Diphenhydramine, sold as Benedryl, can cause hallucinations when overdosing. Some people purposefully overdose on Benedryl to hallucinate. "The Hatman" refers to seeing something that looks like a shadowy figure of a person wearing a hat.
Oh i see. Didn't realize that was used recreationally.
FYI: I’ve tried it and it’s not worth it. It’s a very paranoid and anxious high.
I’ve also been told it’s pretty dangerous to use long term, but I don’t remember any of the facts
My wife once got high on the normal adult dose because my god it seems like anything that crosses the blood brain barrier hits her like a freight train.
Anyway she went on a deranged tirade about how wagon wheel pasta created incels. How the mom eating it causes rectal-vaginal fistulas that contaminate the fetus by introducing the letter "I" into their cells (incel = I in cells). She was crying about how we needed to go to change.org and start a petition to ban wagon wheel pasta.
I never hear good things about it. Mostly hallucinations about spiders and bugs in the corners and other very unsettling things. It's basically sleep paralysis
Basically anything that's a circle, or circular looks like a spider, then hatmen high step march everywhere. It's terrible, once was enough.
Do not fuck with benadryl.
Kids called it “triple C’s” where I was from
Wait. I thought triple C's was something else. I think it stands for cough, congestion, cold...? I remember taking a blister pack of 8 pills to get high back in the day. Was that off-brand benadryl?
Coricidin cough and cold, you're looking for the dextromethorphan. It's also a pretty terrible feeling overall.
That sounds right. I remember suppressing nausea and then having an extremely dissociative high for hours and being unable to sleep.
Usually what you're getting from those is pseudoephedrine (Sudafed), which is more a stimulant than a hallucinogen.
Aka a deliriant substance.
