it has a 5mm diameter. but does it even matter if i'll die anyway? and if so can i just put a towel between my neck?

Usually suggested is around 10mm rope. Rope that is too thin may cut into the neck, while putting a towel or other padding between the neck and rope will reduce the amount of pressure applied (this of course depends on how much padding). Suicide Wiki warns against the use of padding for this reason.

I personally would not recommend it, since cutting into the neck would leave clear evidence of an attempt in case you fail.
