I decided my method would be hanging unless i can find another method with easier accessibility. Now I can't perform a full suspension due to nothing being high enough in my room to do one. So a partial hanging will have to do, I have managed to make a slipknot (i think?) with a cable, but I haven't tested it yet. I seen in most cases people using cable if rope wasn't available.

What position should i do for a partial hanging?

i seen various people saying i should do it "sitting" and I have read the resource from SS on how to hang so it seems like this method is supported by that.

Good Anchor Points?

My idea for an "anchor point" is a closet rod, there is two in my room and both secured by nail's thus i believe it would be the best choice i got. but for whatever reason if i can't pull that off i also seen people try and sometimes succeed with a doorknob, though i am highly skeptical its easy to pull that off since it seems pretty awkward..

Conclusions

Honestly, I'm more afraid of failing and dealing with complications/getting caught then the actual attempt itself. But i think it is possible with enough determination.

Maybe reading these threads will help you:

📌 Partial Hanging, brief summary: losing consciousness, postures, reviewing common problems

📌 AreWeWinning's detailed explanation about the positions in Partial Hanging

📌 'How to locate the carotid arteries?'

It would be better if you could buy a rope. The Arbor Knot (also known as Noose Knot with stopper knot) is recommended for the ligature, as it tightens itself when weight is applied.

As for the anchor points, you'll need to test them to make sure they can hold your weight. You can hang from the bar/rod with your hands and swing a little, and see what happens. Everything must be firm and sturdy, and not show any signs of damage or deformation.

Thank you, i recall someone saying 1 inch thick manila rope would be the best to buy. It seems cheap anyways.

It is advisable to use synthetic materials (as they are stronger, such as polyester and polypropylene) and not natural ones (like, manila, hemp, jute). Also, since they are synthetic, the ligature will slide better without getting stuck; its surface is smooth.

1 inch.. in millimeters= 25 mm (I think it's too thick; between 10 and 14 mm would be fine)

I was slightly confused at first, but yeah were on the discussion of rope thickness.

there is quite a few selections at 10mm rope, though is there a specific amount of foot i should be buying?
Or is it better to buy a cheap selection, and then cut what is needed?

The amount of rope will depend on where you want to tie it. They generally sell 10-meter lengths, so then you can cut it to your liking or roll up the excess.

Make sure the rope is in good condition. Sometimes, in some sections of stores, they offer the product at a cheaper price because it is defective or has some fault.
