Got an Idea on My Project

By thinking of pre-suicide factors and barriers, I got an idea which is to increase people's fear about death.

I am thinking if we can get rid of all the quick and 'comfortable' suicide ways/methods, and make suicide tools look more terrible and inefficient to kill people, then when suicidal people exploring which method of suicide can kill themselves fast and less painful, but the answer will be: none.

I mean just like the coal gas way, when people cannot find a proper way to commit suicide, they might be give up to do it. Besides, those tools/equipments not only cannot kill people successfully but also make suicidal people is afraid of using them, so from the psychological angel, people might believe if they commit suicide, they will be suffered huge pains and probably fail to kill themselves, that means, their life will be more miserable than before.

So my research question might be:
a. How can design create great barrier towards suicide?
b. How can design combines with psychological methods to increase suicidal people's fear of death?
