Apologies if it's been answered before, a running bowline knot for the noose is more reliable than the simpler slip knot?

The multiple practice and real attempts, I was on the verge of passing out. I was numb, vision getting patchy, and my body getting warm. (This was roughly 5 to 10 secs).

I still having trouble with whole gasping for air thing. I can sorta deal with SI when it comes to putting the rope around my neck but what about the body's natural response to gasp for air? Would alcohol or benzos help depress that response?

I had the rope above my hyoid bone but I've read resources that said people to put the rope up 1/3 of the neck to only compress the carotid artery and not trachea? (Not at the base of the neck, little bit above but below the Adams apple)

So I posted this in a thread I created earlier today in a thread and someone messaged me suggesting that I post it in here as well so this is word for word what I posted earlier

Wow! So literally less than half an hour ago I was testing my set up. The first time I'd tried it. I'd never attempted to make myself pass out before or anything like that. I just set up and thought I'll just give it a try. Tbh I don't think I was convinced I'd get it right. Wow. I'm using both a belt and a rope and I put them round my neck and lowered, a little uncomfortable around the neck pressure wise but absolutely no pain and before I could think of anything else I'd semi passed out I guess you'd say I didn't realise I'd gone. I was still thinking and almost having an internal convo but I'd gone the next thing I know I am aware that I'm struggling and I'm panting or gasping and then almost out of shock I stood up. I'm not sure if that's because it was only supposed to be a test and I stood up out of shock or if that's going to be a problem I need to address. But wow. It was so quick that I went semi conscious. I didn't even realise it had happened at first. My concern now is I've just looked in mirror and there are now like little purple sports all over my face that people will notice. I've hoping they will fade. But I wasn't expecting it so be so fast, painless and easy. Maybe it doesn't remain painless or whatever but wow.

Hi
I'm a veteran of inert gas and firearm threads , checked out the hanging thread as maybe it will be more sutable for my incredible SI. Tht is plaguing me

I've scanned a bit, just wondering if there's a gold standard as far as knots, belt or rope, or whatever, and best location and exact procedure.

For example, on the innert gas thread for exit bag, has, gold standard step-by-step procedure, and exact tools

OP seems pretty vague on exact procedure and tools in this thread .

Thanks

For knots. the best for the noose is the slipknot. For the anchor point, water bowline.
I cannot answer for belts and ropes. I personally think ropes are better but as long as you're not using something thin and stretchy you'll be good, but what you listed are the standard.
Best location? If you don't want to be found immediately, a place like a forest is good.
