I started to look into 'partial' as an alternative to inert gas. It sounds like survival instinct can be overwhelming before losing consciousness, potential for serious mental or bodily discomfort.

First of all, prepare the actual rope setup. Make sure everything is sturdy, test the weight, etc.

Then I would take a few bars of alprazolam ( I think I have 2 or 3 stashed away.) These will probably begin to kick in by 20 minutes.

Then I would get into position, put it around my neck. At this point, start inhaling the nitrous. I can usually manage to clear 3 of the small 8g whippit cartridges (via a cream dispenser) before everything starts to go black (and it feels great). Obviously it is better not to breathe any air during this time. When I start to pass out from the nitrous, I will have already deprived my brain of oxygen for ~60 seconds.

The idea is hopefully to work as a shortcut to loss-of-consciousness, the nitrous will put your mind and body into an extremely dissociated hypoxic state, combined with the alprazolam, used to alleviate psychological distress and physiological survival reflexes that otherwise present major obstacles with this method.

I am very familiar with both of the substances used, and the way my body reacts to them. This is prerequisite, and the reason I wouldn't use alcohol even though it is readily available. It only requires the use of small, non-fatal quantities, so you can still easily change your mind after taking them, if you want to. For me, though, this is the only way I'd currently be able to consider using this method.

What are some of the potential pros and cons, or how might this method be improved?

I don't suggest anyone try this themselves, as it has never been tested.

I guess alcohol could make it easier, and maybe sleeping pills(benzo) would make you fall uncontious and fall from chair already unconscious.
