25, also don't. It's legit one of the craziest trips I've ever had and it's highlighted by the fact that nearly everyone that does it will tell you it was crazy and powerful but don't do it.
No one should spend multiple hours having full on conversations with people that aren't there, it's deeply unpleasant to watch from the outside and I've been on both sides.
I used to hang out on the dph subreddit and it was one of my favorite drug subs. A little bit depressing because of the side effects and how many of them had already suffered significant brain damage though.
I miss the drug subs like /dph or /heroin. I read them for years since these very much interest me— there’s so much of the human experience I will never try— but I fear permanent side effects and am not much of the drug type anymore. If only I could try it and rewind time with the memories intact.
Does Benadryl affect people differently? I've been taking this all my life, and all it does is stop my allergic reactions and put me to sleep. Some people are talking like they dropped acid.
It enhances sleep deprivation. A 100mg dose on 36 hours no sleep will likely reveal the shadow people, a 50 mg dose on 48 hours no sleep will very likely reveal the shadow people, a 25 mg on 72 hours no sleep will almost definitely reveal the shadow people... if they haven't already revealed themselves.
You do not want to meet the shadow people. Not because they are exceptionally creepy, but because it probably means some amount of brain damage, and they will never completely go away after.
Because that shit will fuck you up. For life. It's scary how so many of the really dangerous recreational drugs are so easily available while the arguably-less-harmful (and, yes, all drugs have potential for harm) are completely illegal.
My buddy told me about how his dad found this energy supplement next to the dick pills at a gas station, said 'what the hell, why not' and it made him feel really weird and gross, which took him by total surprise, and he had to pull over to avoid causing an accident because he was driving.
It was kratom. They sell kratom as an energy supplement at gas stations next to the dick pills. With no warning of the addiction or withdrawal symptoms associated with it being similar to that of opioids. He'd never even heard of the stuff before. (Apparently it's been dubbed 'gas station heroin', so maybe I was one of that day's lucky 1000. I only knew of it being sold at a lot of smoke shops, but at least you know what you're buying there.)
Now, I admit, I didn't see the bottle myself. Maybe my buddy's dad is a dumbass (actually, no maybe about it, he certainly is from the stories I've heard), maybe the people that buy those supplements from dick pill stand or drink strange elixirs without thinking much about it don't deserve my sympathy, but in an ideal world that kind of warning would at the very least be really hard to miss before you take it and especially before you get behind the wheel of a car...
lsd my beloved :( ostracised because they had to put hippies in prison for something. schedule I with no medical uses my ass too, that ban stopped every ongoing research into how lsd could help in psychiatry, and though research wasn't finished it sure as hell didn't look like it was useless. The US drug enforcement administration lied in nearly every single part of their statement following the ban
Quick LSD anecdote: LSD literally reminded me what actual happiness feels like. I've struggled with depression for much of my life and had a stretch of about a decade where my mood never rose above the level of "meh" and was often much worse than that. LSD filled me with joy and allowed me to feel happiness again even after I came back down.
For that reason I will forever be an LSD advocate.
Here's the nursing school pharase for anticholinergic side effects: Can't see, can't pee, can't spit, can't shit. Doctors tend to use: red as a beet, dry as a bone, blind as a bat, mad as a hatter, hot as a hare, full as a flask.
If going through that just to also be able to hallucinate sounds appealing to you, go for it.
just eat some psychedelics like a normal person the worst those can do is shatter your image of self and then rebuild it, oh and sometimes your muscles can ache a little afterwards because flexing them felt amazing
I think it should be pointed out that some traditional psychoactive drugs (such as datura) work the same was (they're potent anticholinergics) and you'd have to be nuts to use them.
Back in my teens, I had a nasty bout of sinus issues, stemming from allergies.
This was in the late eighties, and Benadryl was pretty much what everyone had. It was the default antihistamine.
So, with my dad at work, and my mom needing to handle shit, I just grabbed some supplies and holed up in my room.
Took a dose and then napped. Woke up, took the next dose, napped again.
This cycle continued for two days. Or so I thought.
I woke up at one point with he-man leaning out of the screen of the TV and talking some crazy shit. The walls were breathing, and the rug on the floor was crawling away.
Now, I don't know how long I lay there just watching everything wiggle and squirm into and out of other dimensions, but my mom got home and brought me the drink I had asked for. She had left about three hours before.
To my best estimate, I took something like eight or ten of the damn things. I know I took at least six. There were two pills to a dose, and I could remember taking three doses for sure, but there were five of the blister packs empty, one of which might have been taken by my dad the week before, nobody could remember if it was from that box or the other we had. During all the dosing and sleeping, I thought it was days, and that makes the five doses a decent likelihood.
It was. . . Interesting.
For several days, I was loopy as hell. Not high, just kinda floating through life. And my dreams were even crazier than usual (I've always had intense dreams, still do) for about a week
Benadryl and wu-tang have that in common, they ain't nothing to fuck with.
Eh one every now and then is fine, I take it for motion sickness when going on long car rides. Half a pill is enough. Then again, taking enough to get nightshade-like poisoning is really not recommended.
Long term use has now been linked to neurological issues, it crosses the blood brain barrier. However, yes occasional use is relatively safe. But it is not recommended as a daily antihistamine at all these days.
