I found the sweet spot one time and I regret not following through. Getting so frustrated i should be gone already

I do it with 3 socks I tied together and a metal bar. Best I was able to do was get to the point where my hearing was pulsating and my face turned beet red. It's hard to keep the ligature above the Adam's apple, but when you do you can put a lot of pressure on your corotids.

Like OP, i found the sweet spot ONE time... the very first time i tried it. and since i was practicing i didn't follow through.

feel like such an idiot after another 30 minutes of trying in vain.

Make sure you pull the loop tight against your neck before you begin twisting for maximum pressure. This helped me a lot.

Thanks. This sounds helpful. Are you able to get it consistently?

I've even sharpied the location of my carotid and am doing this in front of the mirror, but results are nowhere close to what I first got. Gah should not have wasted that practice run.

I've done so much researching and reading on partial suspension hanging lately and have realized that a lot of people have difficulty with passing out and becoming unconscious. I think I just found a way to easily be able to pass out in order to finally finish the deed and just wanted to share it with others who are tired and frustrated with partial suspension hanging because of this.

I'm using a small belt as my noose. The noose is made with a slip knot and the other end is too. I'm using my closet and the metal bar that I'm using to hang from is about the same height as me (5'10). Standing up, I put the noose on, facing the direction of the noose and not away from it (facing the wall). The noose was high on my neck with the knot positioned in the back of my neck (make sure you tighten it, so that it won't budge when you drop.) To test it, I kneeled down like I was going to pray on my knees and at first I felt the usual "pounding head, ringing ears" thing that happens when you compress the jugular veins. NOTE : I had both of my hands on the metal bar above me and was kneeling down. Then I put maximum pressure on my neck by kneeling down even more and harder-- and suddenly was hit by a wave of pure confusion, followed by the feeling of fading away quickly. I stood up and the feeling went away. I tried it again and the same thing happened. And I padded my neck with a T-shirt.

So, it may not be that we're not properly locating the carotid arteries. It may just be that not enough pressure is being applied to it in order for us to go unconscious when trying to hang ourselves. If this doesn't work for you (which I hope it does), my advice is to experiment and find out what works best for you since every human body is different. Try hanging yourself with various knot positions, various ligatures, various anchors. If using the metal bar in the closet doesn't work, try using a doorknob or bedpost. Attempt, fail, and adjust and you will eventually find out how to quickly become unconscious--- and it's pretty cool how fast it happens. Good luck and I hope I helped someone

I'm able to get to the pulsing hearing and red face every time, yes, and sometimes a bit dizzy. I've twisted the socks until I can't turn them anymore and it still wasn't enough to pass out. This is a method for desperate people in hospitals and such. If you have a thin neck it's more likely to work. Also a bigger twisting object will allow you to apply more pressure, like the guy in the pic used.

After a night of experimenting, i'm starting to think you are correct.

Following the advice above, i start appying pressure to the carotids before i twist the tourniquet. if i squeeze manualy with my hands, i can apply enough pressure in the right places to slowly start to fade (before my hands weaken and loosen). Unfortunately, cranking the tourniquet as tight as possible I cannot get this to happen consistently. I am also cranking it as QUICKLY as I can.

Love to hear some more accounts from folks using this.

Going to go try to CTB in a bit but worried i will fail as i have been the past few times. Practice breeds success, so i am not discouraged from trying. i would just like to end the pain and suffering ASAP, and also not have to follow up with my life responsibilities that are currently awaiting me :)
