Have you ever pierced yourself. When I was 16 I pierced my own belly button with a needle and ice. I also pierced myself somewhere else I probably can't say on here. It actually didn't hurt at all. Now that I'm 30 I realize how dumb that was and how I could of done serious damage but it's all part of being a teenager. Not the greatest decisions.

Yes, but not on my own belly button. I pierced it on my ear, but with three earrings on my left ear. That was when I was a teenager, but now, my three whole in my ear has been closed for how many years. I did not put any earring on my left ear anymore.

I'm not big on piercings except for ears, the usual place on the ear lobe, and possibly the belly button. But one should never do it themselves because of the chance of infection and other problems. Infections could cause serious problems and especially a teenager might not even know that they are taking proper precautions to avoid infection.

I was about 16 when I pierced my bellybutton.. and also my arm, for some reason. Teens can do the strangest things trying to seem cool.

I didn't do something like that when I was a teenager. I have pierced ears though and my parents let a professional do that to me when I was still a baby. Many times I think I have decided to get a tattoo but I keep on changing my mind on what I want to get. I decided to get henna first and see if it is something that I would like. Oftentimes I would change my mind until I finally decided not to get anything since I get tired of it sooner.
