For those who previously attempted to hang themselves , how does it feel ? How much time it takes until you're unconscious ? How to prevent failing ?

I haven't hung myself but the articles usually say 10, 15 Seconds to unconsciousness

It may hurt for a tad bit with partial, and full suspension

I've tried hanging but it wasn't an actual attempt, I did it with the intent to see what it would be like, not with the intent to actually end my life

I've tried partial suspension hanging (I think that's the right term) and I've done it several times and during those times my vision went dark, my arms and legs felt a bit numb, and overall I felt like I was falling asleep

I always stopped myself very soon and before I lost consciousness though

I have hung myself multiple times and it does weird things to your body.
Almost all times my head got really hot and the pressure to your head rises and a wave of calmness and numbness rushes over my body.
Other less common sensations I've had included:
Feeling the gums in my mouth going numb,
Seeing stars,
Going dizzy,
Ability to hear fading,
Ability to see fading,
Heart hurting a little (or the muscles around it),
Limbs going numb.

It usually takes about 5 to 14 seconds for me. The more pressure there is on your arteries, the faster you lose consciousness. With complete cutting of the blood flow, you will lose consciousness immediately.

So far I've only measured my setup for full suspension and I gonna hang only once. But as I know it's 10-20 seconds to knockout and 10-15 min to death.

Ive tried 4months ago, with cable to a gas pipe, couldnt lose consciousness. Throat was red and it was hard to swallow. I needed hide my neck at work for one week.

Before that ive also tried to strangle myself, bled my eyes. I was close to pass out, im angry at myself for not being able to stand few seconds more.

Fucking SI.

My mouth felt numb and my arms felt weak, I started to panic and tried to break it off of my neck. It was calm at first though until I heard my friend knock on the bathroom door.
Everything was just fading and I was trying to fight it.
I wish I wouldn't of waited so long to do it then I would be gone

I tried it yesterday. Horrible experience. I was fully conscious and struggling for air, so I tried to free myself but my arms and legs were very uncoordinated and weak, so it was very difficult. I was very panicky and making weird noises. I never lost consciousness, that's the worst part while my body didn't work anymore. It wasn't calm at all. Eventually I was able to free myself, and I strained my pec by doing so, but I was very close not to be able to. A couple of seconds more and I wouldn't have been able to free myself, and I would have died while being very aware of my surroundings and struggling to break free. After that, I was kinda confused and sleepy from the oxygen deprivation. I'll probably try it again in the future, hoping that this time I'll be unconcious quickly and not having to endure all of that.

I havent attempted this method yet, but i imagine this is how it'll go down if i try. I cant see my body peacefully falling asleep, i cant even manage that in bed

Haven't tried to hang yet but have used a belt tight around my neck, also tried plastic bag over my head. Some feelings of euphoria in both but the belt felt more like my head getting tight and pounding. Like others I have read that 10 seconds or so you should loose conciousness and death in as much as 20 mins till your heart stops beating. i want to go out with short drop method cause once I step off of my support I don't want anything under me to stop me. I have noticed on videos of men hainging in the middle east that once they are suspended there is not much kicking or struggle. Most just hang sitll with some movement in the legs raising them to a sitting position but nothing violent

Didn't come close to success, but never felt more than a pinch either.

I have been putting it off but I have to do it by Tuesday. I've put the rope around my neck and felt light headed. I'm going full suspension from a tree. I am so afraid of failure, that's the main reason I've put it off. I've not really thought about the pain. I tried 3 times to jump off a bridge into water and couldn't. Full suspension seems like the only option for me. Snuggle hitch, 12mm rope under my jaw, slip knot and hopefully game over!
Partial, I don't think it's even remotely possible to save yourself with full.
I really hope that it isn't! One shot will full or my life is even worse.

Hi. I'll assume this is a genuine question so I'll be completely real with you!
I don't think anyone here can HONESTLY answer your question because they've all failed a hanging attempt if they're reading/replying to this...
I suppose to not fail would be:
1- Use a strong hanging material (like a thick rope/scarf)
2- Do it somewhere private where there are no other people

I'd assume there's a sense of panic and a lot of discomfort/pressure/pain

I have been hanged full suspension and non lethally by a partner a number of times. He lets me down as soon as my pupils are locked what is a sign of unconsciousness. It is not a bad feeling and it makes kind of addicted. Otherwise I would have not done it again and again. After 5 to 15 seconds of hanging my vision becomes kind of coarse and than I come back from a completely different situation. It take some time to realise that I was hanged and had passed out. Unconsciousness comes very quick and without warning, you should never play alone unless you really want to die. By the way the more often I was hanged non lethally the more I want not to wake up again. My next hanging will probably be lethal.

I'm planning to do partial in about 2 weeks (I'm away from home now). But I can't find my carotid arteries and am afraid of failure.
