Of course you can die from slitting your wrists. It's a common misconception, however, that in order to do so you simply slice your actual wrist area from one side to the other. You literally have to slice your arm from wrist to elbow niche. Lovely jubbly.Deva, same here honey... keep it that way ok? hug
Or cut it repeatedly to stop it scabbing.
My main advice to someone committing or thinking about committing suicide, while on topic, is to consult someone who deals with suicidal people. I can say that I think suicide is pointless because even in today's world, there is alot to live for.
None of us here, unless someone is a psychologist, are qualified to deal out such advice, just encouragement to do/not do it.
However, if you have ultimately decided to, don't post about it on a forum. Just go and do it.

I wish you all would NOT post ways to kill oneself...this thread WILL be closed. IMOP, justifiably for THAT content.
__I will say this to forestall any bad consequences: I know a boy who made full-length cuts. He survived with severe nerve damage to his hands. Don't disable yourself; life IS hard as it is, but you get gradually better at managing it and securing positive experiences...PROVIDED you don't place more obstacles in your way in the form of continuing disabilities. The survival instinct is powerful and coupled with a leavening of happiness/pleasure, will keep you limping on and on...for God'ssake, don't inlfict more troubles on yourself to further dilute your happiness.
