Venting The irony frustrates me

[Céu Azul]

Kind of ridiculous but for starters I'm a very short woman, 5' and I lack strength and motor ability. Thus methods like half and night night never work for me. The most ironic part is that I have a very, very slim neck. I've been praised over it many times because it's long and 'dainty'. Must be like 13 inches in girth. And even then (!!!!!) I cannot compress my carotid arteries. At all. I have tried so many times over the years, and I never can. I always end up crushing my windpipe some way or another. It leaves me flabbergasted.
I'm not even gonna use such methods at this point but I just wanted to share because I find it darkly ironic and amusing nevertheless.

Yeah i was pretty beat up i couldn't do partial or tourniquet. I can find my pulse on either side of my neck, and practicing with thumbs gives me results like 1/12 times. I've had several attempts via partial and tourniquet and they all failed. Just cannot get it to work.

Don't worry tho, there are plenty other methods (SN is particularly popular here) - although admittedly they take more prep work.
