Anon abuses benadryl : greentext

[-] southsamurai@sh.itjust.works 97 points 2 weeks ago

I accidentally did.

Back in jr high, I was sick as hell and helped myself to Benadryl.

Thought I was taking them as directed, over a period of days. Nope. Was taking them every hour or two for part of the morning and into the afternoon. Luckily, not a lethal dose or anything.

But I was seeing some shit!

The walls were breathing, the floor had waves, and he-man came out of my TV on battlecat to talk to me. My GI Joes had a fight with COBRA, and I vaguely remember talking to Spider-Man as I was drifting off at one point.

If you're looking for over the counter tripping drugs I'm going to referr you to Delsym. It's a cough medicine that's orange flavored (not like cherry robotussin bleh) and it doesn't have the antihistamine drugs that fuck up your kidneys. Check the box yourself if you dont believe me. The tripping drug is dextromethrohydrogen or something like that, its been a decade or so since I last used it. Trip lasts 6+ hours.

LSD and even shrooms feels better, but if ya don't have access you dont have access.

Ive used benadryl and anti motion sickness pills (dramamine) and more to get high. Delsym straight up fucking works the best and it doesn't fry you out as hard as the other stuff. You might get nauseated after drinking but it passes, but if you puke I have heard it makes you trip harder.

The shit you learn when you are a dork in the south with no weed hookup....

Now playing Modest Mouse - Dramamine

Thanks, but I'm the exact type of person who shouldn't take psychedelic drugs. For myself and the safety of others. Though I do find it quite fascinating.

[-] UltraGiGaGigantic@lemmy.ml 1 points 4 days ago

Your body, your choice.

[-] prettybunnys@sh.itjust.works 19 points 2 weeks ago

Not without fucking your kidneys up!

[-] ulterno@programming.dev 8 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago)

Yeah, just stay awake long and overwork your brain (preferable with stuff you like, or you'll fail to stay awake long enough).
You reach a point where you feel mentally tired, unable to concentrate well but unable to sleep because it is conflicting with your Carcadian rhythm. At that time, you can get to a relatively darker place, watch/read/think of whatever you want to hallucinate and it might work.

Make sure not to be sedentary during the whole exercise or you will require much more effort with much less effect.

Doing this alongside fasting, helps (makes you stay awake more).

At the end of it, your day and night cycle will be destroyed and you will have to restore it over time.

Oh and don't drive

Benadryl! Because you can't have allergies if you're unconscious.

[-] toynbee@lemmy.world 30 points 2 weeks ago

At my first IT job, we had to attend a week or two of training before actually doing the job. I was eighteen at the time and didn't know nothin' about nothin' ... Including that benadryl makes you sleepy.

Sometime in the first few days of training, I was having some pretty bad allergies and a roommate suggested benadryl. I picked some up on the drive to work and took the recommended dose immediately, then headed into the training, which was nothing but lecturing for a full eight hours on the second floor of a building with a broken AC. Also in the small room were about 20-25 people and a 2005-era projector in the middle of the room.

I doubt I learned anything other than the side effects of benadryl that day. I'm fortunate that I did manage to stay conscious and that the drowsiness had probably worn off before my ninety minute drive home.

Haven't taken any since.

[-] Flax_vert@feddit.uk 4 points 2 weeks ago

What is the recommended dose

[-] toynbee@lemmy.world 4 points 2 weeks ago

I don't know - I haven't had any in almost twenty years. I just took what it said on the box at the time.

[-] lessthanluigi@lemmy.sdf.org 4 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago)

25mg, aka one pill. Every 6 hours

better not owe money to the hat-man when you take benadryl

[-] tromars@feddit.org 32 points 2 weeks ago

The hatman does NOT respect gender pronouns past 450mg

[-] baldingpudenda@lemmy.world 5 points 2 weeks ago

I was gonna ask if this is the one ppl abuse to hallucinate a guy. The stories I've read, no thank you. I Wanna do shrooms, but with my anxiety, I need a real good head space to even try a low dose.

[-] AngryCommieKender@lemmy.world 6 points 2 weeks ago

I've done shrooms, LSD, and 2CT-7. Shrooms are chill. Even once you hallucinate, it's just like breathing walls, and the floor moving weird. I've never seen something that wasn't there on shrooms. Sure, shit that is there looks weird as fuck, but you're more likely to laugh your ass off than anything else. Pretty sure that's why they are starting to recommend micro dosing for depression and anxiety.

I wouldn't recommend 2CT-7 to anyone that isn't experienced with both shrooms and acid. Acid is intense as fuck, and can go all over the place if you aren't in the right headspace.

[-] UltraGiGaGigantic@lemmy.ml 2 points 4 days ago

Acid feels cleaner to me and is a more balanced trip then shrooms. Shrooms fuck up my stomach and i have a crazy peak that tapers off instead of a constant high.

It's so fucking hard to get good acid. Fuck the drug war.

I think you may be on to something.

[-] MightBeFluffy@pawb.social 24 points 2 weeks ago

Fucked up and took too much Benadryl one time. Hallucinated spiders crawling all over me. After that, I swore to never touch the stuff again

[-] Ibuthyr@lemmy.wtf 9 points 2 weeks ago

The fuck kind of medicine do you guys get over the counter? I have a strong feeling these things are either completely banned in the EU or only available with a slip from the doctor. I'm also fascinated by how Americans don't seem to question these things. The amount of Americans that straight up take narcotics before stepping on a plane is wild.

[-] shalafi@lemmy.world 21 points 2 weeks ago

You could torture me with diphenhydramine. I have restless leg syndrome, bad, take drugs to sleep every night. Women who have slept with me when I missed a pill made damned sure I had one. One gf almost sent me home when I joked about forgetting it. It would have been the couch for sure. Hell, it even gets into my arms when it's bad.

Imagine twitching from the waist down, paralyzed with fatigue from the waist up, screaming to pass out but your legs are doing the Charleston.

[-] acockworkorange@mander.xyz 20 points 2 weeks ago

700 mg would be 28 pills. Good heavens!

[-] RBWells@lemmy.world 16 points 2 weeks ago

These old school antihistamines, Benadryl, Phenergan, are so short term safe but I avoid them as much as possible now because they increase your risk for dementia so much when used regularly. Apparently by 50%!

So good when you really need to sleep and can't, so effective and cheap.

[-] werewolfborg@ttrpg.network 7 points 2 weeks ago

Sure, it would make me sleepy but my skin would feel weirdly sensitive every time. I couldn’t get comfortable at all, and would feel like I didn’t get any sleep the next morning.

Doxylamine + dopenhydramine + trazodone + melatonin + whiskey = best 72 hour nap Ive ever taken

Good way to get early onset dementia

[-] VitoRobles@lemmy.today 9 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago)

If I take a Benadryl, I go into a haze. Its not a good feeling. Not sure why people want to abuse it.

[-] RatBastard@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 points 1 week ago

It's mostly adolescents who can't get anything better that abuse it sadly. They're desperate

[-] Ledericas@lemm.ee 8 points 2 weeks ago

i was in a forum once where people abused benadryl, they would take it in 700-1000 range, and get deleriant effects of it.

[-] UltraGiGaGigantic@lemmy.ml 1 points 4 days ago* (last edited 4 days ago)

Man if you were this dedicated to seeing visuals I would recommend dramamine (motion sickness pills i think) over benadryl

[-] dumbass@leminal.space 7 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago)

That's how I used to save money at the pub, drop a couple before I go out, have a couple of pre drinks, then go down buzzed and just keep yourself at that. 10/10 would recommend, just don't be a idiot about it.

[-] HawlSera@lemm.ee 4 points 1 week ago

Please don't. That shit is hella addictive and leaves most users with permanent issues

I wanna die, but I wanna keep my family... not sad that I died... so....

[-] UltraGiGaGigantic@lemmy.ml 2 points 4 days ago* (last edited 4 days ago)

They're always gonna be sad when you go dude. Doesn't matter how it goes down.

It's your life, but i hope you give yourself more time to see if things feel different in the future. You die eventually no matter what so what's the rush? No one can predict the future, you can't know for sure if you will always be in this dark place.

I'm in pain every day, so I get the feels. Life doesn't have to be this way forever. At least that's what I tell myself to keep trying.

Peace stranger.

[-] RatBastard@lemmy.blahaj.zone 3 points 1 week ago

I'm sorry you're going through that mate. Benadryl is extremely unpleasant to trip on for most people, and it will only make things worse. Would you consider talking with a hotline or warmline (consensual rescue - they won't have you involuntarily hospitalised)?

[-] Aux@feddit.uk 3 points 2 weeks ago

What a waste of money... Take just one pill, chase it with a pint of beer with 50ml of vodka inside and you're golden for the day!
