Help "Practicing" night-night — compressing wrong artery?

[yellowsouled]

Tried "practicing" night-night with cornhole beanbag things and a belt. I have ligatures, but wanted to see where I could get with a belt first.

Thought I had the bags in the right place, but never felt like I was going to lose consciousness. At most felt my pulse, like, through my skin? It was odd but not uncomfortable or unpleasant. But even after waiting for a couple minutes and adjusting the bags and belt I never felt light headed or like I was about to pass out.

Did I compress the jugular VS corotid? I assume it was Something because I was still able to breathe throughout this, so it wasn't the windpipe. I'm thinking I need practice, a different method, or something beside the recommended cornhole bags from the megathread.

Buuump. Still dunno what I did. You'd think the one with some medical experience would be better at offing themself, but I guess being tipsy is no help.

Yes you pressed the jugular.
It's difficult to press the correct artery as it requires more compression than the jugular. I literally get it right like 1/50 times lying down but can do it standing up or hanging. Sadly the night night method can't be done hanging

The cornhole bags are way too big and firm to apply the narrow pressure needed
