how come ever time someone wants to kill there selves they cut there wrist?

Question:

Answers:
To sever a major vessel and bleed to death. It's horrible, if you are considering it, please get help!

Other Answers:
Because it is convenient. Not everybody can jump off buildings and shoot themselves with a gun. Everybody has a knife in their house.

its the quickest way, it cut a main blood vessel and you bleed to death

There is a main artery there, and although it's slow going, they will eventually bleed to death.

there are main arteries in your wrist and you could bleed to death by cutting them

they want to die or commit sucicide or either goth and worship the devil

At a guess, I would say that it is because they think it is the least painful way of doing it. Women are more likely to cut their wrists or drown themselves, while men are more likely to use a more violent means for suicide (ie. gun, hanging, etc.)

Probably because you can see the veins so easily. Plus people see and hear about others doing it, so they think it'll work. I use to be a cutter, and trust me--you'd have to slice with something really sharp very deep and probably more than a few times, otherwise you just wind up with a mess and ugly scars.

It is a large artery that is easy to get to so the suicidee can bleed out faster.

When they self destruct its sometimes not because they want to die but it is way for them to release all their pain. But If they permanently what to get rid of all the pain they usually commit suicide.

its the main artery you can bleed quicker there.

Personally, I wouldn't cut my wrists.

I would go to the top of the tallest building I could find, drink a fifth of Pepe Lopez tequila, eat as many different kinds of pills as possible, stab myself in the neck (hopefully piercing the jugular), then I'd jump off the building, while falling..put a gun in my mouth and pull the trigger.

I hate seeing videos of disfigured people who fail at attempted suicide. Geeeezzz.what makes them want to live then? I mean they are already failures and aren't good at anything, and to fail at killing yourself can't be good for your motivation to continue living. And then to have to live all disfigured.MAN, I just couldn't imagine.

So if you're gonna do it, I mean, by all means, you have to get it done right the first time!

Because it's fast (slower than blowing your head though). You have to cut really deep and sometimes it fails because you don't. You lose conscience before you die so you don't feel pain for too long.

The down side is that your body is smart. When it realizes that it's losing blood it will shut down circulation to that area. Meaning: Your blood won't go there. Your body isn't made to just shut down. It wants to preserve its self.

So if they want to kill themselves the wrist doesn't always work.

Well not everyone chooses this method to commit suicide.
People who self harm will cut their wrists to release pain and anger. Some people cut their wrists for attention.
Yes there are some arteries in the wrists, but they aren't the major ones. It takes ages for people to die this way as the person must bleed to death and that takes time.
But there are lots of other ways to commit suicide that are more effective and quicker than cutting wrists.
