Just wondered how many of us have attempted ctb and failed or have never attempted.

Only 2 imprisonments for over 20 attempts - wow. What were your methods? What country are you in?i've attempted 20+ times and have been hospitalised twice. living the bpd chronic suicidality dream life (sarcasm)
Where did you stab yourself? What was it like? Any long term effects?No recent attempts, though I've practiced with hanging a few times. I acted impulsively and stabbed myself a long time ago.
What did you overdose on?It caused a shitty hypoxic brain injury. I overdosed and had a heart attack, was taken out of ICU too early and had a second heart attack which caused 42 minutes of my heart not beating. Lord praise the crap NHS
Same. Failing this time is not an option for me. I WILL succeed.Tried and failed. It's awful having to go on like nothing happened after a failure. My one goal now is to do it one more time and get it right.
Abdomen. Blood didn't immediately come spraying out like you might see in movies, only realized that I actually penetrated the skin when I looked again and saw blood streaming out. No long term damage and surgeons deemed it a superficial wound, though I do have a small scar there.Where did you stab yourself? What was it like? Any long term effects?
Right or left side, closer to the ribcage or the groin? What did you use?Abdomen.

Left side, lower part of ribcage. I grabbed a random kitchen knife (not a big one).Right or left side, closer to the ribcage or the groin? What did you use?
Apologies for the barrage. I only ask because I have considered this (separate to suicide - as a means of preventing myself from eating) when feeling out of control from bulimia made me feel suicidal) - and there is scant information on this topic, much less first hand accounts.
