Megathread: Foraging/Wildlife method viable?

[Tinkerthinker55]

With SN starting to be restricted and with euthanizing substances being nigh on impossible to obtain, i think that it would be worthwhile to have a discussion on whether consuming toxic/poisonous Mushrooms or Plants is viable for a CBT. The biggest plus with this method is that it's theoretically impossible to restrict so isn't at the mercy of the government or other agencies, and you could just use freely available sources online to identify poisonous fungi or plants in your area for consumption.

Mushroom Guide

There are roughly 15,000 types of wild fungi in the UK. Our guide aims to help you identify the best to eat and the most important ones not to pick. Never rely on one source for mushroom…

The only issue i can think off is that the naturally occurring poisons/ toxins are probably way more painful and agonising when compared with the synthetic options.

What do you guys think?

You are right, the plant methods will be painful, your body will revolt against it once ingested. By natural design.

There's definitely plenty of poisonous plants in the wilderness. Only downfall at this point is winter is approaching, and they are probably dying off.

As far as painful, I think it depends on what poisonous plant you consume.

You are right, the plant methods will be painful, your body will revolt against it once ingested. By natural design.

So you can't take anything beforehand to lessen the response? It might be painful but it being irreversible once consumed must be a plus right, i mean eating a couple of mushrooms must be easier than chugging down SN.

I really don't know, Tinker. Initially I was toying with deadly night shades as a method for CTB, once I looked deeper into it the idea was of putting. You are right, some plants are irreversible deadly when taken in sufficient quantities, but how much is sufficient? Depends on your body constitution, really. If you get the dose wrong, you may survive with kidney and/or liver damage. If you ask me, don't do it this way. Chose another method, please.

Most have long lingering deaths so certainly not peaceful
