hi friends.

About a month ago I had a suicide attempt where I got really drunk and tried to cut deep enough to hit an artery, but obviously it didn't work.

I mean, there was still a lot of blood and the cuts were fairly deep and I had to get 13 stitches, but I'm wondering how much deeper would I have to cut to actually hit an artery/vein/major blood source? Sorry this is graphic. Like, I've cut deep enough that the fat of my arm is exposed, but how much deeper do I need to go?

One of my doctors was upset with me and she said that I'm at risk of hitting a tendon and potentially losing hand function but I don't care about that, I want to die lmao.

Also whereabouts on the arm/wrist is best?

Has anyone had any near death experiences with cutting an artery/vein that they can share?

I'm afraid to disappoint you, but that's the method for people who don't actually want to die and just want to get attention as the chances of failure are very high. People who're more serious about this method cut their wrists horizontally instead of vertically. Honestly please choose a different and more peaceful method. You have so many options. Just check out the resources mega thread.

You have more chance to losing all use of your hands then you do bleeding out and dying!
It's not worth even looking at, a few search option will give you a few threads in regards to this
