I’m 52 and running out of reasons to keep going. Right now the only one I have is my cat. Once she is gone I will follow not far behind.
From what I have read the helium hood method seems to be the best. It seems like the most fool proof.
Is this the easy way out? Yes. But I don’t see the point of putting myself through more pain. I won’t be missed. I proved that to myself. I don’t want to live to the point that I have to have others taking care of me. So while I can I will take control of when I die.

What?
I too am only staying around for my pets. They are my closest friends. If & when you go, I hope you go in peace.
I can identify with your running out of relationships that give you reason to live. When my husband died, I felt alone in the world except for the pets I had inherited from my husband. My parents had both passed on before. My brother and my husband’s family didn’t really care about me. The way I solved my loss of meaningful relationships was to make new ones. Now I feel needed, because I have made myself needed.
