Wondering because I'm running out of options. It sounds lie a horrible way to die and it definitely wouldn't be my first choice but I need to die soon and I'm getting desperate.

I'm not sure how much pain is involved in drowning. From what I've read there is panic and then once you actually take that underwater breath it becomes peaceful. I scuba dive and did a lot of research.

I hope so. I heard that it feels like being burned from the inside and that the panic is horrible.

Are you aiming to make yourself unconscious/barely conscious? Yes, it's been done before successfully. It staves off the panic, the body really isn't good about waking you up as you inhale water, provided you're blacked out enough. Any body of water located near a bar tends to attract drunks who fall "overboard" and go out without much of a fight.

That being said, if this truly is your method, depth and proximity to a rescue site maybe an issue, going without oxygen can obviously cause brain damage and you wouldn't want to get revived with 3 brain cells left because the waves took you back to shore.

Good point. I hadn't thought about that. I will have to think carefully about where I do it. That's if I can get the nerve to attempt it

IDK why many people here care about panic of non-suicidal drowning victims who were faced with the apparent high risk of impending death while desperately wanting to live. As if the same victims would not panic if you threaten them with a shotgun aimed at their head, promising painless death in a split second.

Good remark I think ! But, feel the water enter in your lungs might be very uncomfortable.

Maybe, take a diving tuba and set it in the floor direction, attach a plastic tube connected to a helium tank. Then enter in the water with some weight. Open the valve. Inhale helium and you will blackout in the seconds then drowning without feel anything I think.
.
You can also use nitrogen or hilarious gas.

Gas flow should be carefully regulated then, so that inhaling could be done comfortably and there would be no excessive pressure that might cause pulmonary barotrauma.

My idea is to open valve without inhale anything. So the gas stay in the tuba. Then close the valve and inhale gas.
Step by step, it can work I think.
And also, expirate by the noose.

What do you mean by tuba? I needed to inhale approximately 4 liters of nitrous to pass out, and some people here failed to achieve unconsciousness with this amount of gas, they needed more of it to succeed at complete fainting.
