of anything that happened. Maybe that’s for the best.”
