Full suspension, anyone else?

[fox_wannabe]

It would be my method If I ever were to do the thingy

 

[Eternity]

I prefer full suspension, unfortunately I don't have anchor points in my home for full suspension. I'll go with partial

Full suspension is my method too. I'll be covering my body with a beautiful pink satin drap to cope with the unaesthetic side of the method.

I'm using this method too, that's a good idea but won't satin slip off when your body convulses? I'll probably use a thin pashmina to cover my face, are you gonna ctb at home?

I'll make a tiny hole in the drap and place it between the two knots (between the anchor knot and the neck knot), it won't be able to slip. Yes, I'll do it in my bedroom.

The same with me, I gonna do it at home as well. As I live alone, it's no problem.

What's your anchor point, if you don't mind me asking?

I'll order one of these and pretend I will use them for decorative purpose. My house is made of concrete so it should be able to handle my weight just fine (if I install the hook correctly).

Also these hooks are litterally advertised as "hangman products" lol..

I think they're onto you lol, I have to use the stairs railing (i was originally going to use my bedroom door), but it's hard to find some time alone.

I thought about the stairs but the chances of being found are too high for me. I don't live alone unfortunately

There is a rafter in my room, easy to attach the rope. And I live alone

Yes. When I'm ready, I'll most probably do full suspension.

Regarding your first question, I don't think it is agonising if done right. If you search for it, there are info about how to do it, it's not that difficult.

I have tried it a couple of times where I tried to push a belt against my neck with my arms pointing backwards behind my head, and pulling the belt that way. No knot or anything, so if I lose consciousness, my arms drop, and nothing happens.

For some people it's easier to pass out, for some it's more difficult. I couldn't do it. I guess it depends on your anatomy, how your neck is built, how muscular you are, how big your Adam's apple is, how deep your arteries are etc.

Then I tried to put some padding on the two sides of my Adam's apple, around the area where the arteries should be. Like a pair of socks folded into a ball, and put one on each side, put the belt over that, and pull. Big success. Took about 10 seconds until I blacked out. I imagine if I did full suspension this way, it'd take about 10-15 seconds max, and I'm gone. Like ease into it, then after 5-10 seconds kick the chair under me, and that's it. I wouldn't feel anything. So that's my discovery.

Wish there was an easy way to do full or partial that way without using a belt.

I am thinking of full suspension also but i would prefer it indoors to feel more safe ,but because i am 1.90 height and 140 kilos cant find an anchor point indoors .

That is the exact problem most people have with full suspension. Older houses often have beams in the basement that will work, but it is obvious that for many years now builders have avoided leaving spots for this, so it's tough to do. If you have a house to yourself you could probbaly figure out something you could set up somehow, but not that many people who want to ctb have a house to themselves.
