"Mushrooms are similar to LSD in the fact that they cause people to hallucinate, and like LSD a person can die the first time they use these poisonous
mushrooms, especially in the condition that they were in here," said Murfreesboro Police spokesman Kyle Evans. "Being baked into chocolate makes it a
lot easier to consume more than is needed for the high in a short amount of time and can lead to overdose."?
holy misinformation.. hallucinate? when?................... .weellll felt like I died....ummmmmmmmmmm huh? did he say Baked? into chocolates ?yum! overdose? not one recorded in history, not on shrooms, anyway Next stop Hallucination Station.... |

unfortunately the media tends to be the leading cause of misinformation about the sacred mushrooms. most of the "poisinings" that occur with
mushrooms happen because people consume mushrooms that are improperly identified. psilocybin, the active ingredient we enjoy in magic mushrooms, is not found
in the anamita muscari mushrooms. the amanita is, however, the mushroom one sees most often depicted in pictures that refer to magic mushrooms and this leads
to much confusion. the amanita species contain ibotenic acid, an active alkoloid completely different than the the much safer psilocybin varieties(ie:liberty
caps, cubensis, cyans). hope this helps clear up some confusion surrounding the gifts the earth provides us to enjoy safely. peace.

Overdose on Mushrooms ...yes...I have witnessed the horror of someone overdosing on Mushrooms...Their brain or their psyche could not handle the drug. I
visited them in the hospital. They have have never done another drug since..even had to stop smoking herb. I have several friends who cannot injest them as
their body physically rejects them....which part of the mushroom they are allergic too is uncertain but the fact remains they are allergic to them.
Dying from mushrooms I am not so sure about. But I do know people who can die from peanuts or a mold that exists on the peanut, soybeans, other nuts, etc. So I can guess that if one has an allergy to mushrooms they might die form anaphylactic shock if not treated immediately. The point to me is that one person's pleasure may be another person's poison. We all have to make informed decisions about what we put in our bodies. I believe it is our choice to make. Just as it would be ridiculous to outlaw all the foods people are allergic too, it is archaic, draconian and selfish to have done it to mushrooms. Like everything else, you may enjoy them, you may be allergic to them or they may just not be your cup of tea. |

Depends on your definition of " overdose " , overdose maening death , no , i have never heard of that.
Overdose as in the person was in phsychic and physical hell , yes , unfortunately i and many others have witnessed that. A quasi funny story , i had a friend at a show many years ago , who was way over his limit on L and was not doing well , just barely holding things together. I went off to babysit someone else , and came back to him with a near pollished off bag of fungus in his hand. He told me he was really hungry and thought if he had something to eat it would bring him down a bit....... |
