I'm curious to what methods would work best for obese people like me.

I'm just about 300lbs.

Ideally a gun would be best but I don't have access to that. I thought about hanging but there's nothing strong enough to hold me. The only thing I can think of is carbon monoxide, but how? I don't have a car or garage.

Welcome to the forum. There's the Suicide Resource Compilation. You can read about different methods there incl. carbon monoxide.

Maybe think of partial hanging? I've heard many having success that way.

If hanging were my method, and I weighed 300 lbs, I think I'd be able to find a place that would support me. I know I could buy a rope strong enough to support my weight. I think I would seriously consider beefy tree branches. I think I would definitely research and study all I could about hanging, though, including what knots to make, where/how the rope should be positioned on my neck, what I might expect to experience from hanging, how to test the rope and anchor point to make sure it is strong enough, and any other considerations that would be important. If, after seriously studying all I could about hanging, I still had doubts about its efficacy for myself, then I'd move on to a plan B, maybe CO, and repeat the process. That's how I'd go about it for myself, anyway.

For hanging, finding a good anchor point for you would be easy. Consider the handrail of a bridge near you or a tree. Or, you could go to a park near you and just inspect your surroundings to find something that could hold your weight (sorry I couldn't be more specific with it, I'm doing that on purpose to not make the anchor point(s) too obvious).
Do it at night so that you don't get rescued. A recipe for a successful hanging attempt.
