I just found out that Amazon sells apricot kernels. When did stores start to carry edible poison in higher doses? Then again, stores can sell alcohol which can become toxic in high amounts. I am so tempted to buy some and eat the entire bag. Painful way to die be damned… I notice now I hate living so much!

I don’t think you’ll be able to k yourself on eating these. i did go on amazon and clicked on the first bag i saw, and read the reviews. Looks like lots of customers have bought and eaten them raw. granted, you’re only supposed to eat a small amount of them, otherwise you ‘can’ get a stomach ache.
Also, reading Quora, seems like many ppl have eaten them and they’re all fine too. It seems like it’s one of those things that CAN kill out theoretically, but in reality, most ppl just wind up with a stomachache. I mean, ppl HAVE died just drinking water. So literally anything can kill you, but realistically, i don’t think it’s that easy.
You can certainly try some and let us know how it goes. I feel like at most you’ll feel a little sick with a stomach ache and that’s that. If it was really deadly, Amazon wouldn’t be allowed to sell them.
Methinks this is just another urban legend.

Google quora + how many apricot kernels are safe to eat and you’ll find many comments from ppl saying they’ve eaten them and they were all fine.
I’m pretty sure all of the comments were from people who ate safe amount of doses, though. Meaning at most, they ate like 10 kernels. I don’t think any of them ate over 1,500 kernels as fast as they could. Considering a recommended serving size is 3 kernels, I would need to eat two days worth of calories in one sitting…
It is scary how self-destructive a depressed mind can be, isn’t it, darkness?
go try to eat 1500 kernels. your jaw is gonna hurt before you can consume even a fraction of that. have you eaten almonds? i love almonds but after so many almonds, your jaw hurts. mine does. by like maybe 30-50 almonds, let alone thousand+.
you can sure go try it and tell us how it went, how many you can consume before jaw hurts, bc it’s too hard to eat enough for it to be fatal.
like even with alcohol poisoning, which btw, goes into the blood-brain barrier MUCH quicker bc it’s a liquid- even then most ppl just get really sick/puke/or sleep it off. yes, a portion of ppl die, those who attempt via alcohol, but 9 times out of 10, your body will just puke it up before it kills you.
and that’s liquid. when you’re dealing with a solid- it takes too long to digest. and your body will likely puke it out before most of it even leaves your stomach. that’s how the body deals with poisons.
i’m not saying it’s not possible. just…it’s not easy trying to k oneself.
but hey, if you’re determined, i’m not going to stop you. if you do attempt and happen to survive, please do come back and tell us how many you’re able to consume before your jaw hurts or it gets puked up. the sad thing is that bc sui is so “taboo,” no one is allowed to talk about it. and then many ppl repeat the same failed tactics bc we don’t know the proper amount or dosage.
actually, some of the commenters did eat quite a lot. in other cultures, they eat this stuff, so it’s “normal” for them, unlike here, where we don’t eat them and can’t handle more than a few pieces. i’m sure they’ve built up a tolerance though. one guy said he ate 100mg out of a 500 mg bag (idk how much almonds that is) and dude is like “i don’t feel anything.”
