Wrist cutting bathtub lethality

[misatosdiary]

Ive heard different things about blood clotting but I've also heard of someone who attempted like this and only said she was lucky she was still alive. I haven't heard anything about the agony by this method but which layer would you need to reach? Styros or beans? Also, whats the lethality percentage taking ur cutting deep enough and your wounds arent closing? Why do I barely see someone using this method except for in movies and or books? Answers are appreciated!

Cutting is a shitty suicide method with an incredibly low success rate. You are more likely to just give yourself a disability than you are to die.

You aren't going to die from cutting into the dermis or hypodermis layers (I should know, because I've hit those layers many times before while SHing).

I can't quote figures for success but it is well known that the reason it isn't spoken about much is because it is very unlikely to work. Cutting wrists or wherever isn't like in the movies where its 1 quick cut and lie back, it would require real determination to do enough damage to yourself that you bleed out.

Extremely low success rate. Not recommended.
