After reading the post about how painful sn is I'm not that sure anymore about what method should I go for? Which one would you choose?
Personally neither, Hanging is hit or miss, because not only is there a risk failing and surviving with severe disabilities, there's a method too I suppose if I had to choose between those I'd go SN because its peaceful and that's ideal for most of us I would think. Hell when life is continuously kicking you in the face at least your final journey should be positive at the very least.
I am not telling you which method to choose. With that said, I too am confused about the conflicting information from the various SN attempts on the forum.
Some of the viable methods that I am still considering are:
Charcoal: Carbon monoxide
Carotid Compression: Less painful than hanging
Chemical Suicide: Extremely lethal
With carbon monoxide and chemical suicide, you have to be careful to let others know what you are doing. The last thing I want is for my attempt to take someone else with me. My suffering should be mine alone.

I personally would still choose SN over hanging. I'm not an SN cheerleader, I've criticized it, I don't buy into it being peaceful, nor do I buy into the thread you're referencing, and I was vocal about it there and will leave it there, not drag it over here. But I've researched the heck out of the method, journaled about it, even accidentally got a little bit of it in my system when I blood tested (had to drink a lot of water, I do NOT recommended playing around with it). Therefore I know some symptoms I'll experience that I'll have difficulty with, and I have made/am currently making more provisions to lessen them if I decide to go that route.
I've tried partial hanging many times, in a variety of positions, it's too intense. If there were terrorists at my door, I would overcome the SI because there would be a greater threat, therefore hanging would become survival. But there's no such threat, and I'm not desperate enough to go through the torture of even full suspension hanging. Desperation can do much to overcome SI, I think.
I'd advise if you're feeling fear to step back, do some self-care, and let it pass, then revisit that thread. Fear is a powerful motivator, but it can also override critical thinking.

I tried partial hanging but couldn't go through with it, the pain wasn't an issue it was more the discomfort, the wait and the fact that i could back out that made it hard for me to commit to the method. I would try full hanging but my ceiling has nothing to hang from.
Ideally i'd like a method with no pain at all, but seen as that does not exist or isn't within reach, I would prefer something that doesn't have an exit, and that initially doesn't cause pain. For example a pill that kills you 5 mins after you take it, in a way that doesn't look like an obvious suicide.
That's mainly why i'm considering SN, I don't know much about it you'll have to forgive me, i'm new here. but what is Stan's guide?

Hanging and corrotid artery compression seem very difficult, maybe nearly impossible (?), for many people to accomplish while avoiding extreme agony and risking survival with grave injury, possibly comatose.
I don't know a lot about SN, except an antiemetic seems to be a requirement to be successful, and in the US, would require a prescription, making it almost impossible to obtain legally without lying to a physician about migraine headaches or nausea in the hope they will prescribe one. I personally have no confidence I would be successful. Online "pharmacies" that dispense prescription drugs without a prescription seem likely all scams to me, and even if I actually received anything after sending money, I would never be able to trust it without a laboratory analysis confirmation. Even with an antiemetic, I read that some vomit anyway. It seems very risky and uncertain to me.
My preference is a method that isn't illegal, doesn't require lying to obtain materials, isn't difficult to master the technique, doesn't risk survival with grave injury, and doesn't risk prolonged suffering in agony.
