What kind of option is that? If I say you have the option of working in my gold mine for no pay for 18 hours a day and I'll feed you gruel twice a day and flog you if you don't work as hard as I want but hey here's a gun with one bullet so if you don't like it you have the option of killing yourself, is that a reasonable choice that amounts to consent if you're too terrified to kill yourself?
