Method Homemade tourniquet/ self strangulation

[Lifeless mindset]

The key to this method is making sure the carotid artery's stay closed, cutting off blood to the brain. To make this i will be using a shoe string and a fork. First im gonna sit on the floor against a wall, then Im gonna wrap the shoe string around my neck making sure i have about 3 fingers of space between the string and my neck and also making sure the shoe string is tied above the adams apple to prevent blocking the airway which would result in my fight or flight to kick in. Next, i will slide the fork into the space between my neck and the string. Finally, i will start to turn the fork slowly until i start to feel dizzy. Once i start to turn dizzy i will continue to turn the fork until i go unconscious and within 10 minutes i will be dead from asphyxiation. It will be difficult for the fork to unwind because it will get caught on my chin or collar bone.

I would be worried about when you go unconscious that you'd let go of the fork, slump over, and start to breathe again

Or fall on the fork and stab it into your neck but also be loose enough to breathe again.

This can be avoided by adding a zip-tie to the setup in order to hold the windlass (fork in this case) at its intended torque.

Did you get any further with this method? These are the only kinds of methods available to me at the moment, but they haven't been inducing unconsciousness..

I feel like if I was more committed, it would've worked. If I were to try again I'd use something like a broom stick or a cane instead of something small and short like a fork.

Thanks! Is this still a method you're considering?

No it is not. Jumping is my preferred method.
