Anyone have any experiences of losing large amounts of blood rapidly? I did unexpectedly, possibly around three pints. Felt extreme dizziness and started losing my vision at the sides. The strangest part was that although I could feel my limbs they had absolutely no strength, the sensation of my legs just collapsing beneath me as though made of jelly and arms unable to grasp anything. The thing was at no point was any of it painful, it was just hugely alarming at the time as I wasn't expecting it and the rapid onset of extreme loss of control over my body threw me.

Not sure I'd have the skills or the nerve to intentionally cause that to myself but it genuinely wasn't a painful sensation, so that gives me comfort thinking about this method. Sure I read once that perhaps as you near death this way it can feel like drowning? No idea though!

Someone posted a detailed post about it just yesterday or the day before. Try "exsanguination" in the search gizmo.

I self harm via blood letting. It's a really discrete way of hurting yourself - intensely private and barely detectable. I cannulate myself and then let the blood flow. I have lost a over a litre in one session, but I often do less. So I am very frequently in the early stages of hypovolaemic shock. It almost feels like a high at the time, but for the next few days I am always unsteady on my feet and dizzy with a headache. It feels so shit afterwards, but the relief at the time makes me go back again and again

How do I do that efficiently? Would it be easyish to pass out and die this way? In a field with a tent and some booze? On the beach? In the sea? All appeals...

I've had a bad head injury once, and I remember the same symptoms - dizziness, loss of limb strength and control, temporary decrease/loss of vision (in particular, I remember the world going black and white). Ditto for a subsequent leg injury later.

@Rocksandsand I'll have to look into self-harm via bloodletting... That seems like a usable control mechanism. Less pain, more being asleep seems like the best way for me to spend my time, considering that I'm never going to be able to plan out CTBing (last time I did that, I wussed out).

Not really. It's not fast or an efficient way to induce blood loss significant enough to kill you quickly

It's not very nice because by removing the blood from your body, your heart may stop before your brain shuts down and you'll feel that. I would suggest SN for a cheap and reasonably peaceful method. Or CO poisoning if you have the means. The way they act is similar.
