I used to give myself poison ivy to avoid going to school. I'de walk out around the house, find some and rub it all over my face, arms and legs. I was extremely allergic to it and even had to go to the hospital once beacuse it was swelling up my throat so I was having trouble breathing. I did this probally 3 or 4 times throughout elementary school. I never told anyone, they thought I got it by accident, playing outside or something.
