A story that stuck with me was about a user who took so much benadryl regularly, that his short term memory was basically completely fucked. Said his brain always felt like it was constantly rattling in his skull.
I’d sometimes use a small dose of the stuff as a sleep aid, but I always woke up feeling awful. It’s amazing for allergies though.
Any “nighttime” cold and flu medication just has an antihistamine stuffed into the normal Tylenol, Robitussin, Mucinex “daytime” combo. The daytime used to include a decongestant, but you can make meth with Sudafed pretty trivially, and the replacement stuff did fuck all, so they pulled it from the market, so now if you’re healthy just build your own: Pain meds (Ibuprofen/Acetaminophen), an expectorant (Guaifenesin, though too much can make your stomach upset which is why it’s in everything that can be abused these days), a cough suppressant (dextromethorphan, expect to have to show an ID), and a decongestant (Pseudoephedrine, it’ll be at the pharmacy and you’ll need to show ID, but you don’t need a prescription).
I had an ex, her brothers used to trip on Benedryl. They’d eat a whole sheet. Absolutely insane.
I occasionally used to browse the DPH subreddit

There’s a high correlation between that stuff and Alzheimer’s. Be careful with it.
I came here to say this. If I remember correctly, duration of usage may have been important. They used to prescribe it as a sleep aide at one point.
I mean, they still do. It’s over the counter and all that stuff. But marketed as a sleep aid.

Haven’t needed it in over a year, luckily
That sub is so wild but mostly sad. A lot of self-hating people thinking they deserve to have the worst trip imaginable.
