Do read the chapter on it in the PPH, stickied above. It looks quite painful from the description, generally.

If you end up choosing cyanide, make sure you post warning signs about it outside your appartment (or room) and make sure there will be noone else breathing the same air. Your corpse and the air around you will be very dangerous to other people, they need to know this so they do not die with you.

From my readings, it seems like a hellish and brutal way to die. Certainly can't be described as peaceful.

If you decide on cyanide, just keep in mind that it is more known than sn and is usually harder to obtain. Also if customs find cyanide they are more likely to assume you plan to murder someone instead of ctb.

Potassium cyanide is a potent inhibitor of cellular respiration, acting on mitochondrial cytochrome c oxidase, hence blocking oxidative phosphorylation. Lactic acidosis then occurs as a consequence of anaerobic metabolism. Initially, acute cyanide poisoning causes a red or ruddy complexion in the victim because the tissues are not able to use the oxygen in the blood. The effects of potassium cyanide and sodium cyanide are identical, and symptoms of poisoning typically occur within a few minutes of ingesting the substance: the person loses consciousness, and brain death eventually follows. During this period the victim may suffer convulsions. Death is caused by cerebral hypoxia. The expected LD100 dose (human) for potassium cyanide is 200–300 mg while the median lethal dose LD50 is estimated at 140 mg
