I drew a picture of how i would do it. Also attached a pic of my rope
I would tie one end of the rope to the other side of the doorknob, close the door, tie a noose, place a stool and get on top of it, get in the noose.
I want to know if it has a chance in succession because i can't fail. I can't risk it and try without knowing if it will work :'(. So please, if you don't mind, just comment if it's even possible or not!

The idea itself doesn't seen too bad as long as the part tied to the doorknob is secure, but that rope looks really thin. What kind is it and where'd you get it if you don't mind me asking. I figure a slightly thicker rope would be better for both putting you out and being secure without risk of breakage

wouldn't the knob just break? Can doorknobs even hold someone's full weight? And wouldn't the rope stop you from being able to close the door?

The rope is really old so i don't know anything about it, sorry. What if i fold this rope in half and like twist/braid it so it could be thicker? Also thank you for replying!:)

It's so embarrassing that i didn't even think about it :(. I read on here about somebody doing it this way and thought it's possible. Thank you for your perspective!

Np, and its ok if you don't know. If you trust your rope tying skills maybe but honestly if I were you id just get a new thicker rope made by professionals instead of risking with diy, especially since you said the rope is really old.

I would hate for you to risk ending up with brain damage if this fails, not to scare you or anything but hanging (even partial) is a risky method that can mess you up for life if the slightest thing is done wrong. I don't blame you for thinking about the doorknob idea if someone else on here has done it and they hypothetically succeeded.

question, if if you do kind of mess it up, if no one comes and saves you, would ot still work? Just more painful?

that's how I attempted, and it failed, and I have severe chronic health issues now. It was also extremely traumatic to go through. I can't convince you to die or not to but theres a lot of reasons to not. But I know it sucks either way. Just my two cents.

What can happen if failing this

Why not semi-suspension? Compressing the carotid artery doesn't require your full body weight.
Besides, full suspension cuts off your breathing and hurts a lot more.

Semi suspension doesn't work for everyone, it's surprising how hard it is to cut the carotid artery. I've tried for days, different positions, knots etc. no luck, not once did I get close to the feeling of passing out.

How tall and how much do you weigh? I use a sitting/suspended position where my buttocks are still touching the ground. I can breathe normally and feel no pain. After just 3 seconds, my vision went black. I'm wondering whether some people who try partial suspension fail, feel a lot of pain, and can't breathe because they're applying too much force instead of too little. In theory, only about 5 kg of pressure is needed to compress the carotid artery. Some people can even succeed while lying down or in a prone position.
I forgot to mention, I'm 176 cm tall and weigh 51 kg. I'm the particularly skinny type.
Did you experience your vision going black? Normally, the first reaction when the carotid artery is blocked is vision turning black / blacking out.
I can take a photo of my setup for you later.

Remember the setup is not enough, to succeed, the hardest step is when you are on the stool, and you will need some courage and strong willpower to actually do it,

Could you breathe at that time? If not, the pressure might have been too hard.
Also, if you press on the carotid artery, you won't feel faint right away. Usually, your vision starts to change first.

Have you ever tried standing and tightening a rope around your neck? I almost passed out within 7 seconds. I'd guess the force was under 10 kilograms. If pulling with the hands is possible, then partial suspension would definitely be possible too.

You're welcome. This is just for reference — the decision is ultimately yours.
