Personal life
Shaddix has admittedly taken part in self-mutilation, which once led him to a Las Vegas hospital where he had to have 11 staples removed from his head.[1] It is believed he adopted the name 'Dick' due to a teenage incident where he carved the word into his buttock. He has also struggled with alcohol addiction during his career,[2] but now he is, according to himself, clean and sober. He also has a wife, Kelly Shaddix and two sons.
