• Hey Guest,

    An update on the OFCOM situation: As you know, censorship around the world has been ramping up at an alarming pace. OFCOM, the UK’s communications regulator, has singled out our community, demanding compliance with their Online Safety Act despite our minimal UK presence. This is a blatant overreach, and they have been sending letters pressuring us to comply with their censorship agenda.

    Our platform is already blocked by many UK ISPs, yet they continue their attempts to stifle free speech. Standing up to this kind of regulatory overreach requires lots of resources to maintain our infrastructure and fight back against these unjust demands. If you value our community and want to support us during this time, we would greatly appreciate any and all donations.

i've been told this will fail so this isn't my final method but i wanted to get an idea of where to find the exact area of compression on my neck, rehearse it to see how it feels etc.
in my closet overhead is a very thin metal bar, it seems sturdy but looks like it can easily snap. i don't have a rope so i used a pretty thick belt to practice on. i wrapped it around the metal and put my head through it, but due to my short stature (below 5'3) i was kind of at the perfect height to just. stand there awkwardly, so i couldn't kneel down or anything
i also tested my doorknob and got a better feeling but i am not risking it because it could be bad if it somehow slips or falls off my doorknob whilst im unconscious

tldr do i have to be kneeling/sitting in order for partial to work? is standing like a no-go

Have you looked at the hanging megathread? I believe it talks about partial as well as full suspension.

You are aiming for your carotid arteries on either side of your neck. The night-night method thread discusses this

Also, a lot of people struggle with partial, but it is not impossible. I would advise against standing as your body may find a way to support itself while unconscious and end up saving you. Sitting/kneeling leads to a much higher chance of success. Could you get ahold of a longer rope that would allow you to be closer to the floor?

yeah i figured standing would attribute to more control = escaping the situation easier. i read through the threads already but i feel like it's important for me to ask in specifics because i'd be more afraid of messing it up than anything. perhaps investing in a proper, longer rope really is the solution

I have a mooring rope that I think someone linked to in one of the hanging threads. I can tie it to a ceiling rafter and still kneel all the way on the floor. It's something like, 15ft/4.5m long which actually gives me lots of extra.
