I have decided I want to die by cutting. What tools do I use? Can I just cut one wrist? What can I take for the pain to help in the beginning(like the first few cuts) what will keep the blood going and not stop?

@ifeelsobad from all I've heard it's very difficult to die that way, are you sure you know enough about it? I don't know if there are that many successful attempts.

It's one of the worst methods with least success rates. Wrists don't bleed nearly enough to die of a blood loss and the body part to aim for for purely blood loss is thighs (source: my biology professor). Also it's painful. I'd still advise against it. Please think it trough, try and get some help before making the final decision.

Have to agree here with @Raskolnikov's Axe. I think unless you're a habitual self-harmer with experience of cutting deep enough to know where your arteries are, it's unlikely you'll succeed with this method. You'd be better off wildly stabbing your thigh until you hit your femoral artery. Still wouldn't recommend that either.

I winced when you said 'hit your femoral artery'. 😬

I just don't know what else to do. I was going to put the car In the garage and sit in it but I can't drive and the garage is full anyway so it doesn't have room for a car(even if I cleaned it all out I still can't drive so)

Use a sharp, thin object. The goal is to make a precise, fast and very deep cut. It would be good to take an anticoagulant for greater success. You can mark with a marker the area where you decide to cut

i don't think cutting is a very good idea or a very good way to go, even. it's painful and has very little to no success rate at all. you can still explore your options through this resource compilation: https://sanctioned-suicide.net/threads/suicide-resource-compilation.3/

however, if you really plan on going through with cutting, i hope you'd do proper research about it and know the proper way to go about it. i wish you all the best and that you find your peace soon. remember not to do anything impulsively. best wishes 🫂

Likely hood of success is low. The human brain will defend itself to survive. You would have to be willing to endure a massive amount of pain to reach to artery properly. I've tried. Didn't even come close. Please find another method my friend.

I know you are desperate, I've been there. It's just the success rate of working is so low. I'd hate to see you hurt yourself and just end up in a mental facility.

What else could I do instead?
