Discussion jumping or partial suspension?

[selfharmaniac]

Hey guys, im trying to decide wether to ctb by hanging(belt) or by jumping from 12 floor.
What would you do?

If I would be doing it correctly, then hanging. The jump is only 12 stories, so hanging has a higher chance. Do what best fits your circumstances. Do you have time alone? If not, jump. Are you more worried about success rate? Then hang, and so forth. I am not using hanging, so I am not entirely sure of the differences between using belt and others, but I presume it'd be the same mechanic. Some people have trouble with finding the artery, other's can't get the mind to jump, and so forth. In other words, make sure you can actually do the method before deciding. Good luck.

I'll prefer hanging. Jumping has a lot of risks. And since a close friend jumped I tried to not thinking in doing it too. So I can only figure to put a ligature on the neck.
Also your decision depends on what you can afford. Both methods can fail and can worse your life, so decide carefully.

If those were the two options. Jumping, no doubts.

I am stuck with partial or jumping too. I tried to hang myself but without success. So I am planning to jump now.

May I ask, why your hanging failed? Was it partial or full suspension?

Hi @selfharmaniac ! If you would like to talk to someone about anything you want, you can message me. Tbh it's quite heartbreaking to witness other people writing about planning to take their life... But as someone who's also suicidal I understand and respect your decisions, whichever they might be.

I'm in this thread because I'm considering jumping too for my personal reasons such as not being able to take a step back once it's started and it would take almost no skill, as I understand it so far cause I need to read more about it to make sure if I'll do that I'll do that properly. As for what I've read about it so far, people write different things, sometimes contradictory.
I'd be jumping off a higher than 12 stories building to increase the chances. I was considering 25 stories building or more.The only thing I'm worried about is the amount of pain and the agony. I think the upside of partial hanging is that if it's done properly, there'll be little pain and a person can die quickly

I'm also worried about surviving after an attempt and the consequences for heath and life, but that's an obvious thing...

Jumping works as demonstrated in this video (just I'm scared of heights) so can never bring myself to leap... unlike this guy:

If each story is 3.3 meters, then it would be ~39 meters. High chance. Hanging should be done correctly or else youre gonna end up real bad (i.e. brain damage). I suggest making sure that the method is the closest to 100% success rate (even tho 100% is impossible I know) before trying anything. You dont know where you could end up.
