In my partial hanging test I felt a very strong head exploding feeling which I've also heard others on this site talk about. Is this normal and indicative of it working or is this due to a mistake I might be making?

if you are getting the head exploding feeling then that means you need stronger compression. basically the neck has input and output veins for the brain, you want to compress the input veins (carotid arteries) so that the brain is starved of blood but the output veins (jugular vein) is a bit on top of the input veins so you need stronger force to reach the slightly deeper input veins (that does mean both will be compressed, but thats okay)

Use a different method; one that won't make you feel like your head'll pop like a balloon.

Oh I see that actually makes sense. I probably didn't put enough weight on it because it was a test and I didn't want to accidentally fall unconscious and so I think I could easily fix that. Thank you very much for the advice it is appreciated :)

Not many other methods are accessible to me right now as I'm in hospital with no chance of getting out any time soon.
