Ive been contemplating taking my own life for 3+ years now and I think Im finally ready to do it. Im fine with the method being painful as long as it doesnt take too long. But Im just afraid with failing and being turned into a vegetable.....

What are som suicide methods with high success rates and that if failed wont destroy my brain? ( Im fine with possible physical injuries but I really couldnt handle if my brain was damaged )

I'm right there with you - the possibility of brain damage is really horrifying. SN is appealing to me because I've heard there's minimal consequences in case of failure, as well as being relatively painless, but I'm not an expert.

Problem is many of the methods are relying on cutting off oxygenation to the brain and other organs, which if you are found early or it doesn't work as well for your body, are more likely to result in brain damage due to the mechanism. SN relies on depriving oxygen in the bloodstream level, hanging obviously cutting off blood supply to deprive oxygenation, etc. Human body is frustratingly good at making sure you stay alive when you are purposefully trying to end it, but surprisingly fragile in accidental deaths. Destroying your body without possible resuscitation on purpose will probably be painful and possibly prolonged. Poisoning your body, for instance, with organophosphates or Tylenol, is a pretty surefire way to go but definitely not painless. I hope we'll soon have ways with easier access that can be relatively painless with guaranteed success.

SN is successful if you aren't found, painless and ez pz (If you can find the resources, and if you can be alone for 1 day) Same with hanging. Just make sure you aren't found and you are good.

Full suspension hanging from any sturdy anchor will work. Any sturdy tree branch outside will do. While there is some disagreement how much pain you might feel, it will not last for more then 12-15 seconds.

Also, if you can find a high enough spot to jump from that is also foolproof.

You can't fail with a proper inert gas setup, and the inexistence of survivors in medical reports prove it. Once you faint in the 0% oxygen environment it's over, you are not coming back from there. The method tells you if it is working from the get-go, self-verifies itself.​

I can definitely confirm that one. Very painful with Tylenol/Ibuprofen. It hurts so fucking bad & if you fail it's a pretty terrible experience in the ER (liquid charcoal, most likely intubation (it tasted so bad I chose it), risk of permanent kidney issues, TMI/TW -> you will shit black for days to over a week, & it's very very very painful. They also will most likely not give you pain medication during that time (I was denied it due to the huge influx I had put into my body).

Is hanging a very quick and not so painful method? I have always thought just light choking felt terrible (but then again maybe person goes quick so…)

It is very quick since you pass out in 10-20 seconds, but that's if you place it in the right place (cartrid arteries). If you don't place it in the right place you will start choking and your head will feel like its about to explode. I guess it's not painful because it's so short, and choking would only happen for a short period of time.
