The wrist method

[phoenixx]

I know its hard to cut your wrist to die but its one of the ways I'd want to go. I know it would be painful, but I'm a regular self harmer (have been for 9 years) and I'm use to feeling A LOT of pain, even hit an artery once and have cut my wrist very deep too many times to count.

My question is, do you think taking a lot of aspirin/blood thinners would help with bleeding out? Maybe alcohol to help with SI/pain?

The body tends to centralize the available blood to protect all vital organs. And he does that very effectively by closing all peripheral blood vessels, radialis inclusive. If you want to do it right, cut the femoral artery. You need a strong will to do that.

Vitamin K antagonists (like Warfarin) are much more effective than aspirin.

You need to cut almost down to the bone.
And cut upwards not sideways like in the movies..
Lying in a warm bathtub of water to let the blood flow.

Not the idle way to CTB. Chances are that your body will kick into self protect mode. Also might take minimum an hour to lose enough blood to pass out.

That 1 hour will be the longest of your life. High chance your SI will kick in. Thoughts of sorrow and self pity will creep in. You must be VERY commited to carry through this method.
