Method Which would you rather, drown or partial hang?

[savory]

Curious what you all would pick and why, if you care to share. They're the methods I've considered as of late. For me it comes down to the aftermath. I canceled out drowning because I don't want a missing person's report or my death investigated and in the news. With partial hanging at home I'm confident I wouldn't be disturbed, though I live with family, and it'd be an obvious suicide.

I know a lot of people consider drowning would be too unpleasant a way to go out, but it appeals to me. Probably in part because it's a popular method for poets (no I'm not a poet) Also, in either method I planned to use sedatives to aid in (hopefully) calming me.

They both sound like horrific methods to me, all I wish for is to die in peace and never suffer ever again, I just want to die painlessly with no risks of trying to die going wrong and leading to way worse suffering.

 

[ijustwishtodie]

Partial hanging sounds like a better method to me but I personally think that drowning isn't as bad as people make it out to be. People act like it's the worst pain imaginable and I just don't think that's the case

No doubt, that is ideal. May you get your wish

I can semi reliably start passing out without discomfort when practicing partial so I would much rather prefer it.

I've gotten that general impression from others too, and I feel differently...though I can't quite articulate why. For me, jumping is one method that doesn't appeal to me. The fall is terrifying for me to imagine, not necessarily the impact.

It's like choosing between a disaster and a catastrophe. I love instant deaths and those methods horrify me.

I feel partial hanging is suitable for me because I like breath play, it's familiar -though no, that's not to say I know all of what to expect using strangulation to CTB. I've never blacked out from it.

How is it you've been practicing partial, if you don't mind sharing? I've not experimented with it alone.

*Before I explain, let me just say that practicing any type of hanging or even types of breathplay can be dangerous and lead to damage or death. I do this knowing the risks and I encourage others to do their own research on this. Compression of the carotids can cause heart irregularities and even it stopping, you can die without even passing out.

Im also into breath play, I think it helps. I use a 10mm rope, fixed loop(no constricting knots or it can get stuck unintentionally), I get under my anchor on my knees keeping my rope just thrown over the anchor(nothing to catch on), and I use just the palm of my hand to grip the rope(I don't twist the rope around my hand or arm for better grip bc it can catch and get stuck if you pass out), then I make sure my rope is positioned correctly while holding the rope taut and then I just lower myself.

Sounds like you know what you're doing and are well prepared I don't think I've ever used rope, more the DIY grab whatever's around type. I'm a little embarrassed, I feel like that says so much about me I may not be good at planning.

 

[dontwakemeup]

I'd rather take the drowning, but can I please have warm water with bubbles and a scent of lavender I don't want to die cold and alone. You can make it easier and murder me, whatever is faster and less painful, I'll take

I prefer rope as in my experience it seems like there's less chance of it getting caught or stuck on itself. Also so I know the feeling since it's what I'll use if I commit

I like being prepared and knowing what to expect, it helps me feel ready and in control. Don't be embarrassed, the process is different for everyone

I would be happy to drown but I understand what you mean regarding aftermath. Hugs.

You made me laugh, thank you. On a serious note. I have those thoughts too

Thank you, Anna. Since drowning seems to be a decidedly no go method for many people, why would you be happy to drown? If you don't mind.

Can you imagine someone trying to murder any of us? I would be so happy and thankful lol

 

[danfritz]

If you are serious, go to watch people die.tv and check out both methods.

IMO neither is preferable. I plan to use a nitrogen exit bag or else find a remote location with freight trains and get run over at night so the engineer doesn't see me.

Partial hanging. Definitely. Drowning might be painful unless your going in drunk.

I used to watch those when I was home alone as a teen, end up spooking myself out walking down the hallway imagining someone following behind.

Interesting how you have one method that's considered peaceful and the other is !??!!!! lol I don't like the idea of getting run over or crushed, myself. And the noise, I'd prefer quiet.

No def wouldn't be sober.

I like your name and caption combo

I always think drowning would be nice, the natural and quick suppression of body instincts as the water rushes in. I hear you lose consciousness almost immediately after actually inhaling the water, but ig I'm not certain that's true. I imagine it'd be even smoother if you were making a conscious effort not to fight, just allow the water pressure to embrace you. Sedatives sound like an amazing idea too, that would be like heaven. Hanging is too unreliable and gross, to me. I'd hate to found like that, even if I know drowning would bloat the corpse and make it ugly too. But you could tie a cinderblock in a drowning method (assuming you go to the ocean or a lake) which could hopefully keep the corpse from being found.

I never thought about any of those methods. I rather drink something and sleep. Sn is my method

Kind of like the idea of my corpse being found in an unrecognizable state, but no not from drowning. Waterlogged corpses are the epitome of grotesque to me. Part of my plan was to wear weights, but no guarantee my corpse or parts wouldn't wash ashore eventually (and perhaps at different intervals). Makes me think of the Laci Patterson case.

I've seen photos of people who did partial hang/ self strangulation. They don't look so bad to me..unless they over did it on the pressure.

I wish it were as simple as you wrote it, drink something and sleep. I considered it briefly but getting the SN and doing the prep work seems too complicated a process for me. And I'm almost certain I'd gag and vomit from the description of it despite the suppressant.

Hmm, the more I think about it, the more I think you might be right about wanting to be found unrecognizable. There's definite merit in my corpse being grotesque, maybe symbolism? I'm still squicked by the idea of a hanging, personally, even if it would actually look "prettier". Drowning just feels more full-proof, along with the sense of peace? Maybe I'll try to find some photos myself. It's a bit difficult to guarantee not being found I suppose unless you wander off into Appalachia or some equivalent. But I'd hate to die to the elements, it invites guns but they've always felt terrible in my hands regardless of intent.

Drowning whilst weighted down is pretty fool proof though, way more deadly than partial hanging. You weigh yourself down enough you aren't surfacing. It'll be a couple minutes suffering max.

Unless your corpse is found pretty soon though it is going to be an utter mess though that's true enough. Anymore grotesque than say taking a 12 gauge and .00 buck to the head though ? Not sure about that.

Elaborate?

And sorry, I edited my first statement, it didnt make sense. I meant if my corpse were unrecognizable, my body/appearance as I knew it (and harshly judged it) could not be judged. I wouldn't prefer to traumatize anyone with my drowned corpse, in case it was in the water long anyway.

I'm the same in regards to guns, don't like handling/ shooting guns. I was actually surprised at that. Jarring to say the least and not something I desired to get used to.

 

[Tuonetar_]

Drowning seems like it would be terrifying at first, but towards the end as you loose consciousness I imagine it would be serenely beautiful.

It's the eyeballs. Brains, misshapen fragmented skull, okay, but not the rearranged googly eyes

Oh, I see, that's a lot more post-death situational awareness than I had, I assumed only first responders would see my corpse, but even if that were the case that would be another awful trauma on their plate. It's hard to find a kind way to die? I get wrapped up in the abstract thoughts, think my "symbolism" here I think would be in the defilement of what I am perceived of as in my everyday life. To be found after going missing, if I'm found, my corpse being bloated and disgusting/unrecognizable would be vindicating? Maybe fulfilling? But maybe those both come from the hurt, malicious parts of me that want to blame the world and show how it's made me feel, finally wrought on the outside... But I'm operating under an assumption of my body being judged regardless, you may be more correct on society not being able to judge it at all by then, rendering it a bit pointless to care how ugly the corpse would look, and it feels a bit vain to fixate on I fear. I'm not sure ultimately if "symbolism" is the right word to describe the thought, but I'm not sure what I'd mean in it's stead.

It's nice to see a similar gun sentiment though, I always feel like it's a bit weak of me to not want that when guns are such an "obvious" answer.

I'll just say it- portrayals in media tend to make drowning look ethereal. I'm sure there's writings on this, the history of drowning and the symbolism of water etc. It's romantic!

I have complicated but similar feelings about guns.

I actually used to hunt all the time, I could still go but I just don't have the energy anymore. I did it to supplement our food because I've always been kind of poor. But even then, guns have always scared me. Hate it and am constantly awareof it and am uncomfortable when I'm wielding one. But they're tools just like anything else, so I just would use them anyway. It just felt incredibly weird holding them
