chronically unlucky

I'm young and was recently in my prime of life. Because of that, my SI is ridiculously high despite the sometimes nearly unbearable intensity of pain I've been in 24/7 due to the sudden onset of a chronic health condition that is likely to remain with me as long as I'm still alive. I came up with some interesting ideas though perhaps impractical ways to help counter my SI. When firing squad executions are performed, only 1 of the shooters unbeknownst him has live ammunition. Therefore, no one knows who really killed the executed and there is no guilt or shame of murder for knowing that one is directly responsible for ending another's life. In that same vein, I wonder if you can apply that principle to counter the fear of killing yourself and dreading the death you know you just incurred. Just for illustration purposes, imagine 6 cups of nembutal. One of them contains a lethal dose and the rest will knock you out. Therefore, you never know if you're really going to die. You can comfort yourself with thoughts like, "I'm just going to sleep." and you won't be afraid. Because 5/6 of the glasses will just make you sleep. If you were to repeat this process multiple times, eventually you'd pick the lethal glass, but you would never know it. You would just go to sleep, and of course catch the bus, except unaware. Perhaps, this is the closest you can come to "a natural death" (natural = unaware when death will take you or if it's your day to die) while still intentionally CTBing. What do you think?
