Help Swallowing during hanging

[cookiencream]

Today, I think I fully hung myself. My feet were barely touching the floor, I could only manage to get my toes to graze the ground. The rope was in place and tied and everything. The chair was in reach ofc but I stayed there for a while. I didn't feel lightheaded but my vision got darker. I barely felt anything as well, no fear no nothing. Only thing weird is that any time I put weight down on the rope (I stepped off) I would reflexively swallow. Is there a way to stop this?

The ligature (under the jaw) + the weight of the body draws the base of the tongue upwards.

"In hanging, where the ligature passes above the larynx, the hyoid bone is pushed obliquely, together with the base of the tongue, resting against the posterior wall of the pharynx."

It is not something that can be avoided, the correct position of the ligature is that place..

I had been wondering about the reflexive swallowing too. I didn't know it couldn't be avoided. At least that means I've been putting the rope in the right spot.
