I don't quite understand your request but you could try healing with food and drink or playing on Hardcore (Hardcore requires Doctors bags to fix limbs).

Basically I want all of my character's limbs broken so I can have eeye for an eye at full effect.

Using a stimpack directly from the inventory should only increase HP.

Its opening up to the Status page and clicking on a limb repairs broken limbs. However, sleeping will fix them anyway.

If I'm wrong about that, then that only works that way in Hardcore mode.

Stimpack heals all limbs slightly if used on the whole body outside of hardcore

Use food to heal only and your limbs should stay broken.

Play hardcore, only doctor bags heal limbs in that mode.

should I keep my head non crippled for an explosive eye for an eye build? I realised I lose 4 perception when my head is crippled.

Play hardcore mode. You can only heal limbs with doctors bag, hydra, healing poultice or a doctor npc.

Hardcore mode isn't hard though. At all. I've actually never played the game without it since release.

It doesn't make the game harder, it just adds in food, water and sleep needs, companions can die, and stimpacks heal over time instead of instantly (like fallout 4 stimpacks). Oh and gives ammo weight, but ammo doesn't weigh much

Run hardcore and never use doctor bags, or only use non-stims/food for healing.

I wish there was a way to turn off the fuzzy visual for the concussion effect without healing the limb.

Yeah harcore is not really hardcore.

The only thing "hardcore" about it is that companions become non essential, other than that and adding weight to ammo it feels more like a part of the game rather than a hard mode.
