So the tourniquet/carotid method does actually work

[ultrasharpy123456]

I was talking to a member (keeping them anon) just now and they said within seconds they starting to black out and woke up about like 3 seconds later. And they were using a spoon and something like cloth or a rope I guess. So it does actually work just like in the five last acts.

I guess it does take a bit of practice. I'd advise putting it up on the chin as high as possible. I think I'm going to ctb tonight or tomorrow. I have a doctor's appointment to see if what I have can be fixed. I don't think it can.

I have been practicing this, but I still can't get any results.

width and soft clothing work for me to successfully restrict carotid blood flow. i didn't tested a tourniquet with it yet, just held sides of clothing and pressing it back until vision blacken. i heard that problem with this method lies in possible untying after you lost consciousness from.

It's good to hear that it does work, I guess that it's always an option for ctb. I think that I would fear something going wrong personally if I tried to attempt. The fear of failure in general is what holds me back from attempting, failing sounds so horrifying. But thank you for sharing this information. I wish you the best with what you are doing.

I was just testing it out on my arm not my neck and once you get your tourniquet tight enough just take the cloth sticking out of the knot you made and have it go under the loop that's surround your neck.
Here's a video for an idea:

Yeah you know fear of failure is always a problem. I kinda feel some of that myself but now I have a different way of making a tourniquet. I follow this book:
I haven't really gotten to the point of passing out because I haven't tested that out yet (saving it for when I actually am going to ctb) but I do feel a sense of euphoria when I do this so I have to be careful.
