What resources do you recommend for self-studying things like surgical technique and anatomy, so that I can perform simple surgeries on myself?

Anon, unless you are ready for excruciating pain and horrible blood loss you need access to at least electrocautery (or a fuck ton of hemostats and laps) + local anesthetic. Otherwise you are just committing elaborate suicide a la sepukku. The instances of people doing surgery on themselves were all in modern surgery suites with a bunch of assistants and years of expertise to go by touch.

This book literally is about the opposite of quick easy surgery on yourself, it goes down how to do complex surgeries in an active war zone lol

Chopping off your penis in a psychotic rage is not surgery.

>Leonid Ivanovich Rogozov (Russian: Лeoни́д Ивáнoвич Póгoзoв; 14 March 1934 – 21 September 2000) was a Russian general practitioner and surgeon who took part in the Sixth Soviet Antarctic Expedition at Novolazarevskaya Station from September 1960 to October 1962. He is best known for performing a surgery to remove his own appendix, an auto-appendectomy, after he began suffering from appendicitis while deployed there in April 1961. The incident, which occurred because Rogozov was the only medical professional among his entire team, prompted the Soviet government to reform the safety policies for all personnel at the country's Antarctic research facilities.
It's possible but you'll probably just end up going into shock and the bleeding out.
