To avoid the risk of failure and rendering yourself a disfigured invalid, you should acquire helium or nitrogen from a welding shop to do the deed by inert gas asphyxiation. You would also need a cheap regulator to control the flow (available from most hardware stores), a tube to direct the flow, and a plastic bag to contain the gas while you breathe it. Inert gas asphyxiation is painless -- it's just like falling asleep. Helium and Nitrogen are not only chemically inert but also physiologically inert. They have no taste or odor and do not trigger the hypercapnic response as happens with suffocation or CO/CO2 poisoning. Another advantage is this leaves your body intact and presentable for your survivors.

What a disgusting piece of "advice" to give to someone.

Everyone has the right to end his life when he sees fit. Sharing knowledge of how to do so safely is the opposite of disgusting. To encounter someone who intends to end his life in a risky manner that could lead to lifelong disability and extraneous trauma for his loved ones and not share knowledge of a safer and more certain method is what would be disgusting.
