I've attempted with partial and full

Partial - not my thing, could never seemed to get it quite right. Mostly just ended up feeling sore and feeling like my head was going to explode. Other people find this one easier so maybe I don't have great anatomy for this, I'm not sure.

Full - One actual attempt at this, I feel like I got most of it correct surprisingly despite having read up very little about it beforehand. I used a thick leather belt for mine and overall I found the sensation more uncomfortable than painful. I could feel the pressure around my throat but I could still breathe more or less normally (which is what's supposed to happen, crushing the windpipe leads to a much more painful and unpleasant experience). I failed because I stepped off of my bed and therefore had a chance to back out. This was also my first attempt and so first experience with SI. I had a voice in my head yelling at me that I didn't want to do this, I didn't want to die etc. My vision was going black around the edges and all noises were like fuzzy but this voice convinced me to try and get out. In getting back on the bed I panicked and struggled to free myself, given how little movement room I had in my setup it was still tough to back out even with a mattress to stand on. Once out I fell down and cried and cried on my bed, feeling so unhappy that I couldn't do it and trying to will myself to try again. If I didn't have a way to get out I would have surely ctb that day and honestly I wish I did. Also, if I had known I would experience SI and that it wasn't the 'real me' actually wanting to live or something I don't think I would've backed out at all honestly. Although it failed I don't think it was a terrible experience and if I had the opportunity to ctb via full suspension again I probably would consider it.

Attempted partial, did not even pass out

My ideal method is full suspension, but don't have anything I could suspend myself from in my house

I have to travel a lot for work (I hate it) and every time I'm in a hotel I check for places I could hang myself from, which would obviously be partial, but maybe with more space between my head and floor than what I had when I attempted, but I haven't found anything I have confidence wouldn't break. Since a failed attempt in a hotel because I broke the clothes hanger would be pretty embarrassing, and cost me money. The handlebars in ADA hotel restrooms are intriguing to me since they definitely could support the weight, but they're so damn close to the floor

I failed because I stepped off of my bed and therefore had a chance to back out. This was also my first attempt and so first experience with SI.

Curious, what did you use to suspend yourself from?

Thanks for sharing. Happy that you shared with us. May I ask how you secured the belt above you?

Attempted partial on a tree. I failed because it was hurting my neck. For couple of weeks my throat was in pain. I couldn't eat or drink without pain. Hopefully, SN method works as I dont want to attempt partial again.

I tried the partial a few years ago with a belt tied to the door, but I couldn't lose consciousness, I just felt my head was about to explode.

last year I tried full hanging in an old abandoned park at night, I used a very resistant nautical rope tied to a wooden structure, as soon as I tried to let go I felt the rope strangling me like a snake and hurting terribly; after several attempts I returned home and burst into tears.

Curious, what did you use to suspend yourself from?

It was a metal curtain rod with three supports, middle and sides.

Thanks for sharing. Happy that you shared with us. May I ask how you secured the belt above you?

No worries, glad I can help. Literally just a simple knot, looped it over the pole then tucked the end in to form a knot. Then pulled on it hard to secure it and make sure it stayed. That did the trick.

 

[Pain In The Ass]

What about one of these? The clip on the end enables you to quickly create a 'loop', that would tighten under a load, with the other end attached to something. Designed to pull a 2 ton car, so very strong. (I'm wording this carefully so that I am not discussing the item's use for anything in particular)

it seems the most common reason for failing at full is lack of privacy time, but otherwise it is a very reliable method and not too painful I experimented enough with a thin rope by holding the other end of the rope, and almost my full weight was suspended on my neck like 70% of my body weight I can make pass quickly if I want to, the level of pain and comfortableness depends most often on the rope's diameter and where the noose and knot are placed, having noose directly below my jaw is unbearable and ineffective and, I'm afraid in a full suspension that the noose goes up due to gravity before I lose consciousness, that's what most is putting me off from doing it honestly, but I gotta do it anyway I think it will not be that bad after all because the noose will tighten around my neck due to the slip knot I am planning to lube it too, so it will be unlikely for it to go up easily due to skin friction. hopefully, that works I will use some padding too.

I tried with a belt on the door earlier doing partial standing on my tippy toes and almost blacked out in 5 seconds
