I am convinced that hanging is the simplest method. People have been hanging themselves successfully for thousands of years without any planning or forethought. My own wife of 24 years did it with an extension cord wrapped around a cabinet handle and she didn't know the slightest thing about hanging or carotid arteries.
And while I only discovered her and did not witness it, I'm 99% sure that it was swift and peaceful - it did not appear that she struggled, went in to convulsions, etc., by evidence of her hand was holding the other end of the cord that was plugged in about 5ft away. I know that cord and plug and by no means does it stick or is it hard to pull out. If it was her windpipe, it definitely got the arteries first. Further, she was right next to a bedroom end table that had a lamp on it - literally less than 3" away from her. If she even moved her arms/elbows at all, she would've knocked all of that over. Also, people use bedsheets for partial hangings (just leaning your bodyweight forward) all the time in prisons. They don't even think about it - they just do it. I know - I was incarcerated in the CDC (California Dept. of Corrections) for 3 years.
I that most of us here have the personality type that spends a little too much time in our heads - myself included. We tend to overanalyze, which becomes paralysis by analysis.
We overthink everything - what if this happens, what if it doesn't work, what would it feel like to struggle, what's the best way to tie this, can I anchor to that, will this antiemetic work, etc.
What are your guy's thoughts on this idea...
I'm using an exercise band as an ode to Chris Cornell from Soundgarden. I have a thick wood closet pole in my closet that is secured by brackets drilled in to studs, but really, you could try and use a doorknob on other side of door and pull rope/cord/band over. I be twisting the band as tight as possible and looping it over my neck.
Given I lost the use of my legs about a year ago (I can stand, but not balance at all) - I will stand, put the twisted "heavy duty" band around my neck, kick my wheelchair away, then proceed to hyperventilate - which I have tested - I pass out fairly easily, simply by hyperventilating then blowing on my thumb. At that I pass out, my body drops, and from my own belief, you then simply realize you are staring at the flesh suit you used for this particular life.
I do not believe there is any point of "death" - it's just a shift in perspective.
You physical body, and the cells that comprise it, die all the time. Most of the "physical body" you had 10 years ago is already dead, yet you didn't even notice. I think that "death" is the same way - it's just a blink and your perspective changes, ie., you are still you, just like how most of your cells are dying all the time, and you are still you.
