This is a serious post. My stepson died last year at the age of 12, and the cause of death was sexual hanging. I know kids can do this, but his included hanging from the rafters in an area that was inder construction. It also included women's undergarments.

If you know anything about this, don't kids usually start off by doing this in their bedrooms, with maybe a necktie around the neck, or something similar? Isn't the hanging from the ceiling and the cross dressing a bit advanced?

Any insight is greatly appreciated.
 
autoeroticasphyxiation. There are a few threads about it, let me see if I can do a search. And yes it happens, probably more than you know.

I think the cross dressing thing is totally a different thing and doesn't go hand in hand with the asphyxia.
 
It's serious, no doubt. I lost a friend to erotic asphyxiation when I was in the 10th grade, and it still makes me sad. I have enjoyed breath play in a partnered context, but from what I have read, it's fairly unanimous that breath play is a bad idea to do solo. If something goes wrong, there is no recourse.

I found a couple of links that might be of use.

This deals with how-tos and safety.

This deals with physiology and specific risk.

My heart goes out to you for the loss of your stepson.

Thanks Superlittlegirl!


I appreciate you giving me those links. I have looked, but I didn't find those 2.
 
I can't seem to find the threads.

however, I have some experience with this topic if you'd like to PM me about it.
 
You're more than welcome. I am sorry that I couldn't find any statistical data, but because what you're inquiring about involves information about minors, it's probably supressed. Most families probably aren't terribly forthcoming about the details.

I'd suggest that you contact an LGBT (Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual & Transgendered) organization and ask if they can guide you toward any resources. Because the incidence of youth suicide is so disproportionately high with LGBT youth, the community has really worked toward suicide prevention and support for bereaved parents. They probably have access to resources I haven't even considered yet.

Good luck, and I hope you find peace and resolution.
