I have seen cases where people grossly disfigured themselves attempting suicide with firearms and lived. One had no face. Jus a small hole where his mouth had been a hole where his nose had been and no eyes. Just skin grafted over the mess. He used a shotgun under his chin. Horrifying. People have preferences. It all depends on what is driving them to take such action. All of those methods take time.....getting drugs requires an illegal purchase (not easy). Asphyxiation creates panic (as in drowning, remember water boarding?). I think a slow decrease in oxygen may not be detected and the victim will fall unconscious and then die.....it can happen relatively rapidly, I am familiar with several cases. Carbon monoxide, I read, paralyzes first and the victim may want to change his mind and can't.... It was Dr. Kavorkian's preferred method for his last cases... A gun shot is quick and painless, but very messy....but still not 100% guaranteed... I have personally known more than a few suicides...
