All mushrooms are not edible ( Etable).
Some are deadly poisonous .
Purchase edible varieties from the market and be at ease.
Do not experiment.
usually edible mushrooms are white or drab in color.
Poisonous are colored attractively. But do not go by this.
Go to the market .
Many of the varieties of mushrooms that are sold in local supermarkets, have been commercially grown on mushroom farms.
These mushrooms are safe to eat because they are grown in controlled, sterilized environments.
Some of the varieties that are grown commercially include: whites, crimini, portabello, shiitake, oyster and enoki.

No, some of them are way poisonous.
If you want to harvest wild mushrooms safely, go buy yourself a field guide for your geographical area.
