Help Does ligature strangulation work?

[losing_it]

I've been experimenting and after tying the knot I feel dizzy but I haven't gone further, I don't know if It'll be enough. I have a thin neck so I can easily hit the carotid arteries, seems too easy but from what I've seen it's a very niche method, and many people here say it doesn't work

Yeah it works. I think zipties are the best way.

Maybe, but there are so many people in this forum and so many methods... how many have actually passed away? and how can we know that they did actually do it? Just because someone stops posting in this forum doesn't mean they succeeded.

Partial hangings are used way more often than full suspension. More accessible, and less painful is my guess. I myself would never use hanging as so much can go wrong, and the damage that you would then have to live with can be substantial.

Partial hanging seems way easier, I don't see why would someone choose full suspension, not only seems painful but also hard af, like you have to find a high anchor point, then a chair, etc.

Google or whatever 'ligature strangulation' there's plenty of pics of people succeeding. I wasn't talking about anyone here. Why do you care about how many people here have succeeded? Millions of people throughout history have done it without a site like this. This place has only existed for eight years or so.

Partial is definitely easier to practice, and the people on here that have an easy time with partial often report passing out by accident on one of their first attempts. But there are also a lot of people (myself included) that just can't manage to block the carotids after many attempts. It seems like most people who choose full try partial for a while but either can't pass out or have multiple failed attempts where they woke up after passing out.
