It's a common issue. Some people can find them while others can't. I myself have a hard time locating them and compressing them to pass out. The threads here suggest finding a different method. Either SN or firearms.

If you are having troubles finding the sweet spot with your hands, perhaps you could test with a rope setup or a tourniquet?
I've found that the sweet spot was different (where my head and neck meet, for me) with rope and tourniquet than when I found it with my fingers (next to the addam's apple).

So you found it by rope

Yeah, had found it first by pressing fingers on my neck. But then later, when I tried with a tourniquet and with rope too, I found the sweet spot to be much higher than when I found by hand. So, I suggest forgoing the fingers and test with material you plan to cbt with.
