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

okay, for instance: everyone who's used ecstacy before is well-aware of the teeth-grinding. because of my usage, i have ground down one of my lower canine teeth to where it's curved from another tooth "resting" in it. does this make sense?
another instance: we were doing whippets one night and the balloon slipped off the cracker. the gas started to spray all over my husband's palm and scorched it. it didn't really hurt, he said, it was just very weird...and he had this dark, purplish mark on his hand for around 4 months, then it went away.
what are everyone else's stories??
 
Requiem for a dream battle scars? Dude i could never get like that... But I have succesfully cut down on all that nose hair with ketamine! And you guys all waste your money on those stupid little trimmers....
Haha
 
I definitely have calluses and burn marks on my thumbs from using the lighter so much when sparking up a bowl. I have singed my eyelashes, fingernails, clothing, and a bunch of other things.
 
ha lol! i've singed my eyelashes, too! i was so ashamed of myself, even though i don't think anyone noticed.
 
I lit one of my dreads on fire once, I was very high and I attempted to lit a cigarette once I got back to school. Luckily I managed to put it out before my whole head was on fire.
 
i have a scar that runs the entire length of my right thigh from trying to be nice while i was rolling.
here's the story: a friend and i went to one of the socal outdoor renegades this past summer. we both took a pill (E) and hung out for a little while. they were having issues with sound not being there, so we decided we were going to bail and make our own party. we went driving down the mountain and as the sun started coming up, we decided to pull over and enjoy the scenery. my friend decared, "wow, it's so beautiful!" and proceeded to get naked. (damn hippies! ;) ) i followed suit and soon we were both parading around the mountains naked watching the sunrise.
my friend accidentally kicked her shoes off the mountain we were on. she dismissed it pretty casually, but i decided i was going to pull a rescue mission and get her shoes back for her. now mind you, this is a really granite-y mountain, super slippery, and i do not have the shield of clothing to protect me. i retrieve the shoes and climb back up, but i chopped myself up pretty bad. i probably look less hot naked when i'm dripping blood, but the shoes were saved and that's what counts.
my leg scarred, but the rest of my wounds healed up nicely. i'm lucky i didn't lose a nipple and half a buttcheek on that adventure.
great topic, by the way!
 
I injected ketamine intramuscurally into my left thigh a couple months ago (at least 8 weeks ago) -- and I hit a nerve.
I'm a very experienced user of needles, and I have never in my countless previous experiences caused any sort of harm, even temporary harm, to myself via injection. This was really just bad luck -- I had the misfortune of hitting the wrong spot on my leg.
I didn't realize it at the time, but a few days after the injection, I noticed that the injection area was numb and felt strange when I put pressure on it. It also would 'twinge' in a weird way when I would use the muscle.
It has gotten a lot better since then, maybe 75% better, but I still notice it on a daily basis and I'm not sure that it will ever completely heal -- nerve damage is pretty serious and not easily repaired. It doesn't seem to have gotten any better over the past month either, which is another reason I think I'll have this 'battle wound' for life.
Be careful, needle-users! Even if you a safe, clean, and cautious, you can't avoid all harm.
 
word! i'll have this weird-shaped tooth my whole life because i'm too embarrassed to see a dentist! i mean, when i was about to get braces all those years ago, my new dentist/orthodontist was examining my two front teeth and asked if i bit my fingernails (because they were slightly chipped). i was embarrassed that they were able to figure that out, i don't want to have to explain this one!
 
I did accidentally torch my bangs last week while sparking up a bowl...the moment I flipped the lighter on, a lock of hair popped violently out of my ponytail and shot right into the flame. Made a nice little blaze for a second or two...luckily my hair is so thick it's impossible to notice. Stunk up the house really well though...
 
I have two burn marks on my hand from using an oven under the influence of marijuana ... hahaha
One of them looks pretty cool actually, it sort of looks like a tiger claw right there on my hand (because of those metal bars in the oven that burnt me) but the problem is, it's going away, which sucks cause it looked good.
 
-One callus on thumb from lighting lighters
-Several burnt eyebrows from fire
-One injection-related mark a piece for my wrist and inside elbow
-One scar on face and several on my shoulders from itching and picking at myself on methamphetamine and opiates
-One dark mark on my hand from someone extinguishing a cigarette on it (they were pretty mad at me at the time)
 
*starting from the top of my head*
-scar from the top of my skull to the center of my forehead from a drunk driving incident.
-both eyebrows split and scarred from falling on my face and other stupid shit.
-center of my nose, broken and scarred from sliding off the hood of a saab directly into a toyota tailgate at a phish show (atlanta 97). shrooms, percocet, and jim beam.
-lip split under nose at a keg party, because of a fight over a girl in high school, who i cant even remember the name of.
-large scar running under my chin. I told a gutterpunk named "raw sewage" that his dad was the leader of a gay biker squad. He kicked me in the chin.
-two front teeth: knocked out in an acid induced rage, over a large crystal that got broken. a natuarally formed rock, that I had formed some sort of hippy love for.
-a badly made tattoo that I got at the national rainbow gathering in pennsylvania in 99. It's substandard work, and I still haven't fixed it. I traded a big soapstone with "420" carved into it, 10 hits of acid and a bowl sized nugget for it. I blame that decision on drug use as well :D
-on my left hand I have a big scar when I was about 15 years old. I left my dishwashing job at the "stowe away" with alcohol I stole. I came home loaded, knowing no one else was there, and proceeded to fall down the stairs, the broken bottle breaking my fall, shredding my hand up. I went to the hospital, claiming I did it at work.
-on my right hand I have a bunch of scars from that same drunken driven incident I pulled at seventen. Pieces of window were still migrating out of my hand two or three years later.
I have more. but im tired of typing (:
 
I went to a punk club wearing a fine suit, only to find that it was the annual gathering of the local motorcycle gang. I snorted WAY too much speed, drank WAY too much booze and proceeded to storm the stage. I got onto the stage and started headbanging and going nuts, untill I got so tangled in the cables that I fall face-first into the guitar player and we were both knocked down forcefully by the impact.
Suffice to say I was helped out of the club/situation by friends, but I remember only bits and pieces. When I awoke the following morning there was blood all over my face and shirt and a nasty cut on my forehead. To this day I still have that scar to remind me of the perils of overdoing it ;)

A couple months ago, I was stoned and getting some food from the kitchen. Walking back to my room, I turned the lights off and walked right into the door frame. I had a really big black bruise running from my brow down to my chin. It almost looked like Chris Farley's in Tommy Boy, but verticle. =)
 
these are great you guys! keep 'em coming!
kosmicdog: impressive list, bud!!
anyone REDUCED their usage because of their scars? can't say that i have, but just curious....
 
A 40-stitch scar running from eyebrow to temple to remind me that speed does not make a person resistant to a wrought-iron chair. Looks rather swashbuckling, almost like a dueling scar, if I do say so myself. But it was long ago, and those days are over, I'm glad to say.
 
Not really my story but happened to a friend of mine
While tripping on acid, he got appendacitis. Now he's got a nice scar on his belly from where the docs cut him open. All while tripping!!
Talk about a buzz kill!
