does anyone have any "battle wounds" they can attribute to their drug use?

lots: teeth missing from fights i instigated while fucked up on drink and speed (although there are false teeth there now), scars, stiches etc from above too. some track marks, some holes where skin popping went wrong. a scar above my left eye done while high on E with a gf on a fairground ride bar went up and whacked me. God knows what i look like on the inside: would like a new heart, liver, lungs and brain chemistry, if anyone is willing to donate.

I'm so glad I never hurt myself while high! I would freek out. But drunk, lol thats another story.

Age 15 at a party, was shit faced running around. Never give kids glass bottles! We were outside around a pool and me & my friend run up these concrete stairs w/ bottles in hand and I tripped fell, smashed the bottle still in my hand, cut up my hand and then I fell on the bottle and I have 3 inch scar on my leg.
Another drunk scar, I was in foster care & selters when I was 16, I was out drinking came home, they let me go to sleep. I wake up still drunk, I slept for only 2 hours and the foster mother starts giving me shit, so as I'm going to leave I hit the door to open it, my hand goes right threw the glass. 4 stiches in my right arm. I even took the stiches out myself.

I also have a tooth worn down a bit from rolling. I never chipped it. You can hardly tell unless you look. Its one of the very frount 2 teeth. I thank god my smile is is crooked.
 
My toenails always bear the brunt of my drug fuked adventures, I danced so hard my big toenail actually broke and fell off, right back to the quick. It took almost a year to grow back, any night out guarntees bruised toes.

I'm one of those people you see dancin like they're doin aerobics on crack...
 
i was with a group of friends on hampstead heath in london one time (for some background see: the story of magicglasses)

this one time, there were about 6 of us tripping and one sober friend (we'll call him david) who agreed to 'look after us'. anyway, we were all tripping hard in the park and it starting raining. we took cover under an oak tree. david was about a hundred yards away and we were all huddled under the tree motioning him to join us. soon, it was raining hard and he ran towards the cover of the tree. as he arrived under the tree, he ran right into a low branch and knocked himself out.

picture this - we're all tripping our asses off, it's pissing with rain and the one sober member of our group is lying unconscious at our feet. nobody said a word as we had a collective vision of showing up at the emergency room like a bunch of drug-addled idiots... it was playing out, in our minds, like some crap government anti-drug commercial. "but he's our friend..."

he came to after about 30 seconds with a huge comedy-cartoon bump on his forehead. all's well that ends well.

alasdair
 
when i had a gravity bong i had calllouses on my knees from kneeling in front of it all the time

who knows how all the mdma and lsd has fried my brain and im sure my lungs arent too pretty from all the dank i smoke.
 
Once I was using denatured alcohol to clean my piece, and we figured, because we were drunk, that setting it on fire would help it evaporate faster.

Well, when it came time for me to put the fire out, I just dropped a box on top of the dish to smother it, but instead it exploded, sending burning glass in all directions.

Somehow I was the only one injured, from pieces of glass hitting my feet, but the worst came when I picked up the bowl, not realizing how hot it would be...

You know in Indiana Jones when that guy picks up that hot medallion? Yeah, kinda like that. You could see the outline of the bowl perfectly until it started to blister.
 
The only real injuries i hav are burns from when i was too wizzed up and thought it would be a great idea to put cigerettes out on myself and one time when i was drunk a beer bottle fell out of a fridge and smashed on my toe - the nail has fallen off grrrrrrr really disgusting in my opinion.
 
deviated septum (not fully); and noticable vasoconstriction (lots of tingling) in my left leg. I also get muscle spasms from time to time, i don't know if this has anything to do w/ my drug use--but i've only noticed it the past few years or so.

Oh and a burn every week or so from being stupid w/ my glass steam-roller. I probably have lung problems as well from all the shit i smoke (tobacco isn't one of them).

No track marks or major fuck ups there...

guess im one of the lucky ones.
 
I managed to chip a very small bit off the bottom of one of my 2 front teeth last night. It was pretty crazy, luckily it isnt as noticable as it could well have been

I also now have sore, red lips

- Deep (nearly absessing cavities) in my molars from my ecky days. I had to get a root canal in one. I've left the others untouched because I use them to claim extreme toothache and get scripts

- a weird black little hole on my thigh from when I injected oxycontin into the muscle there. Looking back this was a really brainless thing to do

- scar on my inside elbow from another shot gone wrong

- a burn mark on my side (lower rib-cage area). I nodded out with a lit cigarette in my hand - the smell of burning fabric and smouldering skin woke me. I couldn't feel the pain at the time.

- Returning after binging on percs and booze at this club I walked straight into a lamppost. It didn't hurt but it broke my glasses. My best pair ever - they were expensive buggers too.

- About 4 years ago I came back after a nasty Calculus midterm (3 yr. university). and proceeded to get drunk. After polishing off 4 beers (each) in about 45 minutes my friend and I decided to go for a bike ride. Now it's -20 outside and dark. Sheets of black ice on the streets. I'm speeding along when I hit ice and wipe out. The handle bar pins my right thumb to the asphalt. It doesn't hurt much at the time but the next morning it's like a green apple growing out from under my thumb. At the hospital they tell me it's a very slight hairline fracture and I have to wear this splint for about 3 weeks to fix it. Also, not to disturb the thumb.

Now at the time I wasn't seeing anyone. Not disturbing the thumb meant no masturbating (I'm right handed and could not jerk myself off with my left). 3 weeks without masturbation - that's impossible (and it should be). So of course two days later I removed the splint and spent a good 20 minutes making love to my right hand. The swelling came back with a vengeance and I had to go back to the hospital. They told me it was a full blown fracture now and I'd have to wear a cast for 6 weeks. I think the nurse twigged what had happened cuz when she saw the x-rays and the fracture the second time she started chuckling and shaking her head.

I learned to jack off with my left hand.

- And, this one has me truly worried. I've a more or less constant pain in my liver. I'm assuming it's from constant use. It's this weird localised ache that increases when I drink or have too much apap in my drugs. It's not particularly uncomfortable but as I said I'm quite concerned.

i always hit my vein in the same spot so i have a nasty scar on my arm that will definately be there for life.

bunch of little circles on my arm from extinguishing cigarettes and matches on my skin while i was drunk.

scar on my stomach from a burning nugget. also all my clothes have burn marks in them from nodding out with lit smokes.

disfigured knuckle from punching brick walls while drunk and pissed off.

all the rest of my many scars and injuries were gotten while sober. im just clumsy sometimes.
 
My arms look like bloody hell... ever seen requiem for a dream?? that guy gets the really really bad arm infection and shit form shooting up. My arms arnt nothing like that, but somewhat near.. its pathetic. Really ugly, bruised and scared and big big big nasty track marks. i cant bend my arms with hurting..

i shot up in my hand and wrist a long ass time ago and i have huge marks that are still there.

my teeth are fucked over from all my meth & E use.

Ive probally got alot more but what do i care...
 
One night I was using fentanyl to help me get to sleep. Not wearing the patch, just taking small doses of the gel under my tounge. I'd dose, nod off/sleep for 30 minutes or an hour, wake up and redose, and do it all over again. At one point I woke up and took a larger dose than I should have, I woke up in the morning with scratch marks all along my stomach and thighs. That suprised me...I don't even have sharp fingernails because I chew them constantly. Opiate itch got the best of me in my sleep I guess...

I don't have any lasting scars from drug use though...the worst have been burns. I was stoned and frying some eggs, spilled oil on the back of my hand. That left a nice mark for a few weeks. Another time I was hitting a ball of hash in a pipe and the hash fell out of the bowl...not thinking I tried to pick it up off the carpet only to find out it was still red hot. Burned the fuck out of my fingers and I had 2 nice holes in the carpet. Minor burns from a hot glass pipe or bowl.
 
man my friend used to burn over 8 blunts a day, and eventually he smoked so much that he got these nasty ass black scabs and burn marks on the back of his throat. he had to go to the doctor, and he'd never seen any damage like that done solely from marijuana... this dude set a new level for pot-junkyhood . he had to take some medicine and the doctor put a salve on it, and it eventually healed, i think
 
i woke up one morning after doing alot of heroin to find that the entire toenail on my left big toe was red from blood under the nail. it took almost a year for the thing to grow out (it was even on the part of the nail that was still under teh skin), and at the bottom of the mark was a 1/2 millimeter deep gash in the nail.
 
SFA, at least you learned something ;)

I have a feeling I'll be telling my one and only story to my kids and grandkids some day ...

End of Freshman year at Uni, partying with some graduating friends ... I'd only recently started drinking, and never had hard liquor before. Some of them decide to climb the dome on campus - this thing is the 2nd largest wooden dome in the world; it could fit the statue of liberty inside, no joke. Anyhow, I split a bottle of vodka with a kid .. we each down a quarter of the bottle (750ml) and I end up running up the dome, after much hesitation - I'd had no intention of doing this; I'm a very cautious and reserved person. That goes well.
But then we polish off the bottle, so I've had the equivalent of 12 shots of Smirnoff, when the most I'd ever had was a 6-pack.
Since I was so trashed, I couldn't manage to get to the top ... I tried running up 30 times, sliding down each time because I couldn't quite keep my balance. But what did I know, I was invincible!! :D
Finally, on my last failed attempt, I slid down a long ways again and managed to jam my ankle terribly at the bottom. I walked home that nite, but for the next 2 weeks I couldn't walk at all; it was messed up for 2 months .. X-rays negative, but it was painful and inoperable.

Seems to finally be 99% healed now, luckily. I've done lots of other dumb things thanks to alcohol since (driving, nearly killing myself on a mountain .. 8)) ... I'm wiser now thank god, and still unharmed.

I suppose its a bit too late to tell everyone to be safe!
 
I was tripping on a beach in India, it was late at night, I decided to walk back to my room. As I walked up some steps to come off the beach I lost my footing and scrapped all the skin off the bottom of my leg where the bone is. That was 8 years ago and my scar is still beautiful.

Also in India. Riding a bike along adirt track, stoned. Suddenly caught sight of the paddy fields and, my god, I had never seen such a vibrant and beautiful and lush green in my life. It was hypnotic. So hypnotic that I didnt see the impending hole that was in the road and so consequently fell in it at speed, bike and all. Got a gash on my right side where my hip bone is. Again a lovely scar.

Beautiful beautiful memories.

Fucking crazy hippy!
