Diphenhydramine (DPH, Benadryl): What You Need To Know 

Positive effects: Music Enhancement, Muscle Relaxant, and vivid hallucinations. Negative Effects: Everything

The delirium can be described as sleeping with your eyes open

I took around 900mg and saw these weird orb spiders. Then i could here my mom knocking and talking on the other side of my door, but everytime id open the door nobody was there. Kept happening over and over again,it was so clear/vivid that i was convinced someone was actually on the other side each time

I started lollin' during the fourth page of negative effects. This is literally "just fuck me up fam" drug.

I actually had a really nice experience with benadryl. took 400 mg and i heard my best friends talking to me. Me and them have recently got into a lot of fights but i heard their voices saying i was forgiven. it felt good at the time

i'm surprised that the fap enhancement wasn't mentioned

I am so interested with the shared experiences and hallucinations of the “shadow people” the “hat man” and the “spiders”. It’s fascinating to me how some specific drugs have very specific hallucinations

This drug has also been possibly linked to later dementia when used for long periods of time (sleep aid, allergy...) particularly at higher doses. Not hallucinogenic high doses, but at high end of or beyond recommended. I used to use it to take the edge off when I was in situations where I couldn't drink alcohol for a while, but those days are done. Still, it did help out a bit.

as someone who has oded on Benadryl, please take dph cautiously. I experienced complete delirium for 3 days straight and if I didn't get sent to the hospital sooner I would have died. I saw people who I thought were my family, but were not. I bit a nurse because I did not want the fluid IV. even looking at the brand name now makes me want to gag. all trips before this one were pleasant despite the short term memory loss, but if you choose to take dph please have a trip sitter, I made the mistake of not having one and almost died.

I remember this was the first drug I tried Recreationally. I know, I'm stupid. I had a pretty good trip and it wasn't too bad. I won't be doing it again though, I'll stick with LSD, Shrooms and Weed.

dude i overdosed on this as a suicide attempt and it was so hard to walk, i almost fell over a bunch of times, i kept hearing voices in the walls and everything my mom was saying just like went straight past me and i was just like “okay” to everything she said and i was shakingggg and i was drinking a lot of water bc my mouth was so dry but bc i was shaking i kept spilling water on me. i took 21 pills

This drugs is very personality based. It can take you to heaven or hell.

Dont take this shit,it just felt like reality was slowly turning into a vivid nightmare,i felt horrible sensations of fear,my right leg moved on its own every 2 minutes

I'm a psychonaut with tons of experience with LSD, DMT, and shrooms. I recently took a trip back in memory lane and took 800 mg diph. The stuff was awesome. I felt completely relaxed like I was floating. I get how the hallucinations could be delirious but I could differentiate due to my experiences with psychs. Needless to say, diphenhydramine visuals are awesome but to appreciate them, you need to master your diphenhydramine self.

The fda caring about people 😂 LoL at that joke

In most anecdotal reports, people tend to agree that 400mg is the average dose needed to really get the schizophrenic hallucinations.. (400mg was also the magic dose for myself when I tried). The best way for me to describe my experience with this drug is: It was VERY interesting, without any kind of euphoria whatsoever.. in fact dysphoric effects were present most often, just not quite intense enough to make the trips miserable.

Welp. Time to go fullfill my masochistic tendencies.

i'm surprised that low dosed use isnt even meitioned. 10-50mg already cause noticable effects, besides feeling cozily tired, that are quite pleassant, particularly in combination with other downers.

This drug was a huge part of my childhood because I suffered from a number allergies and sometimes my Mom just wanted me to sleep. It can be pleasant but when it's bad, it's bad.

900 mgs of dph was the highest I ever went and it was a pleasant body high accompanied by extreme motor function impairment and slurred speech along with minor audio hallucinations. It is extremely harmful to your liver and kidneys as they struggle to flush the high amount of antihistamines in your system. My experience is not typical and I highly recommend you to never try it. But if you are in highschool like I was when I did it you're probably going to disregard this so if you do _start low, stay hydrated, stay still,_ and *BE SAFE!*

I greatly enjoy delieriants and drugs that produce very strong hallucinations. I'm fascinated by them. I've noticed that DPH produces more "scary" visuals than most substances, but the vast majority of the time, they're just incomprehensibly weird and strange, not threatening. The most important thing to remember with delieriants is that you need a sober trip sitter with you 100% of the time when you experiment with them lol.

I'll stick with dxm this sounds sketchy

I've took 1500mg in a single day ones. It wasn't on purpose, I took like 600mg to get high, and in a delirious state I ended up taking the rest of the pills. I tripped so hard that I went out for groceries with my friends I haven't seen in years at 3 in the morning. My mom Obviously brought me to the hospital, where they Sedated me with Lorazapam and sent me off to Maryvale. A schizophrenic/Psychotic assessment facility. And now I have to take drug abuse counseling because when they tested my blood & piss, they found a whole lot of other shit that I never told them about.

Hey Seth! Thank you for providing so helpfull information on the effects of different substances :) it is illustrated so informativelly and it is presented in a way that makes it very interesting even for people who don't plan to try/use these drugs.

I usually used 100-150mg daily for about 10 years every night to sleep. One day I just decided to quit taking it. I noticed I felt agitated for a few weeks without it. I thought 100-150mg was a very high dose. I had no idea that people were taking way more than that.

This stuff is probably the worst and uncomfortable experience I have tried with any drug to trip. If you are ever going to trip, do not do benadryl. Its fucked. But anyway on with the story... So I was lying in my bed after 16 pills. I tried to stay awake but I was super tired and I was talking to someone when my eyes were closed and I pictured my friend talking to me and having a conversation with me then out of nowhere, I decided to open my eyes and I realized I was just in my bed. If you're going to try DPH, be at home or in a comfortable area you are in because this stuff makes you feel like you don't want to move. My phone was right next to me and I didn't feel like grabbing it 6 inches away from me.

my first trip was 800mg and after that "friends" keep passing me more, so I can't give the actual total dosage. Parked cars moving around, talking with a person to have them dissolve into thin air which at that time I thought was rather rude of them. Didn't see spiders, but instead it was maggots. Now imagine you are watching the landscape as a split or crack travells across the landscape on your left arm, but then it gets to a point and maggots bleed out of this as if incoming flood of maggots. Was truly gross and I managed to spend 3 hours in a shower(friends recall) The itching was intense and the urinary retention was some kind of awful. Long story short: DPH is suck.

I did a 550mg does once... never again. I had to restart almost famous at least 10 times I couldn't make sense of shit past 5 seconds and saw spiders on the wall talked to my parents and friends who weren't there and had palpation bad sweats and inability to move. This drug was hell. Ahh 18 year old me...

Man, I could give a Ted talk about this drug, wasted my twenties messing with it and dxm.

I've been taking a new sleep aid to help my insomnia and I've had super vivid, realistic, and strange dreams for over a week. Not really unpleasant, but definitely weird and thought provoking.

I tripped on 200 mg, not too bad hallucinations, a few spiders, and weird shapes, and leg felt restless

I work overnights and often take diphenhydramine to help sleep. I once decided on a day off after a rough week that I was going to get some serious sleep and took a large dose. I laid in bed with this awful sense that if I fell asleep or stopped actively focusing on my breathing, I would stop breathing. Pure impending doom feeling. Would not recommend.

I took 15 50mg diphenhydramine pills and I didn't hallucinate but I almost had a heart attack!

Ok so despite my datura fascination, I found no way how to use it "safely," meaning the bag of seeds will most likely stay sealed forever. I have also educated myself in anticholinergics and antihistamines as I got my hands on some diphenhydramine (here in Czech Republic, we have mephenhydramine, which I suspect will have very similar effects as it is an antihistamine and anticholinergic as well and is called "Kinedryl.") I am still ressearching potential physical dangers of DPH and I found this disconcerning statement on psychonaut wiki: "Diphenhydramine has been shown to block sodium channels and inhibit the reuptake of serotonin. It also blocks voltage-gated potassium channels (VGKCs), meaning it has the potential to cause or lead to torsades de points, a potentially dangerous cardiac condition that can lead to sudden cardiac death." If I am not mistaken, cocaine does a very similar thing and thus can result in sudden cardiac death (that's why I am not touching that stuff ever again). However, DPH sounds like it won't cause sudden cardiac death by its own effects but rather first lead to "torsades de points" which can lead to cardiac arrest. Therefore, I would like to ask whether it is neccessary to reach a certain dose of this substance to put myself at such risk or whether it can occur at any or if I need to have a history or at least a family history of cardiac problems. Also, so far I am reading about the anticholinergic syndrome (which causes the delirium), I still did not find a clear statement whether this syndrome is able to simply stop the functions some of the organs it affects (mostly lungs and heart). Also, anyone tried tantum verde? That stuff is apparently a deliriant as well and pretty undiscovered, it's also not an anticholinergic so it might not be so uncomfortable or outright dangerous.

I'm addicted to benadryl to the point that its actually a serious problem. Ive been taking it for many years to force myself to go to sleep. I'm actually addicted to the feeling of getting drowsy. I feel like I'll never get to sleep if I don't take it. Depression plays a role in this as well. Now I take 18 every night just to start with. As soon as I feel the drowsy effect I take 6 more. As soon as those kick in I take another 6 and repeat this. By the end I'm so out of it that I actually have no idea how many I've taken when I do try to sleep. A bottle of 100 last only a couple of days. The only time i havent taken so many or even none at all was when I've had a girlfriend. I think I should also mention for anyone who wants to take it for hallucination that it's nothing like you expect. You do not see things or colors like you are on LSD. What you see is everything wavering like you pouring water over your eyes. You see shadow figures out of the corner of your eyes like they are watching until you look. You may also see things crawling around like bugs but again it is only shadow spots. I hope one day I can say enough is enough and stop poisoning myself but its a very tough battle to win.

I used to take Benadryl 2-4 times a week to get fucked up. I would take anywhere from 600-900mg at a time and when it would finally kick in, it hit me like a bus. I removed a time that I had felt bugs crawling on my legs and heard voices whenever I would close my eyes. Also, every time I did it my feet and hands would turn purple. I never knew if i was just seeing shit or if they actually were purple. I stopped because i decided to take some in front of my mom and my sister and they were trapped in the car with me for 6 hours. It scared the shit out of them. My sister said I wouldn't stop staring and my eyes were bulging out of my head. I miss it a lot, but it's a bad idea to take that much at one time.

i feel like i’m one of the only people to actually genuinely like this drug. around last week i took it five days in a row, increasing dosage each time with friends. every night was just so fun and interesting. we all kept hearing voices and had terrible short term memory loss along with hallucinations of our friends sitting on my chair or my cat. but overall we had a good time (atleast i did) and i would definitely do it again. very interesting drug and definitely something that people like me should try atleast once

Hi there, I stopped taking this Nytol Diphenhydramine 25 mg on Sunday Last week so 8 days going and i still feel the stupid headaches from it Any tips or medicines to kill this thing out of my system? Any advice would be greatly appreciated

So for the longest time I wanted to trip on something and I wanted the hallucinogenic experience. I tried mushrooms in the past but i didn’t really see anything. It mainly was just a vibe, but that could’ve been placebo for all i know. On 8/8/2020 I decided I would trip on Diphenhydramine. I read a lot about this drug before taking it. It’s the active ingredient in Benadryl. I was very curious about what the experience would be like. I’ve tried 200 mg To try to understand what I was getting myself into. It was an okay experience. I felt really heavy and sleepy, but didn’t see anything. So I took 700 mgs yesterday to see what the experience was like. It was amazing. During the trip nothing really happened at first besides euphoria because I was about to experience something fun. My memory is a little blurry, but I'm mainly just gonna talk about the peak because that’s where shit got real cool. So during the peak. I was extremely tired, and relaxed. My first hallucination happened; my arm flashed red for a second, and then it was gone. My cognitive thinking was slowly becoming more and more suppressed. I saw these swirling lines, and shapes rapidly moving around on my leg, during the trip. It would only appear on my leg and on my white door. It was amazing. I loved to watch it. It’s crazy because on deliriants, you don’t know you’re hallucinating, and once you realize you are. It disappears. It’s super cool. I was soooo tired during this, and I had to try really hard to stay awake. Another hallucination is when I would watch the Tv, and then get lost in my thoughts. I would look at my leg and the tv would be on it. Not the TV itself but the screen and what i was watching. Another cool hallucination was when I was listening to music. You know those like NCS lines that bop with the music. My upper leg would turn into that. It would bop to the music, and the beat. It was AMAZING. It’s so hard to explain, But I loved it. It was so intense. These shapes and swirling lines had no color, and they were faint, but they were VERY real. During the peak i was very scared to leave my room, just in case i do some stupid shit, But i regret not doing that because i bet i would so some crazy stuff. Another interesting thing was my memory. IT WAS SOOO BAD LOL. I would think about something, and then forget it a min later. This happened like 10 times. Also my vision was extremely bad. Focusing was almost impossible, I couldn't read anything on my laptop, or the Tv. I had crazy double vision. And during this I also had really real Gustatory hallucination. I touched my finger to my mouth, and it tasted EXTREMEly salty. It was so weird, but I liked it so I sucked on my fingers for a little. Another first real External hallucination Was when I looked at my wall, and noted these hallucinations for me, only really happen when I forget I'm tripping, or I'm thinking of some reason bs. But I would look at my wall and at the bottom were like a bunch of little orange dots. You could follow them and it was like a path of orange dots on my wall. It was so cool. But having short term memory loss sucks while on Dph, because you forgot that you hallucinated, so you can’t look at the spot that it happened to see it again. I stayed in my room the whole time, so i didn’t really get the full experience, but for my first trip it was nuts. The swirling lines and shapes appeared on my laptop screen the most, but they are gone now. During this whole experience my memory is still pretty fuzzy around it, but i didn’t see any spiders or some shit like that. But the next time I do this will probably be like in a week or something because I’m pretty sure there’s a tolerance to it. For sure tho my favorite hallucination was the screen on my leg. Like i would zoom out while watching tv thinking about something and i would come back watching the tv on my leg. It was so cool. Another hallucination that was so cool was the beat meter on my leg. I would listen to music and the beat would bot on this line on my leg and it would stay there, and it was synced perfectly. I LOVED IT !!!!!!

Holy shit I didn't know that taking Benadryl was something people did, (for recreation), although I remember when I was 15 and a friend and I took 3 bennies and then smoked some weed. My body was falling so fast and so sedated I couldn't walk, but I fell asleep about 45 min in. I thought we were just stupid fucking degenerates and who the fuck would do that. I forgot about this and haven't thought about this in years

I take 5 of these a day takes care of my allergies and insomnia . I wake up feeling well rested, no allergies, but feel a sense of uneasiness .

Okay back when I use to do tons of drugs I dabbled In Bennies for a while. I started my night out by having a couple shots of vodka and just two 50mg pills (100mg) and 1mg of Xanax. I waited and listened to music for 30 minutes and I felt amazing. Low doses of two or three different drugs feels good. Anyways, I took another Xanax and swallowed like 8 or 9 more benadryls. So I had like 450mg of it. This is where my whole night changed. I started to hallucinate and see lots of little black dots everywhere, I slowly could literally feel myself slipping into a dream. I was awake though. But I was literally floating into a dream. I was in my basement and my parents were asleep upstairs, BUT, I though I was at this park by my house, I straight up was spitting on my carpet for 5 minutes. Then I stood up and used my doorknob as a drinking fountain. Music sounded other worldly. If I hadn't of taken Xanax I would of had a horrible trip. But this trip was just extremely weird and in a tiny way cool. I heard voices that weren't saying much. My body felt like it had strings on it and someone was pulling them to make me move. I just lived in the moment and let the trip take me to wherever it wanted to take me. I was officially an alien. I woke up the next morning completely naked and I had a whole box of cheezits in my bed. All I could think was. WHAT.THE.FUCK.

I've taken Benadryl for quite some time now. usually doses of around 300-600mg. I've experienced hallucinations at around 350mg-450mg which were quite pleasent for me. I saw my best friend opening the door of my room, going to my sofa and going under the blanket, which was laying there. When I asked him if everything was alright I obviously got no answer so I walked to my sofa and as expected he wasn't there. Shouted his name through my flat and decided to go into my other room(where my bed is) and saw him laying there with a girl. I just walked out and said "Have fun", hearing them say "Thank you". Really wild. Also saw the "typical" things like spiders(which "emerged" from a little hole in my wall and from a nail, which was stuck there). I don't encourage taking dph, especially at larger doses unless you have a trip-sitter and/or are comfortable with delirium-like experiences(which I personally am fine with). Also don't take higher doses outside and DON'T take a high dose while being or wanting to go to a forest. The only bad experience I had, was when I was outside with 2 of my friends, whilst I was tripping on 450mg of dph and I experienced paranoia like effects, f.e. being watched and followed. The hallucinations were fine for me though.

I weigh 130 and I take 8 25mg pills so 200 mg and I enjoy it. It makes me super chill and I love my mental state. It makes me forget about all of my problems and I just feel awesome. Really relaxes me I'm kinda a fan

I don’t wanna make this too long but my trip was the scariest thing i’ve ever experience and went to therapy for it .. My dad passed away a while ago and my dumbass decides to take 1000 mg or a little bit over the a couple weeks after his death Next thing u know he appears in my room and I remembered clearly having a conversation about School and how he survived the car accident... I wake up in my room surrounded by family and my mom tells me that i was talking loudly to a stuffed spongebob pillow for about 2 hours ... Worst experience of my life

I've taken 300mg and went to sleep I woke up in a desert dying of dehydration I crawled over to a water bottle to drink and had the most refreshing sip of water. Thing was I was in my bed awake hallucinating the water bottle and desert. Eventually my head started spinning and I passed out.

Gives terrible anxiety after used often in high amounts even when not under the influence.

Your videos are great, I gave you the 51 cents I had left in my paypal, youre welcome lmao

Though at low doses like 50-100mg it feels like a really weak opiate. I'm relaxed, enjoy music, my pupils constrict and im almost euphoric. Though anything above 200mg I can't sleep at all, and I've gone full delirious at 400mg. Shit was crazy. Hell of a drug

I use 50mg diphenhydramine and 25mg doxylamine every night for sleep. Been using it for 6+ years. Before that, I remember things being more interesting. I have urinary problems now too and I'm only 27. I've thought about quitting it, but I work a lot, so the risk there is not sleeping enough for my job...

I took 1000mgs and I actually thought I was gonna die and I saw a lot of realistic looking large bugs and mutated bugs and my throat was insanely dry: I gulped down a lot of water and it made no difference. I saw a lady bug, which I don't know if it was really there or not, which looked normal at first but then began to sprout extra wings and stuff on it's back as it prepared to fly it was really creepy.

Every time I’ve done it I’ve had a good time...the first time I took like 700mg(not a good idea) and I had to try my best to function like a normal human being in front of my parents and that was hard asf...I just ate dinner and went to my room and tried to avoid them at all cost

I found that my perfect amount is 150mg, it relaxes me and makes everything feel smooth and buttery

I took around 450mg years ago. I couldnt move. I layed in bed for 12 hours staring at my wall, seeing shadows all night. I had conversations that werent real. I remember trying to chew gum because my mouth was so dry i felt like i was choking on nothing. The darkness i felt looking back is creepy. Do not try.

Bro one time I done nearly took 1,000 milligrams (89 pills) and I ended up throwing the craziest party at my house. That shit was wild, so many people came. But the next day I realized that none of the shit I saw had actually happened and i was hallucinating out of this fucking world. Like God damn how tf that happen

So im not planing on using this drug habitually to trip or hallucinate but more for the very calming affect that it has on my body when I take 100-175mg. since I don't have regular access to weed or any other type of drug, would taking 100-175mg say 2-5 times a month to relax be ok and safe, if not what type of things will I experience and is there any I can use benadryll recreationly in a good way

About 20 years ago, I took a very high dose while hospitalized. It was my last day in the hospital and I was afraid to leave the hospital and wanted to stay in the hospital. Unfortunately I don't know what dose I took exactly, it was probably in the range of 1000 to 2000mg. I took it at night before sleep time, I could not sleep but lay motionless on my bed. I did not have any delirium or see any spiders. Several hours later probably around 1 or 2am, i had to go pee. I found it hard to control my muscles. I was thinking, hey this is weird, what am I doing, I cannot walk. I was walking with really bizarre steps, could not control my legs and I was very heavy. I was thinking the nurses will see me strange as I walk to the restroom across the corridor. I was able to relieve myself and returned to my bed, still with bizarre walk. In the morning, I had to sign my exit papers but I was unable to see clearly. My vision was absolutely terrible, could see shapes and colours but nothing in focus. I went to the payphone and called poison control and told my symptoms and what I had taken. They told me this condition would be temporary and reverse in a few days. I was out of the hospital and back on the street again, basically homeless. Not a pleasant experience and not something I would recommend. I have rarely taken dph since. Don't take this drug, except at small doses for sedation.

This is on my top 5 drugs ive tried tbh, i just dont like taking it before bed because the restlessness keeps me up. Im keeping the dosage under 450 every time i do it though bc the first time i did it i took an entire box (600mg) and was just extremely uncomfortable, delirious and threw up. Only bad experience ive had on it but i imagine its a personality based drug

I did 200mg's last night, I didn't get any relaxation(which was what I crave, I have adhd), but I did hear a female voice whispering "[name] help me." It only happened once, and im thinking of trying more benadryl in a more calm state of mind while listening to calm music.

Buy some sprite (average size about 20 oz), crush up around 100mg for me (I’m 128lbs) and put it in with the sprite. Then buy one five hour energy( enough caffeine as one cup of premium blend coffee),(I usually buy the berry flavored). Mix them all together and drink it. ☝🏾 that will give you relaxing and body calm effects but will not make you feel necessarily “geeked” so I recommend smoking some ganja. Then watch a movie, you will have head high while having lean like body affects. In total of the weed, sprite, 5 hour energy, and pills would be around 15$. Without the weed it would be under ten $, your welcome.

I took too much of this once before I knew about the deliriant effects in a desperate attempt to fall asleep due to pretty bad insomnia at the time. It wasnt enough for full blown delirium though. It was like 250mg iirc and I had a strange dysphoric feeling and was getting these subtle auditory and visual disturbances that were just barely noticeable enough to really fuck with my head. It didn't help that I had also smoked a decent amount of weed earlier, hoping that would put me to sleep. Whenever I did actually close my eyes, I would get these strange rapidly changing "daydreams" that were super vivid. Like normal daydreams but they would shift setting constantly and were vivid enough that, combined with the other effects of this and the weed, resulted in me spacing out and being unaware if my eyes were actually open or not. In the end, it did end up making me sleep though.

I take a "light" dose (~150mg) and then after it has started becoming uncomfortable, because yes it does become uncomfortable by itself, I dose some kratom. This is one of the only ways I have found to substitute opioids that I take for chronic pain particularly when I am needing to get to sleep. I'm at a suboptimal dose for pain, so I often cannot spare much to tackle wind-down pains from the day, so this is my little mixture. It's not pleasant, but it provides the necessary muscular sedative effect that tends to incredibly help not only the pain I have but also sensations like restless legs but more systemically. God I wish I could just access an effective dose of pain meds instead lmao.

took 600 mg the other day, it was crazy. the first thing i noticed was by my door a large group of spiders were crawling around. it was weird though, instead of appearing to be a bunch of spiders it was almost as if it were one collective being. next, the infamous hat man appeared in the corner of my room. he kept looking at me, until he walked over. all he did was stand by my bed, almost as if he were protecting me. people kept coming into my room, maybe 6 total until eventually the hat man levitated which made them all melt into puddles. the hat man said something to me, but i didn’t understand any of it; then he crawled into my vent, and i didn’t see him again. the rest of the trip compared to this was rather uneventful, but i do remember my friend appearing in the corner of my room, occasionally also melting into a puddle, reforming when i would look away.

Just don’t do this. It is, a terrible idea. You may (in a delirious state) trick yourself into taking even more of the stuff. This can kill, no joke.

Oh and realistic dreams*

This was my first hallucinogen. I took about 450mg and the most common hallucination I had is "Object Activation" which is basically inanimate objects all of the sudden move as if they're conscious. It was cool. Another common hallucination was that clothing would move like wind was being blown and the floor would look like it's boiling.

from anecdotal experience, being 185 pounds, 100-200 mg as a wank enhancer, audio euphirant, sedator and wispy smoke like wave patterns is pretty awesome, 200-500 is spiders and shadow shifting, uncomfortable body load and fogginess of mind literally spacing out having wide eyed vivid dreams in your minds eye hard to explain. 500-700 for me was still controllable but veryyyyyyyy intense hallucinations snapping in and out of talking to invisible people, objects, spiders and smoking phantom cigarettes. at this dose the effects carry over from when you finally beat the intense restless leg syndrome and get some sleep to the next day where you feel very sedated like a medium kratom dose for almost the entire next day. 700-900 (for me) was where i verged on losing control entirely, where the snapping in and out of vivid hallucinations was so infrequent i basically was just stuck in that loop feeling like "yep this is jsut how sht is perfectly normal". Yet I was able to stay out of trouble for the most part due to the sedation and heaviness, mainly chilled in bed the whole trip only have vague memories the next day and an intensely sedating afterglow where all I wanted to do was sleep the entire day. The time I tried 900 mg's was when i woke up in a psych ward lol. Everything was following its normal pattern , heaviness, shifting, spiders, euphoric come up yadda yadda talking to my dogs uncle and my sisters giraffe, when I got the bright idea to rip a FAT bong rip. I did and the only thing I remember after tht was waking up in a psych ward at my local hospital. My roommate apparently had come home and I was just completely unresponsive, still and staring at the ceiling quivering my lips as if attempting to speak but not able to use my jaw lol. I was refusing to drink any water either (duh im like a vegetable) so naturally they called the ambulance and i got a pretty shitty memory now to look back on. so yeah be careful when treading in the higher doses and adding pot to the mix the potentiation is crazy.

im scared that i got dementia from using it so much when i was a teen

I got this crazy ass story, aight so a few years ago, i took 2 boxes of em, and i was sitting at this park (dumb idea i know) but when the effects kicked in i was trippin hella for like 5 mins i think, then i dont know wtf happened, but i think i OD or blacked out idk, but i woke up in a apartment building hallway just sitting there, i sat there for a bit cause my body was feeling funny asf and i was confused like "where the hell am i?" Then i got up to check my phone but my phone was gone... Only thing in my pocket was my headphones, so i went to look outside and it was dark out and no cars were driving by, i lived in a city at the time, so i was like damn it must be late late, so i started walking back to my place and came across this sign, and it was 2am, wtf i thought to myself, it was 8 when i took em, almost 9 when they kicked in.. Just to think i had no memory of anything, i coulda died cause the apartment building i was at is across the main busy street, i somehow got across that, and also i coulda got arrested cause im pretty sure i was walking funny, idk but im glad im still alive, i promised myself i wouldnt do them no more, i kept that promise for 3 years, that promise has been broken recently, last week i took 25 of em and tripped. Took sum a bit ago so yeah, kinda sucks i broke a promise to myself.. But have a nice day and thanks for reading my story

very dirty "high", if you can call it that. makes you feel impossibly heavy and drowsy and the voices and dream logic and overall feel is uncomfortable. makes you feel schizoid ps you should do a vid on propylhexedrine as abuse of that is become popular

I had a girlfriend who would pop 5 benadryl to go to sleep. I figured if she did that it would be safe for me to take 2-3. I woke up a couple hours later unable to stay awake, unable to go to sleep. I was stuck in a twilight state. I could stand up but not walk straight, my eyes couldn't stay all the way open, and I would get huge rushes of energy that would get stuck in my muscles like restless leg syndrome all over my body. I took Benadryl another time and the same thing happened. I'll never take it again.

My favorite drug. Thanks for covering it

The most i have ever took was 1 gram aka 40 pills and i have epilepsy and my grandparents said i didn't know real from fake and the walls were melting and i was reaching for my phone but it would disappear amd i had 3 seizures and they found the bottle and thought i tried to off my self and they put me inna mental hospital and i lied and said i did try to off myself cuz I didnt want them to kno i was getting high but in all honesty it can be fun sometimes but it can also be hellish so its really a despration drug

I've been addicted to diphenhydramine for decades. I would give anything to ween completely.

after taken a stupid dose at age 15 (25 now) i sat on my toilet for hours talking to people that i latter found out were not there. shit is terrifying.

i did it and saw the grim reaper it sacred the fuck outta me and i kept jerking up when i tried to sleep

First time I tried dph I started with 350mg and noticed relaxing feelings and slight restlessness, the next day I took 550mg and saw slight visuals like static on my carpet and white and black smoky swirls, then on the third day I took 750mg (keep in mind the first day I did it was my first time ) and the visuals were more noticeable and I wud see things move out of the corners of my eyes but when I looked it was jus objects in my room distorting, and I heard small auditory hallucinations and more noticeable visuals, but no shadow people or spiders, or anything like that, and it was weird to me cuz I expected alot, and instead I jus had a very mild experience with it and not at all nightmarish or terrifying, but it's the fourth day now and I've been seeing small hallucinations ever since my first ever initial dose, don't why I jus said all that but I hope it helped some of you make a decision, it's not smart and it has a very bad effect on short term memory and even keeping a train of conscious thought.... It's has pros and cons ultimately it's ur fucking choice :p

I've taken DPH at high doses only once at 700mg, and this is probably a personal thing, but the part where you stated that as the dose rises, the sedation turns into delirium. I experienced extreme delirious symptoms, but the sedation was out of this world; I tried my hardest but I couldn't stay up more than three hours after initial consumption. Just me or was this a mistake in the video? thanks

I like how instead of saying "its bad dont do" he acknowledged that ppl do it so instead he warned u and explained safer ways

actually Benadryl can be pretty fun if youre just chilling out with friends and listening to music and watching tv/youtube or browsing the internet. How ever these effects are around the 250 mg point (for me anyways) once you go past this you can see creepy hullucinations out the corner of your eye or hear weird things, although the full out delirium where you start fully seeing creepy shit and hearing creepy shit is much higher like at 700 mg, how ever at 250 mg you can get really scared and paranoid if you watch the wrong things or are just in a general state of uncomfortability beforehand

so i took this about 3 weeks ago: i took this around 6pm. in the first 45 minutes i felt super heavy, and super paranoid. my friend felt the same. i would open outside and scream because it was dark even though there was nothing.my friend was supposed to leave and while we were waiting outside, i was talking to another friend but after, i supposedly was talking to myself after what my friend said. the effect really started around 1 am, and i was « getting ready to go to school » i was also playing hide and go seek and my hearing became extremely advance. my friend on the other hand took less but got more of the effect. she saw spiders and saw everyone in her room. for me, while going down the stairs, i was stumbling everywhere, almost falling. i wasn’t aware. i was busy talking to myself in the mirror trying to go to « the mirror world » and my dad caught me. the next morning, i woke up not remembering anything. When my dad told me what happened, i thought everything was a dream. for me, diarrhea was the side effect. Nothing major happened to me when i took 25 capsules but my friend took 20 and got it bad. i wouldn’t do it again since nothing really happened to me.

I still feel these effects every night. I ingested 3 boxes of Dramamine that contained 50mg each pill. 12 in each box. I took a fuck ton of this drug estimating to 1800mg of Diphenhydramine. I'm curious what it did to me. Because I feel the invisible bugs biting on my skin every second and my visual hallucinations are very mild but still noticeable at very stressful times. And I sometimes get restless legs. But the auditory effects disappeared 3 weeks ago. But I haven't took a single Diphenhydramine pill since the end of May. Why am I still having these effects from this drug?!!!

Crazy. You have to take a dangerously high amount just to “trip”

A wizard came out of my bathroom tile. He's now my friend. Kinda like a gnome, but more like a wizard.

I'm a 20 year DPH user. This is the most accurate vid on it. Listen to him, seriously. I use 20 50mg unions nightly

2:44 That dude's smile tells you all about this drug haha

Literally on a daily basis I take 80+mg of diphenhydramine , some days I'll take up to 300 mg throughout the day. This is because I have a mast cell disease, ... my body constantly release of histamine, so I'm constantly having allergic reactions... The only way to go about treating my disease is insane high dose of anti-histamine I never go 24 hrs without it. (This is under doctors care.)

When I was on a heroin binge I got a new dealer about 5 years ago. I was doing about .06-1.0 (6-10 bags a day). This lasted for about 3 weeks. I was seeing bugs everywhere that were not there and hearing an elevator like music. It all came to a peak when I was in my garage smoking a cigarette. I heard something and looked over... in the corner was a Japanese alien like corpse girl standing there smiling at me. I looked down scared and looked up and she was standing right behind me. She blew a bubble gum bubble and when it popped a loud scream came out of it. It’s mouth was cut ear to ear with shark teeth. Standing right behind / next to me with its mouth open. It was there it was more then a scary thought. I’ve never really experienced hallucinations that real in my life. I’m sure there was some heroin in the mix due to it not getting me sick but I did feel more uneasy and on edge then my normals guys stuff. Almost manic like. It was the scariest thing I’ve ever witnessed. That experience got me off heroin all together a week later and have never done it sense. The brand they use in the west side which I’m guessing this was due to is dormin.

I used to take this a lot because i enjoyed everything about it. Though, there were times i’d be rambling to myself in the mirror, and seconds later wondering what i was just doing and then get the fear i was losing my mind completely. Also there was a time i completely forgot who or where i was and was convinced i was in some sort of danger, and my mother told me i ran into her room in the middle of the night frantically saying, “please help me, i’m scared!” and i have no memory of it. I was hooked on it for a while, and used it to get to sleep. But the sleep is fake, you enter a weird state of half awake/half asleep, and you wake up more tired than you were. It also has a really foggy hangover. It’s just a nasty drug to get into.

once i tried 300 mg and had a very very strong arrythmia isomuch i throught i was dying.

DXM is a way better experience. If you're one to try an OTC drug make sure you get Robitussin Gel Caps. Or anything that only contains Dextromethorphan(DXM)..

Heres a small list of the possible side effect Confusion Disorientation Agitation Euphoria or dysphoria Respiratory depression Memory problems[14] Inability to concentrate Wandering thoughts; inability to sustain a train of thought Incoherent speech Irritability Mental confusion (brain fog) Wakeful myoclonic jerking Unusual sensitivity to sudden sounds Illogical thinking Photophobia Visual disturbances Periodic flashes of light Periodic changes in visual field Visual snow[citation needed] Restricted or "tunnel vision" Visual, auditory, or other sensory hallucinations Warping or waving of surfaces and edges Textured surfaces "Dancing" lines; "spiders", insects; form constants Lifelike objects indistinguishable from reality Phantom smoking Hallucinated presence of people not actually there Rarely: seizures, coma, and death Orthostatic hypotension (severe drop in systolic blood pressure when standing up suddenly) and significantly increased risk of falls in the elderly population.[15]

I took 350 mg and it was the worst experience I've ever had even though I keep doing it, the first time I did it, it was completely dark all around me in my room and I started seeing sharp claws grabbing the outside of my door, then little eyes would peer around the corner, and of something really loud would come from the TV, idk what happens but something shocks my entire body into fear and I stop breathing for 10 seconds. Whenever I looked at the wall, I saw cracks, and then little black dots come out of them. The second time was only 300 mg but it was just as bad. This time I remembered to keep the lights on, and it was a little improvement, but not much. I was sitting in my kitchen room, and I could see my dads room from where I was sitting (we live in an apartment) and he was at work for 12 hours but I swear to God I saw him sitting there doing nothing but staring out me. I wanted to say something but nothing would come out. Then the fan he had in there started moving towards me. I would not recommend taking diphenhydramine in large doses. I keep doing it because I keep wanting to feel the experience, but it just gets worse. I hope this story helps you a little bit

I get a benadryl infusion before my remicade gets infused (for IBD). I feel like I'm floating, and if I try to move I feel like I have cinder blocks tied to me. I pass out for like 3 hours right after. I also get extremely happy and start laughing uncontrollably

I take it for sleep occasionally . 100-150 mgs.... I don’t understand ppl using it to get high because anything over 100-150 mgs gives u a extremely restless uncomfortable feeling

I find even the recommended maximum dose of 100mg uncomfortable. You're exhausted and all you want to do is sleep but your legs feel like they need to move and your skin gets too sensitive.

I played on an imaginary phone texting everyone I know for who knows how long until I’d realize. Only to begin doing it again in a thought loop. Young and stupid. Hallucinated seeing a car parked outside of a friends house, and I walked on the side walk to go home and it misted away; This was over 24 hours after consumption.

Thank you for harm reduction, very cool

you can take like 50-100mg with your favorite opioid drug to enhance the sedative effects but wouldnt recommend regular use

Diphenhydramine is also addictive. If taken for a long enough period of time, large dosage daily use for its euphoric properties, there are wothdrawl symptoms including night terrors, body shocks, nauseousness, and overactive runny nose and other hightened allergy symptoms,
