Method Licorice overdose - a sweet way to ctb.

[Lara Francis]

I have just been laying in bed stuffing my face with Licorice gums feeling so pissed off with life and it dawned on me that I had heard eating too much could be dangerous, What a result !
I could easily eat way too much and research suggests that in people over 40 eating as little as 57g a day for 2 weeks can lead to dangerously high blood pressure and extremely low potassium.
I am not sure how long you would take to die providing medical assistance was not requested or the severity of pain involved.!..

LOL

There was a thread here a little while back discussing things like death by candy corn, and death by chocolate. It was comedic, and chaffed by a few who found it distracting from more serious threads of advice and exploration, but I don't think the gallows humor is amiss.

The dose makes the poison. You can die by an overdose of anything, even your favorite comfort food. How unjust that as fragile as life is we have such difficulty bringing it to an end by pleasant means.

I don't think you can die by anything. That's a big lie. It isn't true. Joking around frees up your mind and gets you out of the ruts you fall into when you're searching for a method.

You can die from too many bananas too

[Johnnythefox]

Yep! You can overdose on just about everything.

 

[JazzyWolfWhistle]

Okay, according to their theory you can, but in real life you can't. If you could more of us would be dead.

In theory you can but the human capacity makes it nearly impossible so you are right.

Why not just go with apple seeds for cyanide poisoning?

Dying from overindulgence of a certain food isn't really reliable nor pleasant. I'd imagine your survival instincts will either stop you before you reach LD50 of whatever you are consuming, or your body will find a way to reject whatever you have just consumed, usually via vomiting and what not. The worst part is that during all of this, you will either be unbearably uncomfortable, or in a lot of discomfort and pain.

The idea does sound entertaining, nonetheless.

Yum. I posted about legal dose of sugar a while back. 'Tis a sweet way to die... if you can stomach it... :)

If it was that easy to OD on stuff like that, I would've died from drinking too much coffee years ago.

(Apparently it's possible, I know, but you would basically have to force yourself to drink it nonstop since your body basically pisses most of it out in no time.)

 

[Ampsvx123]

Candies are but a fraction of the essence of the roots, you would die by the sugar before you die from the licorice. I used to drink licorice tea for its benefits, it's very easy to have an heart attack from it, I stopped because of the terrible pain it once gave me. Heart attacks while fully conscious is never the way to go.

Well my friend always tells this story about how her grandma ate like 5 bananas and ended up in hospital. Which isnt that much. Apparently 200 kill you but 5 still had a bad effect on her

Whats the lethal amount of coca cola one can injest? That too would be a delicious way to go out. I love coke!

What website is that?

 

[TiredHorse]

I think the belching would kill me before the soda itself could do the job.

Or maybe the pain from my teeth corroding out of my head...

Yeah, 354 cans is way too much even for someone like me who can easily drink coke like it's water. The only thing stopping me from doing just that is fear of diabetes and kidney stones.

Those are reasonable fears. I woke up to a kidney stone on my 45th birthday and spent the morning in the ER. I'd never imagined such pain. Happy fucking birthday.

Thanks, but I'll stick with eb/N2. Even SN has to be more pleasant than a kidney stone.
