As the title says, I attempted twice yesterday. I attempted once standing, the other sitting. I found my sweet spot I believe, as there was no pain the second time. Since I was on the floor and slowly losing consciousness it was really relatively peaceful and relaxing. I had a loud fan next to me and slowly stopped hearing it, I stopped feeling, hearing, tasting, all my senses slowly closed off one by one. it was so peaceful. as something I chose to claim for me as a method I wouldn't try again, it was actually really nice. Truly I am surprised.

It possibly has to do with position, and finding my sweet spot. I was hanging from my doorknob rather than hanging from up above like usual. I placed the rope right below the Adam's Apple right where it could constrict the carotid but not the wind pipe. I slowly applied pressure and then let myself go limp, I closed my eyes, it was like just falling asleep. My ears were ringing, my head was pounding, but no pain, no suffering, just static white noise coming To take me, like an effective hug. it was really nice and comforting. Probably the most comfortable I've felt during an attempt so far.

I had to stop myself the second time because I was truly going to do it this time. Instead id really like to write some notes and do a will. I'll probably clean my room and give away my things first, and prepare some stuff beforehand. Ill spent time with the people I've loved, and the people who love me, and then I'll hold my breath and let the darkness take me. And then maybe with this, all the suffering I've caused will be undid.

Love you all,
Aphid

It's the same as my experience. I used a sitting position. You don't need much force to compress the carotid arteries while still being able to breathe. I'm 176 cm tall, weigh 51 kg, with blood pressure 96/60. It might be because I'm quite thin

I'm not and it was still really calming, genuinely it was amazing I have no idea how to feel. Just feel at peace. I know I can do it now, now I just need to do the preliminaries

Were you seated below the doorknob or were you laying down?
