Blood loss can certainly result in shock. Any person who slits his or her wrists certainly is in need of medical attention.

When someone slits their wrist what happens?

A person that wants to slit their wrists is in a great deal of mental anguish and should seek psychological counseling. Sometimes people are depressed and feel they will never be happy and will trying cutting their wrists. Some will not cut deep enough (not all that easy to cut ones wrists because of tendons, etc.) and may be superficial and a way (unknown to the victim) that they are reaching out for help. Others make a very good job of it and know what they are doing. The human body has 8 - 10 pints of blood in their body depending on their body build. It takes the loss of two to three pints of blood to go into shock and a loss of four to six pints of blood to cause death (depending on the body build and the age and health of the person.) Death can take a long time because it depends on how healthy the person is and cutting ones wrists the blood flows and doesn't spurt so it can take a very long time. The person will feel dizzy, weak and generally lapse into shock.
