Living is already too much effort. I think I'd need to find a purpose in my life before I could scrounge up the energy to build a death chair.

Some similar things have been done but with the purpose of absolute effectivity, see pic related. To me it seems like you are agonizing over the idea of suicide but can't really decide so you have this weird overcomplicated thoughts. Of course there's ways of suicide by others, in the US, suicide by cop.

I understand the psychology beyond it. I'm somehow there too, in my case I don't like the idea of dying before my mother, also I spend my time thinking about how to leave things in order, the inheritance, the funeral, the contracts and shit I'll leave unattended. At least the method seems relatively clear to me, I don't tend to fantasize about complicated ways to go, just get your inert gas of choice and a proper place. Overall, tricks of the mind and it sucks, it's like a long slow disease that doesn't even bother to kill you properly.

This seems overcomplicated, and the more parts you have the more likely something will break or go wrong.

Seems like someone actually went ahead with the suicide machine idea: https://www.swissinfo.ch/eng/sci-tech/sarco-suicide-capsule--passes-legal-review--in-switzerland/46966510

>It’s a 3-D printed capsule, activated from the inside by the person intending to die. The machine can be towed anywhere for the death. It can be in an idyllic outdoor setting or in the premises of an assisted suicide organisation, for example.

>The person will get into the capsule and lie down. It’s very comfortable. They will be asked a number of questions and when they have answered, they may press the button inside the capsule activating the mechanism in their own time.

>The capsule is sitting on a piece of equipment that will flood the interior with nitrogen, rapidly reducing the oxygen level to 1 per cent from 21 per cent in about 30 seconds. The person will feel a little disoriented and may feel slightly euphoric before they lose consciousness. Death takes place through hypoxia and hypocapnia, oxygen and carbon dioxide deprivation, respectively. There is no panic, no choking feeling.

That's an interesting idea OP. A few years ago when I was at my absolute lowest I thought a lot about building a similar device that bypassed the instinctual fear of pulling the trigger, lever, button, etc. I concluded, at least in my humble opinion and given that I live in a no-guns country, that the best option was building a guillotine. The blade drop would be controlled by a simple arduino-like device with a programmed 1 in 1000 (or really whatever you feel like, like say 1 in 6 to emulate russian roulette) chances of randomly activating 15 minutes after the user lets go of a spring actuated lever connected to the arduino thingy. The 15 minute gap is to make sure the user is asleep and didn't let go of the lever by accident. This way you could go to sleep everyday and know there is a 1 in 1M chances of never waking up, or 1 in 6 or however risky you feel like. Provided you can sleep comfortably with your neck and head in a firmly fixed possition to prevent accidents of course. If you are absolutely committed to it you can simply make it a 1 in 2, or 1 in 1 chance. That takes balls to do, so another thing I thought of was get shitfaced as hard as possible before going for eternal sleep. You'd pass out and release the lever before you could realize it.

It's not really that different from your idea though. Mine just adds a sleep/unconsciousness factor to it. If you have free access to guns you can swap the guillotine for shotguns, same principle and 100% painless and effective.

Wouldn't it be better to have it go off following a sequence of 30 min - 3 hour - 4 hour? I think 15 min may not be enough time to sleep if you consider the suicidee may be too much nervous or feeling uncomfortable due to the fact that he's sleeping in a killing machine.

>>26974
Probably right. There are wearable sleep trackers that can tell what stage of the sleep cycle you are in, so you can improve the idea even further by programming it so it goes off during your deepest sleep instead of during REM when you might be ironically having a nightmare about dying. One of the most peaceful ways to die I think.

>>26978
I thought rem was the deepest stage of sleep

>>26979
No I was wrong, it's the lightest but it happens last in each sleep cycle.

>>26979
who's rem?

>>26967
I wish I could simply order one of these from Amazon or something. Getting it printed and assembling it myself seems like such a hassle. And it's pretty expensive.

>>27031
>order from Amazon
You'd end up ordering a shitty Chinese knockoff design that makes you crippled instead. These things aren't single use though, so ideally some forward-thinking 3rd world country would buy a bunch and become a suicide tourist spot.

>Rem is one of the twin maids working for Roswaal L Mathers. She tends to speak in a superficially polite manner and sometimes acts without thinking. She holds both worshipping respect and guilt toward her sister for an incident in the past; because of this, Rem tends to think of herself as inferior.
