Anatomy - a long-suffering tried to slit his collar, his suicide attempt be unsuccessful, why? (more details below)?

A patient be admitted to hospital next to cuts on his neck after attempting suicide. It appears that, whilst trying to sever the vessel in his carotd sheath, he have extended and rotated his head surrounded by order to expose more of his nouns. What were the anatomical reason for the suicide attempt being unsuccessful?

Answer:
When he turns the collar to the opposite side,the upper portion of belly of Sternocleidomastoid would come more anteromedially to overlap the carotid artery.
Since it is difficuilt to cut through a muscle belly,he must own experienced immense pain which reflexly inhibited the muscles of the paw.
When he uses his neck it includes the use of muscles and muscles are harder to cut. (I think)
It be an attempt to get attention not to commit suicide.

Suicides usually slit in attendance wrists, overdose on some kind of
pill or shoot themselves. But they don't cut their carotid, its to
difficult.

MERRY CHRISTMAS and hold a nice day.

Thank you particularly much, while you're up.
He hit the muscle first and didn't cut deep plenty.
most likely took most of the laceration to the larnyx? carotid & jugular sit slightly bringing up the rear the larnyx and the muscle in the collar that runs laterally along the neck and mandible.that much i remember from A&P class.
Sternocleidomastoids would help yourself to a lot of adjectives. He should have gone high and a little more forward, at the angle of the chin, with more of a stab than a slice.
By extending and rotating his d¨Ścolletage, he stretched and tensed his sternocleidomastoid muscle. This would make it protrude more, making it more plausible that he would cut the muscle instead of the blood vessels, which stayed spinal column in their conventional place. The only vessel that runs outside the muscle, the external jugular carry the least amount of blood, and would offer you the least arbitrary of bleeding out if it is cut compared to the other major blood vessel in your collar.
the carotid sheath lies fairly wide. under cover of voluminous muscles like sternocleidomastoid. its fairly difficult to sever ur carotid artery or internal jugular without a severe blow near a sharp instrument...a normal slice won't do it.

also..strange he would try that unless he have some anatmoical knowledge - the wrist is the first nouns ppl try and if they try the neck most ppl cut the anterior region (larynx, trachea etc.)
