Have you ever hurt yourself from playing video games? Be it from frustration or poor placement of hands.

Of course, just look at me now

I tore every ligament in both of my wrists on a 275lb clean and jerk

That, combined with carpal tunnel, has completely destroyed my right wrist. It's constantly in pain, cracks at all times, and can barely bend back.

shitty diet and posture kept me from playing video games for 6 years. arm pain

Playing games on the original Xbox controller. Unnatural arm position combined with playing button mashers.

>>344441869

years of violently jerking off with one hand whilst rubbing my balls and pinching my nipples with the other have made my muscles and connective tissue incredibly tough.

Yes, the Vita gives me hand cramps.

I replayed MGS3 on it about a year ago and it was crippling me. JRPGs and stuff are fine, think it's just how I hold it when I need to use the sticks.

Tangentially related, but I use a little folding knife to open packages, and managed to stab it right through the top of my left thumb, while cutting open the packaging for a second hand PS2.

Still not sure how I managed it. Guy had packaged it like a madman, layers and layers of padding and tape and shit, so it was a chore to hack through it all, and then suddenly the knife is sticking out of my hand. Went in at the edge of the fingernail, then bent underneath it.

I've always been rather composed when it comes to vidya frustration. At worst I would turn of the console/close the program without saving.

>poor placement of hands.

Is this really a thing outside of the claw for MonHun and playing spacies in Melee?

Some blisters back then. The NES pad did that to your hands.

>>344442053
I've popped my left shoulder out of place three times, one of the times I popped it back in and kept doing my routine.

It's gotten better, but even now years later if I military press too hard it still acts up, probably looking at permanent damage here.

One time I was playing KOTOR on my xbox, and something cool happened I don't remember what and I was so happy I jumped out of my bed, started dancing to the doorway, and then I accidentally kicked the door frame so hard I broke my toe and had to stay in bed for like a week.
>>
>>344443610

I also chopped the end of the same thumb while cutting vegetables and had to have it stitched back on. Not a huge chunk, like 1cm at an angle so it didn't catch the nail at all. Went to the hospital with it hanging off, wrapped in a pair of boxer shorts because they were the first thing I grabbed.

It still looks mostly fine, and feels perfectly normal, surprisingly.

Yep. That was the only thing that kept me sane. I couldn't really sleep because of how much it hurt so I just played the shit out of it.

>and I was so happy I jumped out of my bed
This reminded me of something I did when I was like 6, though I didn't hurt myself. I was playing Pokemon Red/Blue, and looking for a Pikachu in Viridian Forest. When I finally found one after a while, I was ecstatic and jumped off my bed. My landing caused the cartridge to shift or something and reset the game.

Then I cried.
