Tried the night night method but panicked

[Hallow]

I tried the night night method today.
Got myself drunk, went to bed and used 2 rolled up socks and a robe belt tied at the front.
I could breathe just fine.
After a few minutes of nothing happening I tightened the knot and immediately felt faint and my vision got blurry. Unfortunately I panicked and grabbed at the belt, I passed out and woke up after a few hours with the belt still around my neck.

If I can overcome the SI I think this method is quite peaceful, there is no suffocating, just going to sleep in my bed and never waking up again.

From all of my personal tries, i think if it works it should be peaceful. I remember years ago i was attacked and guy put choke out manuver on me. All i remember is one moment he has me in hold, then i wake up on the floor with my mate above me trying to wake me up. So i guess if I manage to replicate this block, it should be very quick lights out.

From what I read that method sounds unreliable and I read about a failed attempt with it. I would just fear something going wrong and ending up with damage if I tried to attempt it but I guess that if it actually works then it's always another option to ctb with. But it's like the SI exists just to prolong our suffering and keep us trapped here and it can certainly be very frustrating and awful how it's this difficult to die. But I just think that after all, it's difficult to actually know if people have succeeded with night night as it isn't like the non existent can come on here and announce it. Best of luck with your plans.

I tried doing this but only got exploding head.
I tried with a tourniquet and by tightening with my hands.

I tried with a tourniquet and by tightening with my hands.

I woke up with an headache but blamed it on the alcohol, but had no exploding head sensation during the attempt.

On the moment I just felt relaxed, felt the blood pulsing where the socks were compressing, and then just passed out while tugging at the belt and had very vivid dreams.

As @FuneralCry mentioned, I am a bit worried about ending up with brain damage, but at the same time my main concern about methods is that it needs to be peaceful. I spent my entire life suffering, I want my final moments to be without pain.

It's my dream method if I could get it to work. I tried variations of tourniquet/night night/ligature compression literally all night and just couldn't get it. That leaves hanging. But partial so far hasn't gone well. I have a decent set up now (though by this time, I was exhausted and sore so only tried a couple times) but I can't stop myself from stopping myself. Truly considering full at this point. I'm just concerned my rope won't be strong enough. It's rated for 195 pounds, I'm 140, but with the struggling and stuff... I need to get this done ASAP.

I want this method to work for me too. But last time I tried it, it didn't work. Like you said few minutes and nothing happened. I'll keep experimenting with items until I feel a combination working. Thanks for the reassurance that this works. Also it nice to see so many other people here that like the idea of this method.

I tried the NN method twice today. Once with the rachet strap and the other with zipties. Coundn't get the bean bags in place to feel anything other the the pain on the back of my neck from both the strap and zipties. The strap got twisted so I had to cut it off with sissors. The zipties were so tight, I had to get a small knife to cut them. I won't say I've given up yet on this method but it is proving to be more challenging than I expected.

Dying is actually a very difficult and scary thing to do most of the time. Sometimes you think you are ready but SI kicks in. Overcoming it takes a lot

Can someone confirm if they get same effects as i do( when pressimg with hands in i think right spot) : distorted echo-like sound in ears, vision going slowly dark, metalic taste in mouth, limbs getting pin&needles and going numb? I release involuntary as cannot control my hands then and sometimes get twitches for couple seconds after release.

You have a few more symptoms than me, but yeah. You probably got it.
Record yourself doing it, you can go until you collapse. You will wake up whit no brain damage, fighters do this a lot

Thats the thing. I cannot continue till collapse as i cannot keep my hands in place.

You might want to try to hyperventilate first, 10 seconds and you're out. Guaranteed

Might give it a go. 10 seconds hypervent or 10 hold? Cause i can hold my hands max 5 sec before they let go

People say to hyperventilate for 10 seconds, but you can go forever, just make sure you're dizzy. Also try to get into that position where you reach your toes, while you're hyperventilating. The hold is until you pass out. The sensation of going unconscious is weird and you might not believe that you went unconscious btw, so, record it

Ive been choke hold years before. I know how it feels. Thats why i know i have not reached the point, although symptoms add up. It is a weird feeling - when my mate was waking me up then, i though i was dreaming. Thats why i know it is peaceful.

Weird. Did you try again? For me it's easy, and your symptoms adds up

Didnt try with hyperventilating, as currently dont have possibility to. When it was done to me years ago, it was in assault, so didnt ask for more :) At least i know im on right track. Tried with bags and ratchet while ago, but cannot practice at the moment anymore, due to not being alone.

I see. I never bought the bags or the ratchet tbh...

 

[liz!!!!!]

mmh... i'm sorry that happened. but,, still trying to wrap my head around where the method is..i saw it but not from looking on here. still ended up here, but..yeah.

There is a thread somewhere

I did, and can see how this should work, but placing it in right spots might take practice. I got no options to practice it at the moment. Once i get chance, i will be testing it out further, as it seems much more peacefull solution than SN - and much quicker at it too.

From Exit blog:

"Ins & outs of compression
A slightly worrying variation on the compression method of suicide surfaced recently when a newspaper reported a 15-yr old using a blood-pressure cuff around his neck. He probably didn't intend to die by suicide – it could be considered a version of the 'choking' game, dangerously practiced by teenagers (especially in the USA) to get a temporary high from lack of oxygen to the brain. Unfortunately, a worrying number of such teenage experiments go fatally wrong. Additionally, there is a lack of reliable information on how those who are terminally or unbearably ill can use compression for an effective and painless suicide (of all the 'right-to-die' books on rational suicide, compression is only seriously mentioned in two – Geo Stone's Suicide and Attempted Suicide and our own thoroughly researched volume, Five Last Acts). Although relatively simple, a proper understanding is needed, particularly in order to effect a safe 'dress rehearsal' and to avoid blind alleys (of which certain types of blood-pressure cuffs can be one). It is a method so simple that, once mastered, can be used even in hospital or a place where the presence of helium or life-ending drugs would be quickly spotted and the patient prevented from taking their own life. Improper use of the compression method – apart from accidents while learning the technique – can result in a swelling feeling the head or discomfort around the neck. Yet it is not difficult and, as case studies have demonstrated, capable of being used with a wide range of equipment such as might be to hand almost anywhere or concealed on one's person."
