Topic: Stupid Ass Question

Just Wondering started this discussion 12 years ago #34,524

A friend of mine is stupid, and suicidal. He wants to commit suicide, but wants it painless. And someone convinced him to crush a shit load of aspirin, and rub it into his skin, therefore, once going into the skin and into the blood stream, can cause overdose, or toxic poison in his blood. Is this even possible?

uh i don't think so that doesn't sound like something a suicidal person would even do 'ah I'm gonna spend hours crushing up this aspirin and putting it over my body can't wait for this sweet aspirin coated relief'
also i don't think that would even work no

How to Make Aspirin from a Willow Tree

how to make a crude form of aspirin from the bark of a willow tree. It is a great remedy for headaches, hangovers, and other minor pain. The use of the willow tree as a mild pain reliever goes back to the Native Americans, who used it in much the same way that I do.

Before we go any further, I am going to explain what we are making and how it differs from commercial aspirin. Commercial aspirin is a chemical called acetylsalicylic acid (say that one three times fast!). What we will be making is simply an herbal tea that contains salicylic acid, which is the raw material from which acetylsalicylic acid is made.

So, why do they convert it from the raw salicylic acid into the commercial form? Two reasons:

It increases the shelf life of the medicine.
Salicylic acid becomes dangerous to use if you concentrate it.

Pharmaceutical companies are not happy with just picking a leaf or cutting some bark from a tree...they like to concentrate everything and make it as potent as they can. If you do this with salicylic acid, it can cause stomach bleeding. But, as long as you use it in a natural, unconcentrated form (like the willow-bark tea we are going to make), it is perfectly safe. I have used it for years with no ill affects whatsoever.

Now, at this point, I would break off some of the leaves and smell them. This is because I have used this plant for many years and I know its smell very well. You, however, do not know the smell that we are looking for. So, here's what I want you to do:

Grab a handful of leaves, crush them up some, and smell them. I don't just mean take a quick sniff, I mean really take your time and make yourself familiar with that smell.
Take pictures of the tree, and take some of its leaves with you.

Once you have done this, you are ready to verify the identity of your tree. The best way is simply to take your pictures and your samples to a professor of botany. If there is a university in your area, this should be no problem. If not, you can always email your pictures to the nearest one. If you are new to the study of plants, do not neglect this step. As I said before, ingesting random plants is a good way to die.

Once you have gotten a positive ID from an expert, you should be able to identify willow trees yourself from then on. Remember the smell particularly, as this is the best way I have found to identify a willow tree, even in winter when the leaves are gone.
Step 2: Cut a Square of Bark

Once you are absolutely sure that you have found a Willow tree, you are ready to harvest the bark. Like all trees, the willow has an outer bark and an inner bark. The inner bark is what we want.

So, get a good sharp knife out and cut a square into the tree:

Yea my reply was under/over/reach/

Anon C did not consider that moisture on skin wood turn the solid aspirin into what wood be absorbed by skin. However NO FUCKING Way wood that end up as toxic.

I had to look up oral overload of Aspirin and it turns out
Acute overdose has a mortality rate of 2%. Chronic overdose is more commonly lethal with a mortality rate of 25%

So its the long term damage of organs over tyme with Aspirin thats not so good.

All that said if one were to climb to top of a Magnificent Willow Tree one might find the ground sooner then later.

Only because of most recent episode of Cosmos, I looked up Tetraethyllead. Lead in this form can be absorbed by skin. I looked up rubbing lead on skin and only a minute amount is absorbed.

Some things are not so intuitive. I took a LOT of Chemistry for my Engineering degree (Electronics) more then usually cause it was a hobby as kiddlet when I was making bombs n rockets.

So when they said Lead Crystal leached lead into fluids I said WTF? Did not believe it until I read the proof.

not really, placing a powder into solution would make it penetrate skin better, but not significantly, otherwise youd be sick 24/7.

the large majority of it would stay in the skin layer.

Advise him to do this, because it won't actually work. Hopefully after surviving this "suicide attempt" he will reconsider and get better.
