Currently waiting for my trip to begin and needed something tl pasd the time. This isn't necessarily a trip report but more so a list of all my favorite things to do with benadryl.

When I was about 18 I started taking one or two a night to help me sleep. It stopped working so I started taking more and more as time went by. It wasn't long after that I realized 'oh if I fight the sleep imma get fucked up'
And that's how it started

In my opinion one of the best things about diph is that I do things that make little to no sense, or I have such difficulty doing normal things that its absolutely hilarious the next day when I look back trying to remember the trip.

My first funny experience I took eight 25mg tablets after having a few beers. I ended up sleeping, but I woke up in the middle of the night to pee. When I got to the bathroom I couldn't for the life of me find the light switch. I kept running into invisible walls. I had to go so bad that I said screw the light and moved onto trying to find the toilet. In my search for the toilet I kept tripping on the bathtub and got stuck under the sink a few times. After I finally relieved myself it was time for another journey, this time back to my room. Once again while looking for the door I was having no luck due to the invisible walls. Once I got out I went back to bed, woke up the next morning and went pee and was completely shocked to see it be such a disaster as I thought I dreamt the entire experience.

I tripped plenty more times after that and started to realize I liked it to much and it was a problem. I quit for about 3 years.
Just recently I started again.

I'm not sure why I enjoy it so much. Tripping on benadryl literally feels like I'm going to die. My body moves like a video game that lags. My legs feel like I have cement blocks tied to my feet when I move. I grind your teeth, talking is damn near impossible. I hallucinate but its never anything good which brings me to one of my next favorite moments. I don't generally get visual hallucinations, but more auditory. One of the first times after being sober for 3 years I was laying in bed scrolling on my phone and I put of nowhere say 'what? ' and then as I look up I see my boyfriend disappear.. I was home alone that night.

Another one of my favorite things is writting in like a journal or notebook.
I lose so much motor skills on diph. If I read it the next day I won't understand a word of it. Another effect is losing train of thought so if I read my writing I can actually see how quickly that happens.

I can't think of my other funny moments right now.
But I will list some more effects
Dry mouth
Having to pee but not being able to
Swallowing hurts
Lack of coordination and motor skills
Talking is damn near impossible.
Visual and audio hallucinations that are generally straight oout of s horror movie.
Bad hang over for the next day or 3 depending on how big of a dose you take.


I wanted to post more of my funnies, but I keep losing my thought.
