I have no idea. It can't hurt for very long though if you do it right.

By most reports it is painless, but it is important to shoot yourself in the right place (through the mouth with slight upward angle so the round hits the brainstem) don't shoot up through your chin, that's how most people miss and end up blowing off part of their jaw and/or face.

You can google "Giz explains what happens when you get shot in the head" since I don't know if we are allowed to post links and it has a detailed description of the mechanics and why it is painless.

If you do it incorrectly and fail, then yes, you would be in a lot of pain and potentially survive with serious and debilitating injuries. However, like others have said, if done correctly then death would be pretty much guaranteed, instantaneous and painless (you wouldn't even feel anything or hear the gunshot go off as you'll be dead so quickly that you wouldn't be able to process it).

The brain has no pain receptors so no. However, what surrounds it does so you better know where you're aiming at exactly.
