how to psyche yourself up to eat wild shrooms

so the g. luteus ive been finding is just starting to pin, theres dozens and dozens of pins and a big little guy that the viel is just about to break on. these look better than they ever have, pristine specimins, theyre of a better quality than ive ever found them, and because i found them pinning, i can get them before they get too old.
ive been finding these mushrooms for the last 4 years, and have not eaten any. i do not think the risk of poisoning outweighs the benefit of tripping, so ive been "responsible" and just photographed them this whole time.
at the same time, after finding them for the last four years and spending countless hours researching them, i know beyond any doubt that they are in fact g. luteus, and are not physically toxic.
ive never eaten any wild shrooms before, edible or otherwise, just the idea of it sounds like a really bad decision.
i cant be the only one thats been hesitant to ingest a wild fungus, i guess im looking for advice from people that been in a similar position that ended up taking the potentially fatal plunge and has eaten them.
at this point, i can 100% identify them by their smell alone. i could be blindfolded, i dont even have to look at them, and their fruity, perfumey odor gives them away instantly, they really smell unique.
ive recieved positive i.d.'s from trusted identifiers on here several times over the years and am still apprehensive about this.
whats pinning now just looks like its a way higher quality than ive ever seen, i mean really picture perfect shrooms. i was ready to just eat them in the woods today but still didnt.
anyone? how did you get yourself to make a potentially fatal decision? better safe than sorry man

If you don't feel comfortable with consuming mushrooms, then don't do it.
I have never been nervous about eating any mushrooms though, even the numerous Amanita species I have consumed, just do proper research and you'll be OK.
But don't ever be in a rush to trip, and eat something just because it's there and you want to trip, keep your head about yourself and you'll be OK.

I'd prefer to eat a healthy outdoor specimen from an inside grow any day. Your approach is right you need to be 100 percent sure of what your taking before consumption. After that just use your senses if it looks ok smells ok and tastes ok it is. I don't but some do wash their shrooms before fresh consumption to make sure there are no creepy crawlies attached if you dehydrate before eating there is no need ime.

Even if trusted identifiers have told you what it was, you can be extra careful by eating only a small piece of the mushroom first (after being cooked, of course). Wait a few hours or days (depending on the species. Look up how long it would take for a poisonous look-alike to cause illness). If no symptoms appear, that's a good sign. It's still not definitive though (as I found out the hard way!). Instead of using that test to have a go at as much as you want, I would recommend following that test up with another one, this time with a larger sample. Keep repeating and increasing the sample size until you are fully confident that the mushroom is having no ill effect on you. That's probably what I'm going to be doing from now on, anyway.

Yes it would seem he did. He also did not wait for a TI for confirmation.

I never eat anything I'm not %100 on. Neither should you. That said, I eat a lot of wild mushrooms.

I have picked and eaten wild pan cincts. For the first time this year, with id help from this forum.
I'd say the number one thing about eating them is not to be at a point where you are wondering what your eating, and know 100% with confidence what you are eating. Admittedly on my second dose after they were dried out I second guessed myself and wound up paranoid through a lot of the trip about poisoning. So I understand your concern.
Also if you have ever purchased shrooms as I did about 9 years ago the truth was I didn't know anymore than taking the persons word on what they were. So to a certain extent I have done better research on my own.
That said I'm not saying do it, or not. I'm saying do your research and if you eat it you shouldn't be wondering what your eating.
Pan cincts are fairly distinct and not much poisonous seems to look like it, if your variety has identical twins that are deadly id be far more nervous.

I agree that if you are not comfortable tripping, don't.
If the only issue is lingering reluctance from having known all your life not to eat wild mushrooms, then I support Kryptid's approach of taking a small amount at first and waiting a few hours or days before doing it again with a larger piece, no larger each time than you are comfortable with. This is what I did at first, and it worked out quite well for me.
I can also tell you from experience that even low doses of psilocybin mushrooms can potentially give you a mild stoned feeling, mild stomach upset, minor bodily sensations like your limbs feeling a little heavy, and/or subtle changes in perception and motor coordination, so don't mistake such effects for poisoning.
