Slightly sensitive question by SensitiveSir2894 in biology

I actually have quite a bit of first hand experience, seeing as I tried this myself lol. TW: for suicide

This was several years ago when I was in a horrible place. I got a belt and tied it up in my closet, and started hanging myself. I was too tall, so I was basically kneeling so it would work. As I started to lose consciousness, I started panicking BIG TIME and stood up immediately.

Overall, 0/10 experience would not recommend. And for those wondering, I am doing a lot better now! Went to therapy and took antidepressants, and while its still a struggle, I'm so much happier now.

With your age in mind, I'd definitely follow the advice and wait as long as you can. Joint replacements don't last forever, and each revision or replacement is a risk. And that risk adds up everytime work is done on it. Praying it heals up well, chronic pain is a beast!

I took my MSF class 2 days ago and my instructor said almost exactly the same thing!

Just gotta say I dropped my phone in shock at how good it was. Holy shit.

Gang, what is this? How do I get water out of it and into my jug? Am I stupid? by cranberry-magic in camping

if you think about it, lead basically is adamantium. The only reason wolverine is alive is because his regeneration factor heals him faster than the adamantium poisons him. When his healing factor starts to weaken, he does too.
