Hey everyone,

Been talking to a lot of people in the chat and trying to explain this method, and one user wanted me to make a post about it, so here goes everything.

We're going after a classic idea of using a blood choke, except, it will be against ourselves. In the privacy of our own homes. In a fully relaxed state.

This method is fully capable and will kill you very fast. I know this because it's what we were taught in the Marine Corps.

First, you're going to want some Gorilla tape OR a tree ratchet.

Second, get two Sackhole/Cornhole bags.

Now, depending on what you're using, you'll want to lie on the ground and put the bags on these two exact areas on your neck (In blue).

The reason we're lying on the ground is that we want to be able not to have to fuss over putting the bags on us and making sure they don't fall out of place before we use the ratchet or the tape. You're putting the bags on these two areas to go after the internal carotid arteries.

Start cinching the ratchet closed or wrap the tape around your neck once. Is everything feeling good? I'm glad. If not, then uncinch it a little and place the bags. You want to make sure that you're not compressing the windpipe as that could cause you to freak out a little.

We want this to be painless and fast.

After you're comfortable, sit down if you want to or stand up. Do whatever you want honestly. Start wrapping the tape around your neck more and a little tighter or start closing the ratchet more.

In about 5-20 seconds you will pass out. After that, it's pretty much game over unless you somehow hit the ratchet release. That's why I said we could also use tape as well. With the gorilla tape, it will make sure that you don't inadvertently try to tear the tap off... because it will be strong as hell around your neck.

After you pass out, it will only take a few minutes, and you will be brain dead from the complete lack of blood flow to your brain.

I think I've explained this pretty well and I hope you guys understand the method. If not, please don't hesitate and I'm sure that I can help you out or someone else in the community can help you out.
anybody know if the devs patched this yet?

I am going to attempt ctb by this method again. This time, I took the caps that come from Tylenol bottles and taped it on the bottom of the pill bottle caps. It makes them longer and I think the problem was they weren't pressing the carotid artery hard enough. It's either gonna happen. Tonight or tomorrow. Otherwise, I'll post an update that I failed again.

Failed attempt again but I think I'm getting close. I went back to just the pill bottle caps but taped 7 stacked dimes to the center which seems to hit my carotid artery easier. Not sure when I'll attempt again but I'll try to post here first.

Thanks for the useful information! I've read of people using medication bottles, corn bags etc, I wonder if some metal square pipes cut to exact measurement would work as an alternative?

Considering the purpose I'm not overly concerned by bruises.

Greetings. I have been eyeing this threat since before joining. I managed to locate my "sweet spot" fairly early and can induce my self into a dizzy state with blurred vision and tingles around the hands and legs 95% of the time. I don't want to say I have gotten addicted to it does feel kind of fun to induce my self into this state.
What I wanted to ask is if the body or at least the neck area could induce a tolerance to it. I do not plant on CTB yet but its good thing to train my self so I can do it perfectly.
So my questions are:
1)Can the body and or neck area built tolerance to the "finger pushing"?
2) Could it be possible to do this a lot on a daily basis that your carotid arteries become swollen for a while thus making have to stop to let them heal?
thank you for your time.

It looks like my worry was not wrong. Today I had problems with my sweet spot it worked once then I tried it again over and over after 5 minutes no success, I waited about 2 hours and I managed to hit the "sweet spot again" but only once.
I come to the conclusion that it is not wise to go overboard with it. If you can find your sweet spot reliably do not touch it at all as it will be harder and harder to make your self go into the dizzy state instead do it once just to see if you remember and then leave it for a week or 2. I'm planning to cut down doing it daily to once a week to let it heal from the constant pressure I have been applying to if for the past week.

Ok so I have been practicing this, but I can't manage to pass out, I only got a mild headache, I think I'm placing the bags in the wrong place.

I tried to locate my "sweet spot" with pressing fingers and also with a belt. The belt worked the first few times, I stopped when my vision started getting blurry.

But now, no matter how much I try and where I press and tug - nothing. Any tips?

This is the method I would like to use.
I would be lying if I said it didn't affect me to see all the people who have problems applying this method.
But I still think that this method can definitely work for anyone if we do it right, which might be a patient process from case to case.

I'm actually still at stage 1.
Pinching off the carotid artery by hand:
I have no problem at all finding my sweet spot, which is the spot that pulsates the most. And I also quickly achieve changes in sensation. Just 4 seconds are enough to feel the changes in sensation very intense.
After that, SI kicks in and it's incredibly strong. Because what I feel scares me and kind of differs each time.
What scares me the most are the symptoms of paralysis or I don't know how else to describe it. It feels as if my face is paralysed. In addition, there are strong convulsions in my arms and hands and an increasingly louder tinnitus, with an increasingly stronger echo. But it feels different every time, just that I can't describe the differences.
I would like to try to keep pressing and see if and when unconsciousness follows, but I can't manage it. SI is too strong. Or, actually, it's not SI but the fear that I don't know what will happen next. Could I possibly have a stroke? If the stroke happens when I actually execute my attempt, it's unpleasant, but I will die, right? If I have a stroke while playing around and testing, I probably won't die, but I might linger in agony and not be able to do the actual attempt.
I'm so scared. Everything is so intense for me … pain, sensations, reflexes.

I know that probably nobody here can help me, but I wanted to write it anyway.
Do you think I risk a stroke or other permanent damage just by testing with my hand if I just keep pressing my arteries? I would love to make it to the point of unconsciousness, just to know what it will take to get there. But I can't even manage longer than 5 seconds.

I am aware of the problem regarding the distinction between the jugular vein and the carotid artery.
It doesn't matter how and where I press, it always quickly leads to these frightening sensations.
And ultimately, both blood vessels will be affected in the actual attempt as well, as the pressure we exert is spread over an area and not just on the carotid artery, which is also not possible as the two blood vessels run directly next to each other.

I had this issue with my last method. I don't like feeling dizzy so having a method that made me dizzy was difficult. The only reason I got through it was practice. I just kept experiencing that dizzy feeling until it wasn't scary anymore. I'm hoping to do night-night myself and, whenever I have a free minute with no one around, I press on my neck to experience the dizziness. I am getting used to it. I'm also telling myself that this sensation is the precursor to relief. Yes it's scary but what comes after is so much better that it's worth enduring.

I hope you can get something to work and find peace!

I have exactly the same problem. I can find the arteries and have a go at cutting them off with my hands. At first it feels pleasant, but then just before I pass out panic kicks in, my hands and legs start shaking uncontrollably so I stop. Never managed to go all the way to passing out. I just need to work up how to get the guts to continue. Does it get easier over time? I'm worried I'll get PTSD from all these 'attempts'

I don't think I'm going to force unconsciousness. The fear of having a stroke or other permanent damage is too much.
So far, nobody here has said that there is no risk of having a stroke while playing with hand.
I can't directly identify dizziness in my feelings or the feeling that I'm about to lose consciousness, but only other things, first and foremost paralysis in my face and a rapidly stronger ringing tinnitus. But I never press for more than 5 seconds.
I think I'll just carry on with the preparations and build my equipment now and try it out. I think as long as I get these feelings with the equipment as well, it will work. Not as peaceful as I would like, but at least it should work reasonably quickly.

Maybe you are pressing on a nerve and that's causing the paralysis in your face?

Mhmmm, I don't think so. I don't press that hard and only where it pulsates.
I suspect that what I perceive as symptoms of paralysis is what others describe as pressure in the head, triggered by pressing on the jugular vein. But I'm not sure and so I stop pressing. However, due to the strong convulsions in my arm and hand, it wouldn't be possible to press for much longer than 5 seconds anyway, I guess.

Technically yes, but it's a result of cutting off blood flow to the brain. A lot of times people start convulsing as the brain starts dying because it starts wildly firing everything trying to get you to survive.

So long as you're healthy, I don't think this could lead to an increased risk of seizure (outside of active hypoxia) but I couldn't find any information saying either way.

Aw shit, I'm far from healthy and seizures are the reason lol.
Thank you so much for looking into it for me! I can't find any info on the fourm

Usually the convulsing starts right before or right after the person is unconscious, so if you're worried about having a seizure, it will most likely come at the point where you're already well on your way to ctb.

Thanks for all the documentation you are doing.

How did you realise that your attempts were failing?
Have you had sensations?
If so, for how long and did they simply disappear then?

I cant do it no matter what i try. Its not my SI. I kept choking myself far past the point of blue. I tried the med caps, the corn hole bags and T shirts/pillow cases. I have my arteries down to a T at this point. I put an X over them. I wish i had came up with a plan b, because i ruined my life right before this

A few stupid questions:
What do you mean by "point of blue", "T", "X" ?
You tried with ratchet straps?
How was your body and head positioned when you increased the compression?
How long did you hold the maximum pressure?
What changes in sensation did you experience?
Any convulsions?
Why did you stop?

Let me get the straight: you find your carotids, which is what medics call "pulse", get roughly sock-sized bags, soft, get a ratched crank, get it around your neck, put the socks on the carotids, and then start yanking?

I once read about a method using a Y-stick that people simply lay on?Is that something similar?

Can you also do the method by simply lying on the edge of the bed etc.?
