Partial suspension hanging. I'll be hanging myself in my closet and I am putting a new metal bar in it because the one I have now is too weak and flimsy.

1. My closet is 69 inches high and I weigh 154 pounds. Is there a specific height I should put the metal bar or does it matter?

2. What kind of rope do I need and what knot should I be using? I've read that a slip knot is best for partial suspension.

3. What should I do to practice and make sure I'm compressing my caritod arterty?

4. I've read that placing the knot right above the adams apple is the best way to do this. Is this true?

I would really appreciate your help. A single person doesn't have to answer all questions.

Why? Guilt? I understand that but just know there are no other options for me. I have already tried getting help.

First of all i am very sorry for what happened to you that led you to this decision, i really hope you tried everything including medication to help you.
1. 69 inches is sufficient for partial hanging
2. nylon rope around 9mm should be good, not too thick and not too thin to cut into your throat, for partial hanging you should use slipknot, for full suspension hangmans noose
3. i am not sure about the practice but knot behind your neck and rope right above adam´s apple ( right under the chin) should do the trick
4. to calm your nerves you can use "benzos" your GP can prescribe you something like alprazolam

Thank you. I tried everything including medication and I assure you there are no other options. It's gotten worse and worse and I'm pretty much agoraphobic at this point. My depression is very severe and I haven't left my house all that much in 4 years. I left my house once this year. I spend the vast majority of my days in bed and have done for the last 4 years. I dropped out of school. I'd never be able to hold down a job. Just explaining a bit of my situation.

Just one more question that I forgot to ask if you dont mind. How many inches of rope should be hanging down from the metal bar or does this not matter? I'm afraid I'll tie it so that it will be too long or too short.

this MEGAthread should be very helpful to you https://sanctioned-suicide.net/threads/how-to-hang-yourself.1183/

just like in picture position 2 and 3 are prefered, so tie the rope so that you are not too high or too low "near lying"

Hi LikeMike. Remember that it's extremely easy to slip into unconsciousness

Just to clarify. Some people just want to test things out, only to end up slipping into unconsciousness. It would be extremely easy for someone to kill themselves by accident.

You can test/practice without tying the rope off and just using your hands to pull up. You can just let go before black out.
