So, I'm baack.

I've decided SN or KN or whatever is too complicated and I'm tired of thinking abt it. A gun would be great but requires me to leave my apartment (im highkey agoraphobic) and if I chicken out I'd be completely broke after buying one.

Therefore partial/night-night/whatever way to compress my stupid carotids til I'm gone is my best bet.

Now, I've scoured the forum and am (as seemingly most other ppl) struggling to compress my carotids enough/in the correct manner in order to pass out. I am fat so maybe this is the problem? Any tips to find the sweet spot or just poke around til I get it right?

Also, the wonderful part of these methods is that you can use any number of common items but this is also a sticking point for me. Does anyone know if a shoelace, leather belt, or bathrobe belt would be best? Something else?

Lastly, what are the pros and cons of the different strangulation-based methods? I live alone and rarely see anyone so being found mid-attempt is not of much concern. I weigh over 200lbs so partial may pose a struggle in finding an adequate anchor point.

Thanks in advance!!

Hi, I struggled a lot too. I found that my sweet spot is around at 2/3 neck's height starting from the bottom, horizontally perfectly halfway from the middle of the neck and the side, if looked at from the front.
When I palpate there I feel a strong pulse and if I push towards the spine I get tunnel vision in a few seconds.
I bought a 8 mm rope, tied it at the height I was mentioning before, pulled upwards with my hand from above and replicated the tunnel vision. It also didn't seem to push too much on the windpipe, but maybe when there's more weight because of suspension, it will hurt more.

Night night is the hardest because you have to find also some proper padding that will stay in its place, be rigid enough to compress the carotids but not enough to just cruh ones's neck. It would be the most comfortable if performed correctly, I think, since the windpipe would be affected very little. Also there's no need for an anchor point, but one can easily back out.
Partial needs an anchor point, but it doesn't have to be that high or to sustain all bodyweight. Also backing out is an option, and movements and spasms could make blood flow to the brain again.
Ligature is just partial but with the pressure coming from torsion and not bodyweight I guess.

Thank you sm for the detailed reply! I was pushing *in* rather than towards my spine so let's give that a shot!
