Hi, guys. I'm still not going yet since I'm still slaving away for a good urn and a heartfelt funeral by the beach but I want to ask y'all a question. I have no background in chemistry at all but I've learned enough what types of salts can do to you. I lost my partner to SN and that sort of makes me wonder just what other types of salts can I easily acquire and use to CBT. I've googled how baking soda can actually kill and I saw a thread where a person tried mixing in baking soda and citric acid to create CO2 for inhalation.

I happened to fuck up my velveting technique today and started feeling funny (floaty feeling) after eating the meat I've doused in baking soda (I've rinsed it and still). If I use enough, do you think I can keel over? Is ingesting baking soda like ingesting SN (per the formula posted here), going to work? Are the symptoms going to be that same?

Thought I'd look for easy and cheap ways to enter the quiet night.

defo feel like we'd have found out by now if it was that dangerous, but who knows

I guess that if no one has tried it, it probably lacks the efficacy I thought of. That, or most people who have caught the bus here are not from STEM or do not harbor that much interest in chemistry.

if it was that dangerous it wouldnt be easily acessible, and it is made from kitchen salt actually so i highly doubt it can be lethal in not insane quantites

Hello, local, too-lazy-to-write-entire-paragraphs-right-now chemist here, I have some things to say about this.

Baking salt is an intentionally watered down salt, and definitely one of the safer salts out there to overdose on. Sure, baking soda can still dry you out, poison you, etc etc, but it is, unfortunately, very survivable. Of course, you can still OD on it, but you're probably going to need a lot of baking soda, and nobody to immediately help you...

Oh damn! Hi there! Thank you for responding. This sucks to hear but I guess this just makes SN more tempting. I just came across a thread about using kratom and another one about using benzos. So many methods and I guess that the cheapest, most acquirable one is not available. I'll just bake cakes with it then.

Kratom and benzos are far more suitable methods to CTB with. Baking soda though... Yeah...too much suffering, too far fetched to work.

I once took a little too much baking soda to treat heartburn and it gave me the runs so bad, lol. It was like a waterfall coming out of me! I looked it up and read that too much baking soda will do that. I probably drank about 2-3 tablespoons in a glass of water, when I typically use maybe 1 tablespoon. So I would definitely not recommend trying to ingest a large amount..

I think the baking soda and citric acid method is for CO deprivation and not OD'ing

I don't even understand how this would work chemically if it weren't watered down. I don't understand a formula that would result in a harmful compound.

I'm not sure if I'm interpreting the question correctly, but the way salt poisoning works is that it takes water and makes your bloodstream heavier slowly dehydrating you and making your system more sluggish until it eventually, fails.

i'm not sure that's how SN works, Sodium nitrite is commonly used in food preservation and in treating cyanide toxicity. It is a powerful oxidative agent, which oxidises haemoglobin to methaemoglobin, reducing oxygen carrying capacity of erythrocytes and causing tissue hypoxia. It becomes NO2 and that's how it does damage, right?

Baking soda is NaCHO3, there's no N for the NO2, so I'm not understanding

For what I know, SN works the way you said but without the NO2 part. It's not the toxicity of NO2, it's the lack of oxygen that kills eventually.
Na compounds drain out water from the body so blood can't flow and provide oxygen.
Either way, the damage is done by depriving O2 distribution from the body.

Baking soda is essentially non-toxic making impossible to CTB with it. It bears no chemical relation to SN or KN.
