I'm thinking of trying Benadryl sometime soon.. I would like to know what it's effects are, I've heard a lot of interesting things about it. I've done weed, hash, E, mushrooms, coke and acid so I'm thinking of taking the step to pharmaceuticals. Are there any precautions I should be aware of when dealing with Benadryl and pharmaceuticals in general? I've heard it dehydrates you so you have to drink a lot of water when tripping. Also what would be the recommended dose for a first timer? I'm doing a lot of reading on the subject on erowid and other sites but I'd like to hear from you guys
it definitely DOES dehydrate you, thoroughly, so keep drinking water. You will piss ALOT, but still drink more water. You will be completely delerius and fucked up in the head. At high enough doses, you will hallucnate and won't be able to decifer what is real and what is just in your head, so you may want to have sober friends near. I would say a good first-timer dose is abou 300-350mg. That is probably not enough to make you hallucinate, but it will give you a feel of the effects of the drug and you will know a little more about what to expect when you take a higher dosage. At this dosage, it is probably not as important to have a sitter, but when you start to up the dosage, you must have a sitter. After this dose, I would say you could move up to about 525mg. Then you will get some of the more intense effects. If you are feeling brave, go up to 750-775mg after this. That is the highest dose I took, and I almost died, but it was still very interesting; at least, after the trip was over. Keep reading erowid, especially the effects page and the dosage page.
i tried 175 mg and didnt feel a thing, so the only advice i can give you is take more than 175 mg, the light effects i felt though i didnt really like... but have fun and be safe either way
for christ sake jsut smoke weed its better for you and its a way better buzz, but hey i guesse you gotta try something once
lol.. well obviously no drug in this universe can replace weed.. but that doesn't mean I won't try other kinds of drugs too.. pharms included.
me and my friend each took 14.. and the whole time i just sat there "talking to my friends" haha but they weren't really there..weird as hell, and then you snap back into reality and start another weird dream
nothing particularly profound with antihistaminics/anticholinergics... you just put yourself in a stupor, a delerium, in which you're not aware of what you're actually doing; no revelations, no spiritual enlightenment, just a straight up delerious state, as if you had a high fever. if you're thinking of trying it, I highly suggest not being alone when you do.
If you think that's crazy, try 31 of them. I took 21 one day, and drove a car at the peak, very irresponsible, but I did it. The very next day I took 31, to total 52 of them in two days. That was a crazy two days. I saw demons climbing out of clothes on the floor. My TV remote quit working, so I put it in the dish washer, because I thought it wasn't working because it was just dirty. I got in the shower with my clothes on. Some crazy shit. Polymer is right, you don't really have any logical realizations while tripping on benadryl, but after the trip is over, you will somehow realize something about yourself. When you push your mind past the edges of sanity, you are bound to come to some sort of realization, but definitely not during the trip. If nothing else, you will realize how far out the mind can be stretched and you will know a little something about what lies on the other side of sanity. If you want to know what schizophrenia is like, the benadryl is the drug for you.
Yea I totally understand.. sounds very intriguing though, I'm definitely going to try it soon with a few friends. Do you recommend a sitter at a dose of 300-350 mg? I personally don't like having a sitter around because it makes me self conscious about my actions, thus adversely affecting my high/trip. But then again I've never done pharms before so if you think having a sitter is advisable, I'll get one.
Yeah get a sitter. When tripping on benadryl you will commit all kinds of crazy acts and say all kind of crazy/stupid shit. Your safety really will be an issue. I doubt 350mg would be enough to cause the really delerious/schizophrenic effects, but it's better safe than sorry. There is no telling how a drug will affect you, especially the first time you use it.
I have tried benadryl 3 times now, and every time i have fallen asleep! i even drank some coffee before the last time, but that stuff is like a tranquilizer!
one thing i noticed when i tryed benadryl... i ate 500 mg worth i think, and all of a sudden my throat when raw, and i felt like a had to pass out... so i just put earphones in and blasted it on full volume. It kept me in a state of half sleep/ half concious but once it really started kicking in, i couldn't fall asleep no matter how hard i tried
