If I was going to hang myself from a tree (I'm not) I would look for a horizontal branch. That seems much more practical than trying to attach a rope to the trunk of the tree.
Cut and paste from another post.
Anchor points:
You don't need a branch. You can tie the rope to the tree's trunk. (The only risk is that you might turn around and grab the trunk after you've stepped off.) I explain how a trunk can be used and why it is safe to use in this post. Note that you don't necessarily need a Running Bowline. An Anchor Hitch or a Round Turn & Two Half Hitches work exceptionally well too. They are secure on their own, but you can also tie an extra Half Hitch around the load end, or add a stopper knot at the free end as 'insurance'.
The knots mentioned above also work on branches at any angle. The tree's rugged surface creates friction, which prevents the rope from sliding downward along the branch or the trunk.
They also work perfectly well on horizontal beams and bars, and most anchor points in general. (They're called hitches, after all.) However, if the bar or beam has a smooth surface (i.e. it's not a tree), it has to be horizontal – or there has to be something that prevents the rope from sliding downward along its axis.

That's OK, I don't care.
I just replied because I wanted to mention the other post too, which might be useful.Similar threads
