Help What effects would me stabbing myself in the chest have?

[lohre2000s]

Now, this is a very silly question.
How big would the pain be?
What would happen?
I would die after a few hours right?

It surely would be dramatic, but certainly messy. That is if you are able to bypass the mental block of being able to stab yourself in such manner. There are a lot of different scenarios that could occur depending where exactly in the chest you are stabbed. None of them are pretty. Either you stab your heart and it gushes blood into the sac around it, stopping the heart muscle from expanding and contracting, essentially stopping your heart from beating. A slow, painful, messy death. If you hit the lung, well, the vacuum will be gone and air will fill your lung and cause it to collapse, so you'll suffocate and you won't be able to breathe. Also extremely painful! Don't recommend
Cheers!

Self-stabbing and my experience.

18th of March last year I stabbed myself with the intention of dying. Unsurprisingly, this isn't a common method to ctb and I haven't seen much if anything written about it, so I thought I would make a post about my experience. TLDR: it's way harder to die this way than you think, and surviving...

You could leave yourself with so many permanent issues if you survive that I feel the odds aren't worth it. The pain level is odd to describe, it hurts on the first stab but otherwise with blood lost and if you suffer with dissociation or whatever, you may not feel it much beyond a mid cold and gory sensation. Lots of blood. Very scary when the body kicks in. You end up falling if not lying down which can help knock you out.
Overall I wouldn't recommend-

Are you trying Harakiri or something? Don't do it
