How do people manage to hang themselves by tying bedsheets together?

Question

The tightening around the adams apple makes it impossible to swallow and it must be aborted. How do you hang successfully?

Damian - They must somehow be unconscious because the swallowing reflex is very strong

No welshman I don't find it amusing at all. I have suffered with schizophrenia and personality disorders for years seen as you want to know. I have tried all the tablets that psychiatry can throw at me. I have had ECT. IT has done nothing for me. I am fed up of psychiatry. I have felt suicidal day after day for years. I have had a few suicide attempts. I swallowed 84 tablets and it was not a cry for help. I was left with paralysis of both my arms till I had two operations. Anything more you need to know before you stop calling me a troll. I wanted facts without the usual - call this number, get help sort of thing so I did not say I was suicidal. Thank you.

Sorry to hear you've been through so much. It annoys me when people say "you must take your medication - it works wonders for me", when they have no effect on me (and you by the sound of it). You feel doubly hopeless because you are not of the class of people who it helps so much and the only answer you get from people is keep taking them. Only you know what you are going through and whether they help or not, and psychiatrists and family think they know better than your inner being.

Answer 1

You want be unconscience. You will be in agony. You will only become unconscience at the end. It is the most agonizing thing you can experience. You have the full weight of yours body dragging on your neck. You body is wriggling around trying to grasp for breath. You gurgle and gasp for breath. The rest I can't remember as I was then found dead and taken to intensive care for eleven days lucky to not be a vegetable.

Afterwards you have a great big bruise on your neck( well if you don't pad the rope or use cloth. I used twisted washing line rope) and you cant swallow or speak tidy. Your neck feels like hell and your swallowing is agony. Need any more details.

Edit:
By the way, that's Welsh woman!

2nd edit:

Yea, that comment about take your medication is right. If it were of any use I would not mind, but only ones which either made we worst, anti depressant, which the first psychiartist I had kept precsribing, or Olanzapine, which gave me such bad pains in my legs, and Depakote which made me violently sick were given. when last two did not work or rather were problematic for me, the second psychiatrist I was eventually given, after four years, dumped me and sent my records back to the Trust! It aint no good taking anything if it's going to cause you more problems or replace the ones you have with different ones!

Answer 2

I have to tell you that VNS is available in the UK and on the NHS but only some trusts will let you have it so it really does come down to the area you live in. take care good luck. I am sorry I will not help you hurt yourself going to the A&E would be a better choice.

Answer 3

The point of killing oneself is to make oneself die. If this is your goal then i dont think not being able to swallow would be a very high concern at this time. Especially considering that not being able to breath would be much more painful than not being able to swallow.

Answer 4

Seek medical advise, it is not a healthy question to be asking.

Answer 5

Here's how--pick up your phone and dial 911. Them "I live at such and such an address and I need somebody to show me how to hang myself." They will send somebody over to assist you.
