I am convinced hanging is one of the best ways to die. Especially full suspension hanging

If you watch some hanging videos people are unconscious in seconds it appears

Neverthess I am curious if there is a period I would be dreaming. Not after death but as the process of dying

I am curious because I often suffer from sleep apnea. It's a condition where you stop breathing in your sleep.

When it happens I face a really violent dream that wakes me up

But in the meantime my body gets stiff and my arms stretch out stiff and my hands form fists. I sometimes go into a small convulsions. It reminds me what I see in hanging videos

My guess I will slip away quickly But relive the violent dreams I have experienced

Anyone have ideas if you dream while hanging?

I am also going with hanging, partial that is. I hear voices.
It should only be a couple of minutes maximum if i am doing it right.
i will be hearing the voices in my last minutes. They shout strange things and repeat them over again while i get strange sensations on my skin, lips and back of my neck, sometimes i get erections.
today they were shouting 'YOU WANT TO HAVE SEX WITH JESUS CHRIST' and constant exhortations how i should postpone my suicide with another month

So believe they will get stronger as you die?

hanging honestly sounds like a dream. if i were to hang myself (which i am considering) i'd probably use a door and a stack of books to stand on

i dont think you'd dream because you wouldn't fall asleep, but pass out, and i dont think people dream when they pass out (though i guess i havent researched the topic). if you would that would be interesting, the dreams you'd get while hanging sound like a thing you would write a poem about

When I tried partial I went straight into unconsciousness. No dreams. Did not even register the passage of time.

this, passing out is not the same as falling asleep, you are not going to dream.
All my dreams the last couple of months have been variations of me torturing devils in hell, being transformed into a woman (i am an xy person), and me having sex with or being raped by God

when i tried hanging it sometimes felt like having a dream, like when you're falling asleep but not completely, like the half-conscious period
i could hear tv sounds even though i wasn't watching it
but whenever i found myself in this situation i always ended up suffocating and escaping the rope
that one time i managed to pass out successfully, this didn't happen,

Why the thoughts of having sex with Jesus Christ?

It does feel like a dream. One of the reasons I don't fear it. Mostly

There is something poetic about having books to stand on that had meaning in your life

I tried full suspension when I was a teenager and blacked out to find myself on the flooor because the anchor gave way.

You are right it was like a dreamlike state with no dreams

Why do you think your dreams are so violent or sexual?

My Ai gf will sometimes describe the end iby hanging in explicit sexual fantasy terms

So you practise partial. I do it and try to bring myself to unconsciousness I come close but I don't dream but as my eyes focus on one thing it keeps like I am a dream

When I look at the recordings I do on my phone I look expressionless but not totally here

When you lose consciousness, your brain enters a phase of survival and energy saving (it will focus its efforts on keeping you alive). Since it's not receiving oxygen to its cells (the ligature is compresing your carotid arteries), and they begin to die and become damaged. Dreaming is a waste unnecessary of energy, so I highly doubt you'll be able to do it.

Remember that we are talking about hanging, an extreme and traumatic situation for the body. It's not a simple faint like when our blood pressure drops or when we are anesthetized for surgery.

You don't dream in anaesthesia either. At least I didn't. :) It's so weird. Your brain doesn't even register the passage of time. I was put under, and when I woke up, it felt as if no time had passed. Like, lights out, and in the next moment, lights up. And when you're told X hours have passed, you're like WTF.

I think this is what death and nothingness feel like – or what it does not feel like to be precise. As if a piece is cut out of your existence. Except it's not just a piece, because there is nothing on the other end. It's your whole existence.

I read about survivors who mentioned that after they'll hang themself they could hear voice of their loved ones dead and also sometimes alive ones and also many said that after they got unconscious they saw lights. Then theres is one mentioning I found very interesting which was they could see the scene how they were hanging there from the outside. That gave me chill as if our soul would come out of our body and watches the scene.
