Lots of people die in their sleep of natural causes. But do you mean is it possible deliberately to die during sleep?

Not easy, since when a healthy body is experiencing something that would shut it down, it will usually wake up to try to stop it.

You could build a machine that monitors your sleep and releases CO after you fall asleep.

The Scottish developed the myth of the Succubus to explain why men so frequently died in their sleep. So yes, it's possible. :smiling:

As for methods, the most typical would be to overdose on barbiturates, such as nembutal, with a bag over your head.

Falling asleep and never waking up certainly sounds so incredibly ideal, but if just choosing to pass away in our sleep was an available suicide method I doubt that this forum would even exist.

You don't need barbituates for this method. Benzos or Ambien will do the job fine.

Just put a co machine on a timer after sleep aid.

What can be sweeter than to die in your sleep? I can only hope that when my time is up, I will be granted such mercy.

I honestly don't know if there's a way to do that. Closest thing I can think of would be N, but that's pretty much impossible to get. Best thing would be going unconscious and hoping for the best.

Most methods for ctb tht are not violent will send you unconscious before killing you, so in that sense you would "die in your sleep". But, if I understand you correctly, you are talking about something else: setting up some kind of arrangement, then going to sleep in the normal way, and having your arrangement subsequently kill you. I would say thiat it is possible to do that, but difficult. But it seems un-necessarily complicated to me, and if your equipment doesn't function quite as expected you won't be able to adjust it because you will be asleep. I would prefer a simpler method.
