i got a small tattoo on my back in a very spur of the moment manic phase....thankfully i still like it! of course, it hurt like crazy when i got it, then it got infected....so i won't do it again (i hope)...

I have 7 piercings, got my first one (lip) November 2006, couple of weeks before I tried to kill myself. Every time I've got another one its been a reflection of the pain I want to inflict on myself at the time. They are a part of who I am though so I dont want to get rid of them just yet. I think if I get better I will though...

I have two tattoos and my ear is pierced three times. I think it's a way of expressing yourself. I designed my own tattoos after much thought, so they have meaning.

I'm 59 and have no piercings or tattos. But if that's your thing, go ahead! When I was living in Pakistan as a child I saw piercings and tattoos that are still unmatched by what I see in the west.

My belly button is pierced did it eons ago, I don't think there is anything wrong with it, I did it because it represented a period in my life.

I have three tats...my ankle was first,then I got a real cute tat done on my ass,then I got an even better one on my shoulder.I would do it again if I wanted too.No regrets other than if I ever make it to a nursing home,there will be a few laughs and comments about my ass one!

I have one ear pierced four times and the other three and one tattoo. I designed the tattoo myself. I've had it about 5 years and I love it. I'd like to get one or two other small ones. I think piercings and tattoos can be tasteful. It just depends.

I love body modifications!!!! I have /have had several piercings.I had my labret,monroe and belly button done and let them grow up.Guess I grew outta them.I still have my nose and tongue done and I love them I can't think of ever taking them out.
I have lotsa tattoos.Skulls on my wrists, my chest pc,my Munsters 1/2 sleeve, A human heart w/bat wings and social D lyrics,A dragon that goes down my spine and a skull w/cherry blossoms on the back of my neck.I cannot wait to get more!!!!

PA .... that is hardcore.I have a friend who just got one.His GF loves it though.LOL

This last hypomanic phase I had, I was terribly intent on getting a nose piercing with a small hoop and a tattoo on my neck!

Keep in mind that this would be completely out of character for me and would have been something I would have definitely regretted. I'm SO GLAD my husband stopped me!

I was going to get them, though!

I got a smallish tattoo on my back when I was in Las Vegas, I still don't regret it. I look st tattoos and piercings as body art!

well i have two tattoos, and ive had a total of 15 piercings, but i only have 7 of them now. i did some of them when i was manic but ive never regreted anything!

i have 5 tats and 5 peircings dont regret any of them

What the hell is a PA?

Maybe I am naive, oh wait, Prince Albert?!? OOOWWWWW!

All my tats mark a turning point in my life.

My first, shortly after I turned 18. An ankh with roses. It was pure rebellion.

My second, A large black butterfly on the small of my back. (yeah, a tramp stamp. but I had one before they became popular) I was 2 mos sober and needed to DO something that would get my adrenaline going. The butterfly turned out to be prophetic.

My third was a chinese kangi on my left wrist. It stands for Earth and is covering the scars from slitting my wrist. I had just found my dad and was moving across the country. It was a time of fresh starts, renewal. The earth heals itself, and so would I.

My fourth, a tribal butterfly on the base of my neck, just above my shoulder blades. I got it to hurt myself. I was very self destructive at the time. Turns out it is my favorite tattoo.

Tats and piercings for me are all about the pain involved in the process. I love it. It makes me feel alive. It is a total aphrodisiac as well. I don't have any current piercings and only four tats. But I have an addition to my last one planned. I want to add the names and birthdates of all three of my kids.

Tats mark change in my life and I think all body art is beautiful.

well I dont regret mine yet...lol...although my penis is sore today. I have my nipples too and ears. and 5 tatoos. I kinda feel Im too old but I dont know im sure my kids will hear about this new one and be like OMG daddy why?
