I took large doses of benadryl as a teen/ early adult and my headspace has never been the same since. Do not do it.
Honestly I just stopped taking it in general. I stopped when I almost got in a car crash after taking it because I couldn't concentrate.
Would you mind sharing what exactly changed if you can still remember that ?
Sounds really nasty.
@@DeadNoob451 Sure. My ability to think critically and perform arithmetic suffered the worst, but overall it feels like the internal balance of all of my senses just shifted. Like, imagine being drunk, then being hungover the next day, and the day after that you still feel a tiny bit hungover, but that feeling never goes away.
Benadryl is shit alone. I Mix about 100mg with 400dxm there i have a beautiful harmless trip

OTC abuse, brought to you by the war on drugs and boredom from lockdowns.
Boredom is a potential sign of low intellect.
I haven't been bored this entire time, lol
@@windsofmarchjourneyperrytr2823 Bro it's exactly the opposite actually
I would argue that not being bored could be a sign of stupidity. Less social stimuli is taxing on any social animal.
@@jaaqess2525 Intelligent people get shit faster, thus resulting in boredom because a particular thing is "figured out" already. Stupid people take longer to accommodate meaning more time being engaged in a task which equals less boredom.

Or addiction.
At its best lmao
@@_synne stupid teens taking Benadryl for an internet trends seems to have very little to do with addiction from where I see it
@@yunghunt2644 In the case of the Benadryl challenge, I totally agree with you. But diphenhydramine can be considerably addictive when taken at recreational doses regularly. I took DPH before the Benadryl challenge was a thing, and next thing I know, I'm stuck taking it daily.
"And don't expect a quality following if that's what people know you for."
Damn dude. Troof.

it's an important thing to address, too. i wish it wasn't the last line of the video and was actually among the first because impulsive kids who would be willing to do the benadryl challenge for fame are probably not going to watch the whole video, especially since it goes against a decision they're considering. their biases will more than likely come into play and make them close the tab before they have a chance to realize that this might not be something they would want to do
Taking just two pills (which is the maximum recommended dose) sometimes gives me mild auditory hallucinations so the idea of taking more than that terrifies me
blacked out taking 15 had a 20 min conversation with my friend which i don’t remember it also made my eye’s really red next time and the feeling is not great it started making me itch after i kept getting high of it for so long and muscle spasms
Really? That’s crazy. I have to take 50mg a night on top of my prescribed sleep meds and melatonin too
@@FransceneJK98your body doesn't determine how others react to drugs. That's not how it works.

@@modernvivienleigh yea no shit 😂
I tried it 8ish years ago when I was still in active addiction (mostly heroin but other drugs as well) and it was absolutely the worst experience. I didn't take nearly as much as the girl from this case, but still enough to have some pretty terrifying effects. Hearing voices, seeing shadows moving and forming into objects. The worst part was that shadows would start to morph together into giant (dog-sized) 3D spiders and crawl around. I'm a person that's deathly afraid of spiders, so this was not a good time. I never tried it again after that, but I still feel like my mind is somewhat cloudy ever since then, and again, it's been years. Thankfully I've been able to remain clean from everything for over 6 years now, and my body has been able to recover a lot from my use. But a few experiences have still left deep scars in me and just that one Benadryl use is one of them.
Keep sharing your experiences and how you feel to help prevent others from addiction and also to remind yourself how far you’ve come!
Praying for you and as a mom, really proud of you for remaining clean! ❤️

*[TW for arachophobes: spider trip story!* Just skip this paragraph if you're very bothered by lots of (imagined) spiders. Or long, rambling trip stories.] Once at the hospital I was put on a medication that caused some wild hallucinations. I remember the TV screen was the only normal thing. Everything else was just mad! I looked to the window, closed & covered for the nighttime, and a million shiny beetles poured out from the blinds (like someone dumped a couple buckets of beetles through for giggles?). I glanced away and back a couple times, and each time a bunch of them came out to skitter about on the blinds, then fall & disappear. I was trying to eat some noodles, but as I tried to focus my eyes on them to get a forkful, I think my vision blurred a bit, which my brain turned to mold [a major phobia]. It was an odd orange mold that covered the food in seconds, then it began to shimmer and grew taller in a spiky form, and as it did it transformed into clusters of iridescent, sparkling, glass-clear crystals... Fear of the disgusting mold became fascination with the beauty of the crystals as I leaned in close to peer at them, but then they grew yet taller (~3cm?). Suddenly, at once they all moved oddly, sort of jittered, and all together unfolded themselves and spread their legs, each "needle" a spider's leg... Hundreds of weird little glass spiders took form and then ran all over my food, up my fork, and onto my hand. I knew they weren't real, but I swore I could feel them, their delicate little crystalline legs... I dropped the fork and pushed the food away. There was no way I could eat that! Even though when I checked my hand and the food, there was no trace of the spiders, the crystals, or the "mold", I kinda lost any appetite that may have been there. Pretty normal reaction, I think, lol.
*SPIDER STUFF OVER*
[I had a friend who was severely arachnophobic, so I get ya if you're also.]
But I don't feel like it was actually frightening nor "gross". More... interesting? Still, I don't [and can't in good conscience] recommend seeking out this kind of thing intentionally. It was a side effect of a med given for discomfort, not for fun. (They've got some wacky meds there for the wacky ways our bodies can fail us.) Frankly, I'd prefer not to have to do it again; hospital stays are not "fun". That was just a "goofy side effects" experience as part of a larger, much less "goofy" experience. But I figured the story might be of some interest. Or it's like when your friend tells you they "had the wildest dream!" and it's just a weird mess of nonsense. Hopefully the former? Heh.
*And OP...*
I'm glad you got away from that stuff. It's not easy [understatement of the century], and takes real courage and pain to overcome [more understatements ig, sorry]. I hope you're continuing to do well overall. Even if you've slipped up [no judgement; noting only just in case cos I don't know you], you know that's not failure, and it doesn't put you back at square one; it just means you've hit a bump in the road and you've got to get back up and keep moving forward. GL & cheers. ❤︎
I intentionally OD’ed on a drug in the same class as Benadryl. Y’all, don’t do it. I couldn’t walk. I didn’t get rushed because the EMT was more curious about asking me why I tried to commit die than actually getting me treatment. I took like 200 pills. I reported the amount in grams and she didn’t get that it was a HUGE amount.
Thankfully thankfully thankfully I threw up early on, but some of it still got to me. The taste of the concentrated pills coming up after several cycles of vomiting with barely any stomach acid left was disgusting. I threw up so long I aspirated on my vomit. I was so exhausted I threw up all over myself. I’m pretty sure I had an absence seizure. It was like this ball of lightning was approaching my ear and I could feel all the energy on that side and suddenly when it hit me, BAM! It felt like an explosion in my head. Again and again and again. My brain felt like it existed on a different plane of reality. I can’t explain it.
My mouth was so dry. I can’t describe it. It was beyond uncomfortable. Imagine your mouth without a single drop of saliva. You can try to smack it but nothing will come. The inside of your mouth is like your outside skin.
I had a fever because I wasn’t sweating and I was wearing winter clothes. So basically, within an hour I was shivering uncontrollably, throwing up all over myself while not being able to disperse the horrible pill taste because I had no saliva, and throwing up so hard I breathed in my vomit, all while experiencing these weird head explosions.
After that I was basically asleep for two days, and when I was awake I threw up. If they moved my bed even slightly I threw up. I was so out of it they couldn’t even do a psych eval before admitting me to the ward. The shift of 4 psychiatrists passed before they decided they were just going to admit me.
I didn’t go to the bathroom because I couldn’t move so eventually when the effect of the pills started wearing off I shit myself.
It’s embarrassing but also you need to understand what happens when you OD on this stuff. never again. If you want to commit aliven’t please please go straight to the hospital without trying something first.
Being that physically ill they should have not admitted you to a psych ward until you were more physically stable. But tbh my experience is that they’ll leave all sorts of significantly physically ill patients on psych wards without proper physical monitoring.
Holy shit man
I aspirated too during my first benadryl trip. I was in class, and started getting sick, so I got up and forgot to ask. So I stopped haf way and asked and she let me go. The moment I got out the door I threw up, but because I hadn't eaten much, I only wretched up a bit of matter and it was very painful. I then made it to the bathroom, where I threw up and aspirated, and in a desperate attempt to breath, I moaned very loundly before collapsing and vomiting more. After I stopped vomiting, I looked up and saw a guy standing in the doorway staring at me. He took me to the nurse and I got to lay down. Want to know the best part? I never even got to go home!
Sorry to hear! What was the drug, if I may ask?
Sounds like that was just a cry for help
I'm 9 minutes in and I finally realized the reason this has a different format from the videos on the Chubbyemu channel is because I clicked the heme review video first 🤦♂️
Hatman and his spider friends were probably glad to have the company lmao.
Hell yeah lol
I got IV Benadryl at the ER that was pushed a little too fast and the dose was a little too high. It made me have a really bad trip and a huge meltdown. One of the worst feelings of my life, and I have a chronic pain condition. I cannot imagine doing that on purpose

@@gnatdagnat I used to do it as well, over years, and trust me it was just to get high because I was on probation and it was the only option, plus to hallucinate and let me escape reality.
gnat da gnat it’s the most “interesting” drug even if it’s not the most enjoyable. you have hallucinations that are realistic and could go from your darkest fears to the most surreal fantasies or just normal shit like broken glass and cars scattered everywhere. seeing what your unconscious truly fears is a very eye opening experience and i recommend everyone tries this once and never again because over time it stacks up. i’ve tried it about 6 times and the last time i swore never again because i felt like I had seen it all at that point, and i wasn’t taking it every day so I wasn’t addicted. just don’t get addicted and you’re fine
@@infelicities people like you hyping it up are what got me to try it, stop it.
I got addicted to benadryl as a sleep aid a long while ago due to many sleep disorders causing extreme chronic insomnia, one night I took 20 pills in an attempt to possibly get to sleep, it didn't do much, and I didn't get any of the symptoms listed here, but for years after I stopped using benadryl my short term memory was absolutely destroyed, I had to carry a book around in my pocket to remember the simplest things, I felt anxious all the time that I would forget something, family began to resent me cause I couldn't remember to do chores or if they told me to do them already. Now 7 or 8 years later, the brain fog is better, not much due to other health issues, but my short term memory slowly recovered to a point I wasn't scared every day I'd forget something. Dont abuse benadryl kids
I'm sorry you went through that. How long did you take them
I’m calling BS! Diphenhydramine is NOT addictive !
question i used to take 200mg a night as sleep aid, any tips on how this could have effected my body and mind?
Did you see a neurologist?
how did you beat addiction?
I took 2 pills for an allergic reaction and slept for 17 hours how can you even get high off this? It drops me like a brick
It depends on how your body will respond to the medicine. 2 pills definitely won't do that for me. Maybe because I'm conditioned to the effects.
It has never ever phased me. Knocks out everyone I know but I can take 50mg and not feel a thing. Maybe it's because I only ever tried it as a sleep aid since I don't have allergies.
And of course, everyone is different.
In recommended doses it causes drowsiness, but an overdose causes agitation and hallucinations.
I take 1 pill and it knocks me out!
I take it for migraines and I WISH it made me sleep.
I’m taking general chemistry as a freshmen in college right now and it’s really cool seeing how the stuff I’m learning applies in real life. We recently did a lab about the sense of smell and how the formal charge, functional groups, and molecular geometry all contribute to the smell we perceive. Seeing it applied in this situation is really cool, despite the macabre circumstances.

The ridiculous things Tiktokers will do just to get that 5 minutes of fame.
I guess it is kind of an addiction. Same reason people gamble. They get a hit of dopamine for a short while when they win but ultimately, lose big. In this case, the... ticktocker (I'm gonna call then that) preformed the stunt and got a hit of dopamine from seeing people react but ultimately, lost big.
Tiktok is the only way to get fame. Them wannabes
Most of us use the internet as an escape from reality but some just take that saying to another level.
I know, right! For likes. LIKES?!
Geez, back in mah day, we did stupid shit too, but at least it was for money! 😆
Welcome to the world we all helped creating or at least the "civilized" countries.
I've watched you grow from a small # of subs on Chubby Emu - you are destined for great things and I'm very happy for you. I may not understand 50% of what you say, but I enjoy trying to learn it, and it gives me a true appreciation for the type of things doctors need to learn, remember, and apply in treatment. You are a good doctor. Thank you for sharing your knowledge with us!
Oh crap I thought this was that guy but I wasn’t 100% great to see he’s doing well
That little line at the end "dont expect a quality following" is spot on if you get famous from something like this you're only gonna keep that fame if you continue doing what brought them there or worse
I did it when I was younger around 4 years ago and my body is still recovering the doctors I had also didnt take all these precautions and didnt really have experience so i cant blame them but i feel my body has suffered majorly please anyone who is thinking of doing this you will regret it for the rest of your life just do mushrooms if you want to trip
THANK YOU! Glad I wasn’t the only one who thought that!
Nah mushrooms are fucking nasty, acid is better if used safely and not the whole god damn thing of it
@@KadenMeidinger1 mushrooms are beautiful if you’re looking for a lighter trip with less body load and just want to laugh. Amazing in the 1-2 gram doses. If you don’t like the taste you can get chocolate bars
Make mushrooms legal and people won't be so desperate to reach for stupid things.
@@erikseavey9445 You know that's never gonna happen with this twisted government they have things that kill us legal like alchohol and tobbacco which kill hundreds of thousands a year but something like mushrooms which has never killed anyone be illegal because big pharma companies know it will eventually run them out of buisness especially antidepressants
I remember when I took half a bottle of benadryl. Every account of it said something like "It sounded interesting despite the warnings so I tried it, then [insert horrible experience]." Horrible experience sounded interesting despite the warnings so I tried it.
It was one of the worst experiences of my life. Legit left me traumatized. I panic when I see spiders now. I felt like I'd been poisoned for at least the next week. Nobody should ever try this shit because even at levels that won't send you to the hospital it's terrible.
You saw spiders in every crack of your clothes and blankets to didnt you
This makes me want to.
I want to know what spiders everywhere feels like
X-37bNASA - SFS I only slightly overdosed once, I took 2 packets of sleep time Benadryl drink powder instead of one, and I was in a Skype call with my ex bf when I took it. After 30 minutes I started feeling really heavy, having slight audio hallucinations and nothing felt real. I remember asking my ex over and over “is this real?? Are we really on a call right now?? Are we really talking???” And I couldn’t sleep. My legs would cramp and feel restless, and my heart rate was up. It was fucked, my guy. And for about a week I could tell that my short term memory was affected. And I had a brain fog. It sucked so bad. Not worth it. It also causes brain damage.
One time I had that once in a blue moon night where you just couldn’t sleep. Took probably around 11 of fucking Costco Benadryl, I wasn’t even trying to get high, I just wanted to sleep, I heard voices and had a dream where I could smell corpses. Not pleasant. On top of that I felt like shit for the next week, I can’t imagine doing half a bottle. I’m never touching that shit again, even if I have a rash.
People should always check Erowid before trying any new substances.
Plenty of folks have tried just about everything, and its important to do your research so you don't end up making a huge mistake.
If I had had friends and teachers like you during college I would probably still be pursuing my biology degree and not working a dead end job.
my condolences. i hope you're able to go back to school or pick up a trade sometime soon.
The good thing about a dead end job is that you have nothing to lose by saving and starting a business
@@NameGame446 you're talking out of your ass dude. You need a lot of money in order to do these kinda things. If you're in a dead end job you won't be making anywhere near that money

When I was younger I took benadryl to sleep, my tolerence got really high so at one point I took 300mg, I thought spiders were crawling under my skin and that I was sinking into my bed, stopped taking it for sleep after that
i took around 200mg (i’m a lightweight to almost everything so this was a LOT to me) and i didn’t get the spider thing but the sinking in my bed was very calming in way? idk
The Benadryl spiders are real?
I've felt the crawling, but with scabies, literal bugs that crawl under your skin and require you to rub a cream (i forget what it is) all over (and I mean ALL over) your body to kill them. Also have to wash all sheets and clothes, and more. Never heard about benadryl for sleep though.
I don't go over 100mg for sleep to avoid those spiders lol
I take 125mgs every night was once as high as 200mgs. Strange drug sometimes it makes me tired but others I get wired. Would never take more than that though. 😊

I took a recommended dose of Benadryl allergy, thinking it was just normal allergy meds, in the middle of a work day (working from home). Maybe 45 minutes later I was so zonked out I had to stop working, slept for 5 hours, and felt awful for days afterwards. Its insane that its even available OTC in my opinion
Yeap it's why it's so rarely used now days. Those of us with allergies only resort to using it when NOTHING else works.
.. Which is why it's still on the market. It's seriously the saving grace for some of us.
@@OgdenM yeah it's def good as a saving med. my skin gets hives easily and when they get widespread the oral pills are a lifesaver. i just found out theres a topical gel form too and that changes the game if i have a small case thats localized.
Being addicted to Benadryl is like being addicted to the feeling of waking up from a 1 hour nap at 2pm.
Why is nobody on those social media sites even remotely questioning those challenges? I mean, taking large quantities of a medicine already screams out "bad idea", heck taking large quantities of anything can be a bad idea, you can overdose even on Water and Oxygen.
*sarcasm on* I can't wait for there to be an Apple seed challenge or a Bitter Almond challenge, because theres NO way those can be bad, right? After all, they're natural products, right? *sarcasm off*
Yeah you would expect that after the cinnamon or tide pod one folks would get the message.
Also its important to not just stay far away from large amounts of medicine but also anything that is some kind of unpopular psychoactive substance (unpopular before some kinda retarded social media challenge picked it up). There is always a really really good reason why folks dont trip on a lot of substances, even if they are into that sorta stuff.
Lots of people question them, but that doesn't stop anything
@@DeadNoob451 There are quite a few examples of psychoactive substances that are available over the counter only being unpopular because of regulations requiring them to only be sold in unappealing forms and small quantities despite not being dangerous.
They don't want to stop this types of challenge bc they want that to happen. Tiktok is not naive social app at all, and it's not for young naive peope.
There are plenty Darwin Awards to go around it seems. I don't understand how they can be so dumb lol, are there no poison control classes in schools anymore?

@@EEsmalls Bro you’re gonna get dementia by age 40 if you keep doing that
This whole thing seems like an evil prank by the psychonaut/drug user community on the tiktok community. In drug user circles, people have known for years the horrible effects of anticholinergic toxicity, with memes like Virgin DMT vs Chad Datura, and "awe hell naw, spunch bop took 30 benadyl now he's in the backrooms"
The psychonaut community is pretty open about it being awful.
I'd love to have a new video to watch, AND I'm using this time to re-watch older ones and really cement the knowledge. Heme Review review. 😊👍👍
I had an entire standard sized carton from the gas station when i was a kid, that I used to treat a bad allergic reaction back before I knew anything about benadryl’s toxicity or that, for example, you’d use an epi pen instead for the trouble breathing. We didn’t know where we were but google helped us find our way to the hospital. Benadryl is just pure psychotic dementia.
I feel bad but I laughed at this, because the logic makes complete sense, especially for someone in an emergency. Allergy medication, that's gonna help an allergy!
I’ve got some unknown problem with my immune system that causes symptoms similar to anaphylaxis and Benadryl actually does help. Often in hospitals/ERs they will give you an H1 blocker like Benadryl and corticosteroid along with epinephrine. So it isn’t unreasonable to assume it could help.
Granted a carton of Diphenhydramine is way way way too much but yeah.
@@debayeuxchats5607 benadril is a good way to survive the trip to the hospital if you dont have an epipen on hand
EpiPen‘s are too expensive for me so I have to rely on Benadryl and hope it saves my ass. It saved my ass a couple of times this week alone. Trouble breathing is not fun but I’m damn lucky Benadryl is helping with it for now. I’m going to make another doctor appointment because what was suggested on Wednesday did not help. Grr. no clue what is setting off my severe allergy attacks…
@@BlinkOnWheelsother antihistamines don't work for you? Benadryl is rough on your brain. Claritin? Nose sprays? Allegra?
As someone who use to take benadryl for sleep every night for almost a month, i can personally atest to how bad it will make you feel the next morning/day.
I used to do that too but surprisingly it never made me feel bad in the morning but I’m glad I don’t take it anymore because it was taking a toll overall
Like a hangover without the nausea
I recently started working at a place where we're required to ask for ID/ to purchase anything containing DPH and won't sell it if it seems like an adult is buying it for a kid/teen. I figured it was because people were using it to get high, which is bad enough, but I had no idea just how awful the reaction can be.
Thank you again for representing the nation’s medics well. Lots of my family medicine patients are middle school children who watch and learn from your videos. They try to quote your comments to me and it’s great. So don’t go away!!
I love this channel. I've always been interested in medicine, but chose to do engineering in University. This gives me access to so much interesting information that I otherwise wouldn't have, in an easily digestible format. Thanks mate
I swear I learn more here than in my science class 😅
I took Dramamine (same chemical as Benedrly) to hallucinate when I was a kid. This was well before TikTok. It does feel disgusting. I remember my sister came over and I was talking to her about the Christmas tree in my living room, then suddenly I realized I was actually passed out leaning against a wall. My sister wasn’t even at my house and it was July. There was no Christmas tree. This kept repeating where I’d transition from awake to dreaming about being awake doing mundane things. I literally couldn’t tell if I was awake or asleep. It also just felt really really gross. Twitchy and tired and out of control.
I took that for sleep and didn’t realize how bad the effects were I was sleeping all day I stopped taking it completely it scared me how sedative it was
I have dreams like that even without Benadryl. LOL
How did I make it to 22 without having ever seen liquid Benadryl
Lol try 31:D
Even people who use benadryl to get high don't use nearly that much
yeah i dont understand how these people are willing to consume so much of random drugs without any research on doses/effects. or pehraps they just dont care
True, I saw some people in the comments who did or currently still do use bernadryl to get high and they don’t use that much
@@queenblister7845 it sucks, last time i did it (sadly recently) I took around 500mg which is fucking strong. You build tolerence fast and the first time anyone should do it is only for 200mg. If you take a fuck ton like two bottle your first time you will probably die. Just how herion addicts can shoot up .5 gram of smack but if I shoot .5 gram for the first die i would most likely OD.
I took 600mg twice a couple years ago and decided to not take it again. It was really cool but it was just being a little “high” while you sit in place then you “dream” that you got up and made a sandwich then you snap to and realize you imagined it and you haven’t left
@@jeffpraterJSF Seems to describe false awakenings pretty much. Like I sometimes will wake from sleep, get out of bed, go brush my teeth, get ready for work, etc. when all of a sudden I wake up again and realized those whole series of previous events were just in fact a dream. And it can get very disturbing and happen multiple times in a row. So to me it sounds like the DPH "high" puts you in this state of lucid dreaming.
When you almost end yourself for tic tok (setious note why is this happening so much more often, do people just go like "drinking a million gallons of sleep/alergy meds go brr and then i get famous quick and easy 😎" like, THAT'S NOT HOW IT WORKS, how. Sure, maybe you get famous, but not in the way you want, you don't get tictok famous, you get hospital/chubbyemu famous...
Don’t forget, there were teenagers eating dishwasher pellets once. I mean.....

This shit isn't new. The issue is that now they're doing it within full view of the world trying to gain fame, instead of doing it in their friend's backyard with the shady parents that don't care what happens. The number of idiots is the same as it has always been, what's changed is the level of exposure.
it is not worth 5 minutes of fame
Being chubbyemu-famous is like winning a free ticket for the euthanasia coaster

I remember in 2009 I was addicted to benadryl and my highest dose was #50 25mg benadryl. It was a morbidly painful fever dream, I couldn't stop moving my legs they would hurt. This was all happening at the dollar theater watching ji joe .
Last thing I remember. Then I'm waking up on the roof of a church. I was 13
What happened to kids just smoking weed 😂
@@betrayal6231 idk
question i used to take 200mg a night as sleep aid, any tips on how this could have effected my body and mind?
You do see such an excellent presentation each time! You use proper medical terminology, but you explain what the word are, even breaking down the components of the worst to demonstrate. You explain things in a concise, clear way, that medical people can integrate into their own knowledge base, as well as giving examples so the non-medical people have an understanding. And your no, I don't think it's funny, approach to some of the dangers of these meds or medical conditions or syndromes, is spot-on in asking people maybe think before they do something or make people perhaps better understand their own medical situations or those of a loved one or freind. Very impressive. Thanks so much!😊😊😊😊😊❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

I love this channel! I'm considering going to med school so I can understand more than 3% of what he says.
Oh Sir, your speech about histamine response is so beautiful.
I thought this was gonna be a meme video then I realized it’s serious now I can’t tell the difference between parody’s and real life.
i used to be very dependent/addicted to DPH, still struggle with it. the feeling of detachment and numbness was why i did it. worst period of my life
💤🛏
There was a guy I worked with at a machine shop some years back. Every day at lunch his mom and dad would drop off a couple of boxes of benadryl. He would eat both boxes before break was over and then go back to work. Well, one day about the end of shift he got his hand caught in a drill press. I don't remember seeing him at work after that.
Had the worst trips when I was in my late teens/early 20s with Benadryl. The fact that TikTok is making is making it a trend now is so crazy.
These kids aren’t doing anything new. I was an idiot when I was their age but I wasn’t incentivized do it or do any more than I actually did.
Thank you for making these videos. It’s always dangerous to do stuff like that. I’m fortunate I never did any permanent damage to myself, but dosing that much just for internet clout is so damaging
Deliriants aren't exactly generally taken for fun in the first place, on top of the issues gone into with Benadryl. Strong altered states have the potential to be traumatic even if you do know what you're going into, saw a few other comments talking about being scarred and it's not surprising. Make your own decisions on what you take for fun but do your research, always
I think deliriants are fun.
Diphenhydramine overdose also causes complete psychosis, so assessing the patient is that much more difficult. It's quite unpleasant and people often are reacting to hallucinated stimuli of various levels of horrifying, depending on how they got to the hospital in the first place.
I love your channels, good doctor. Ty
I'm glad I saw this. I have been taking so much benadryl and have to stop. this will help for sure. I take it only to try to sleep but it really doesn't work well and most the time makes me throw up
Also there’s the part we’re it’s a deliriant so you see things that aren’t there and can’t tell reality from fiction, but I guess that wasn’t important
The depth of human knowledge is available at the end of a 40-character URL, and people choose to drink Benadryl. As Murtaugh used to say, *"I'm gettin' too old for this sh-t."* Thanks doc.
Basketball-sized spiders made of water and tiny bugs crawling on everything are some of the things you will see if you abuse DPH.
man i didnt even know you had this channel until you posted that poll on your other channel. great stuff man i could listen to you nerd out on this stuff all day. you should link the corresponding video to the story vids on your other channel for sure.
My old lady took it as prescribed for decades for allergies and as an occasional sleep aid. She developed dementia in her mid 50's and is now dying in a hospice and doesn't recognize me or anyone else anymore. That stuff does a number on your brain over years of regular prescribed use too.
Everything does
@@Name..........not necessarily, not all prescription meds have an effect on your cognitive functions like how anticholinergics do bc it's actively messing with a chemical needed for certain brain functions (memory is a biggie for acetylcholine)
Yes! It’s frequently listed as a medication that causes dementia. 😞. I’m so sorry! 🙏🏼❤️🙏🏼
no, not everything gives you dementia in ur 50s. that's fucked up@@Name..........
yrs ago i took benedryl as a sleep aid. i started w the recommended dosage of 2. over the course of that first year i gradually increased the dosage until i was at a total of 20 or more per night, not all at once. i upped the dosage to 3 pills every 2 hours until i could no longer stay awake at which point i would have taken a lil over 20 pills. i got so good at fighting off the drowsiness. there was a pleasurable rush that happened at about an hour after each dose. it was like clockwork; i could time the dose on the hour and expect the rush to happen in an hour. the rush lasted only a few short mins. my heart would race and i felt good and sexually aroused. im not sure if thats why i kept doing it as i was always in such a daze. when i tried to quit cold turkey i made it about 26 hours before i caved due to withdrawals which were severe. extreme nausea, clammy, massive headache. i weaned myself off it over a few mos span. the label said "non habit forming".
Stay connected on these servers, you will get deep long sleep!!
Keep making videos. I really like them.
The used to sell it as sleeping meds too. I had horrible insomnia for a few years. My dosage kept going up over time as it had less effect. After a while the dug made me more awake more alert, like a U shaped interaction the opposite of what I was going for. At one point, I started hallucinating. It was the opposite of fun hallucination. More akin to a type of dementia.
I'm curious what is Doctor Bernard's favourite recreational drug.

@@crystalmckinney3151 Nice one! His old videos are weird af
I remembered listening to my friend when we were 19 or so, he’s like yooo bro we should go to cvs and pick up two boxes of Benadryl and get really high. I was like oh I never heard you could do that, might as well try it for bucket list. Man I’ve never been more uncomfortable in my whole life, it felt like my whole left arm and shoulder died
I use to take sleep aid everyday to sleep, til I found this page. Wow makes me think about everything I do now lol. Thank you
One of the best creators on YT ❤
when I took just 18 pills (450mg) of DPH/benadryl, wasn't because of the tiktok challenge, but i had to go to the ER. My heartrate was at 130. I had to drink 2 bottles (about 4-6 cups) of charcoal. I was close to an overdose, just by taking 450mg.
The hallucinations I got were crazy. I hallucinated people, my cat, voices, etc.. I felt extremely heavy, nauseous, and I was extremely confused. I couldn't even get undressed without help.
Don't do what I did. Not worth it at all.
i took 675 mg which was also the very first time i took benadryl and didnt hallucinate at all
i was very delirious though and even throughout the experience, i was actively looking everywhere to see if i could find a hallucination
if i did, i probably wouldnt even know, but looking back at it now, i dont think anything was strange
um...130bpm is a VERY normal heart rate.
You weren't close to an od. You were just experiencing negative effects.
I can't believe I forgot to subscribe to heme review :O
Consider that fixed xD
Всё чётко и по делу, спасибо большое 💜
Great. Another product I frequently use will be hard to buy now. Thanks.
I have taken up to 300mg and it was...uncomfortable. It’s a deliriant not a hallucinogen, so you experience things that aren’t actually there instead of enhancing the things that are. You hear shit, have full conversations with people who aren’t there, and your eyes get so dry you are constantly rubbing them and can’t see anything, you feel like you have to pee but can’t; in general it’s just not much fun.
I know you probably wanna keep your channel varied in its tox reports, but id really like to hear your opinions on the "new" wave of nootropics which PROMOTE the synthesis and reception of acetylcholine. I'm interested in medicine, and specifically pharmacology, so the benadryl and coffee epidodes are by far my fav. I'd love to see some more coverage on pharmacological induced toxicity, and general breakdowns of pharmacology. I'm too poor for college/med school so hundreds of hours of reading PDFs and wikipedia and your channel are all the teaching ive recieved.
Thank you so much for this video, this explain so much more than any of the doctors would tell me, they wouldn't really tell me anything at all
Tw: benadryl near death experience || i overdosed on benadryl (suicide attempt) and i have nightmares of how it started to affect me, it made me swollen and shaky, it made me super thirsty, horribly nauseous but also could not throw up, my heart rate increased and increased, and when it really started to take affect they had to revive me in the ambulance and i remember floating outside my body watching them do that, and then everything was black for a while and then i heard panic, my blood sugar dropped below 40, little alarms were going off, and i was starting to seize, then emptiness again, and then i woke up a few days later in the icu, the walls were moving and purple (in reality they were beige and red i think?), There were these weird giant bubbles everywhere, and the hat man was in the corner, and then I'd just sleep and wake up sleep and wake up until eventually i atleast wasn't hallucinating anymore but was still a bit out of it, just standing up my heart rate would get into the 170s and the doctor would come in and yell at me, and over the course of the next few weeks i could barely get up or do anything because of my heart, eventually i got to the point where i could walk slowly, and over the last year to the point where i can walk decently long but I'll have to take times to slow down a bit from a normal pace to a pretty leisurely pace, i also have a lot of memory problems now so i don't remember a lot of things that have happened and i have a lot of time gaps, i just remember like pictures here and there, benadryl is just not fun, don't do more than the recommended dose.
HELL NAHH!!! SPUNCH BOP TOOK 40 BENADRYLS...
A few months ago I had a really bad combination skin problem thanks to a new toner I was using. No matter what I tried, the dryness wouldn't go away. I was so desperate to get my normal skin back that I turned to Google for answers (NEVER do that). One artical said to put a moisturizer on your face and than lots of petroleum, so I did just that. A few hours later, my skin was starting to go numb. My mom brought me to the ER since we thought I was having some kind of allergic reaction to the moisturizer. Turns out my face couldn't breathe due to all the petroleum I put over the moisturizer. The doctor
gave me some wipes to clean everything off my face. A few minutes later, my skin went back to being very dry. The doctor noticed this and prescribed me to take 2 Benadryl and 2 Pepcid everyday for about a week. I followed the instructions and my skin started to return back to normal. In about 3 to 4 days, my skin looked and felt completely normal. Long story short, don't abuse a drug that can help you. Always follow label institutions or instructions by doctors on how to take it.
If anybody that's reading this, has a similar condition to mine, and wants to attempt this. Let me clarify some things. First, take the 1 Benadryl and 1 Pepcid in the morning and do the same thing before you go to bed at night. Second, space out the pills by 3 to 5 minutes, I recommend taking the Benadryl first. Third, DON'T PICK AT YOUR SKIN, your skin will start to peel, but only peel it if it comes off as one big flake, if you pick at a spot that isn't ready to come off yet, it will get even more dry and inflamed. Forth and final, when you start this process, stop everything you're used to doing, cleansers, moisturizers, EVERYTHING, for the first few days, wash your face with just water, you can also use water as the moisturizer by grabbing a soaked rag and dabbing it on your face, after the first few days, you can ease back into a moisturizer, and then back to a cleanser.
yeah it can be helpful. However a reason its so hated is that even at recommended doses it causes negative effects, such as raising the chance of developing dementia.
@@TheQueenOfTrash Thanks. I really appreciate your story!
You really had nothing to contribute but decided to anyway. Sometimes a like is all that’s needed because this was so off the point.
When I was in college I had severe insomnia, and a lot had to do with adderall, and just having horrible anxiety, dreading to go to school the next day. At one point even GHB wasn't enough to make me knock out some nights. I gradually upped the dose of benadryl to 15, 18, even 21 some nights. Gaining a huge tollerance allowed me to take that many pills, with the effects of only 3 or 4 to the normal person. It can be a useful sleep aid to many people, but being dependant on pills isn't a great way to live. Even today I take Elavil, Guanfacine, Wellbutrin, Zoloft, and just recently added Subutex to the list. Anyways, a warning to anyone who takes Benedryl and is not used to the medicine, do NOT attempt to drive on any dose at all, until you know how it effects you. Even if you feel like you can drive ok on 2 or 3 pills, does not meen you can drive ok on 4. Be careful out there. Sorry for the rant
I take 2 benadryl every night whenever I take my adhd medicine because it gives me hella insomnia. I also have abused it a few times before. I'm kinda want to stop, but I also don't want to lie awake for hours every night
@@dkis8730 there are also sleep medications without addictive properties and that the body won't build tolerance against like for example melatonin
I don't take drugs of any sort except methylphenidate it can shorten your life span by 13 years
A 25mg dose of DPH is equivalent to .1 blood-alcohol concentration. If you drive on only one pill, you can get charged with a DUI.
@@evanb4189 yeah, i really wouldn't recommend it...
Thanks Dr. you may have saved a life. Someone who is dear to me
As a very allergic child I was given Benadryl. It was so miserable to feel tired and unable to think clearly that I tried hard not to be allergic. I think it made it difficult for me to learn. God bless the people who came up with better antihistamines.
Find an allergy doctor who specializes in immunotherapy. I've been almost allergy free for years
Unrelated to the challenge, my indirect-experience with Benadryl was a suicide attempt by a friend. I remember disregarding professional help at first because I’ve never heard of somebody overdosing on Benadryl (mind you I was around 15). As I was researching the side effects, I realized how seriously wrong I was and reading lethal symptoms that can lead to seizures and death. It was at that moment that I demanded my friend to seek help immediately. When they successful did, they immediately suffered from a seizure that ended with broken bones. What I can tell you is my friend survived because they sought help and is still living to this day.
I know it’s easy to dismiss a household medicine and minimize the harmful effects, but it’s not something that can be played with. Smoke weed or drink booze like other burnouts if you must. Learn your limits and moderation is key, but Benadryl is a stupid shortcut for a high.
Regarding sleeping pills and "dirty" medication, I've never ever understood why my country and many others have a tendency to prescribe _quetiapine_ and mirtazapine, and even olanzapin as a first line of medications to insomnia.
I mean, they'll knock you out for sure but they do SO much more too.
If that's the case, then even a hammer would help in insomnia if you hit yourself hard enough.
i've always thought doctors were insane for prescribing an atypical antipsychotic for SLEEP
what is the problem with quetiapine? is that bad?
Thank you for telling the truth about some of these stupid challenges.
I used to love watching the other channel until very suddenly they’d trigger my anxiety and I’d be stuck with this horrible feeling of not being able to trust my body, these ones are slightly less terrifying seeing as it’s down to silly decisions jajaja
DPH abuse seems to be very common because of easy access, like robitussin.
@Peter Rabbit stupid internet points. I can't comprehend how stupid people can be. as a "kid" i'll confirm we are stupid but some just take the trophy lol.
@TRIX TRIX I was aware, it was just a commonality I noticed. Easy to access, no background checks or prescriptions required to get them, and easier to steal as well because it is an over the counter medication.
Meh, unless youre fucked in the head you do it once or twice and learn better than to trip on dph. Similar with salvia, nutmeg, and datura. Its what you do when youre young and bored and no access to real drugs.
This is good.
Keep taking Benadryl TikTok.
Take a lot more of it please.

Benadryl directions: take 2 tablets by mouth
Me: I am only taking one of these tablets and it suppresses my allergies enough
Yeay a sensible user!

as somebody who did this while younger, the "buzz" is awful. it's pure panic and psychosis. you will destroy your house and be completely useless for hours to days.
Actually, one time I almost took too much Benadryl by accident. I was having a bad allergic reaction, but I took a bit too much. I got too drowsy and it was hard to stay awake. For anyone that reads this, please be careful when taking Benadryl
Yah I took 40 pills to kill myself once and I ended up becoming so delusional that I walked to my school at 6am on a Saturday and was talking to nobody. Also have extreme arachnophobia after hallucinating hundreds of spiders crawling in my clothes
Bro didn’t even mention the hat man
i can’t believe he didnt bring up the hat man
Facts lol him and his spider army would be disappointed
You are spectacularly brilliant and interesting.
I used to take like 4 at a time to sleep through the days but thankfully I never had serious long term issues
oh hell nah, tiktokers took 40 benadryls
I'm still wondering why DPH is still being sold today as OTC when it is already replaced by much safer and effective 2nd and 3rd generation antihistamine drugs like Loratidine and Fexofenadine which is also an OTC drug. I think DPH should only be used when there's no other antihistamine drugs or only during emergencies and not as an OTC drug....
It's not sold OTC in Europe. Loratadine and cetirizine all the way.
Because DPH works best for people like me. Loratidine does jack shit for me, and trying fexofenadine could kill me.
@@anname7373 You can still get a prescription if it wasn't otc, it's just so dumb kids can't get it
@@toppie34 I often need two benadryl every four hours to control reactions. I'm not sure they'd give me enough for that.
I take it whenever I have food allergies, saves me from an incessantly itchy tounge/throat/inside of ears. I have never really gotten any lasting side effects. Yeah, it makes me very, very, sleepy, but for me, that usually lasts around 3 hours at the most. I also take one if I have a lot of trouble sleeping, and I'm usually able to wake up at the same time I usually do without any sort of "hangover". I'm pretty wary of using it and i would NEVER take that stuff regularly/every night or recreationally abuse it, but at least for me, it's better than any sort of habit-forming sleep inducer and acts much faster than anything like fexofenadine. I don't take it for regular seasonal allergies (I use phenylephrine and fexofenadine for that, because I usually know ahead of time when I'll have those allergies) because I don't want to be knocked out at 10 AM, but it seems to be working pretty well for me as something to take occasionally when needed, because it works very fast and very well.
In the “behavioral hospital” they gave us Benadryl if we couldn’t sleep
Diphenhydramine abuse gave me serious regular panic attacks, even years after quitting. While using, I got very anxious and restless, very itchy, went down deep dark holes in my mind, and heard people and noises that weren’t there and I thought something or someone was coming for me.
It made me think I would forget to breathe and die. I would feel like my soul was being kicked out of my body. I would just become convinced I was going to die any minute, not helped by my insanely fast heartbeat and delirious hallucinations. I couldn’t pee and my mouth was bone dry and drinking was terrifying cause I could feel it go down and nausea would ensue.
The afterglow made me feel so wrong and I feared that my brain would be permanently destroyed and that I’d always be stuck in this drug induced purgatory. Panic attacks would continue for months. The only reason I used was to feel something or feel different and at least the horror I experienced wasn’t the depression I felt. Some experiences were fun or relaxing, but most were HELL.
I will never understand the glorification of this evil shit. I don’t even take it for allergies anymore.
Hydrazine challenge!
Sounds like Marshal Nedelin challenge
