Can tobacco reduce a benadryl hangover?

A question to those of you who have tried:
can tobacco reduce a benadryl hangover? If so, does it only reduce the hangover while you're smoking, or can it even increase it once you've finished a smoking session?

Also, can benadryl reduce the strength or nausea of a tobacco buzz?
To me, they seem somewhat opposite in their effects (nicotine is a cholinergic agonist, after all), so I'd guess they'd weaken many of each others' effects and give the user the impression of becoming less intoxicated. Then again, both cause delirium.

I am pretty sure a smoke would make a benadryl 'hangover' worse but I am not sure. However, can you please just not use benadryl recreationally, thats pretty stupid.

I don't see why a benadryl wouldn't relieve nausea from a smoke, but if you still get nausea from tobacco, that means you've just started smoking. I can't believe I'm saying this, but I would suggest quitting while your ahead. I'm 18 and can barely breath.

The nausea used to be pretty severe but now it's subtle unless I chain-smoke a bunch of them. I agree, recreational benadryl use is very stupid, but I wasn't using it recreationally. I couldn't fall asleep so I took two zopiclone tablets and still couldn't sleep, so I took eight benadryls, then decided I needed two more because of my tolerance (I used 3-6 to fall asleep for about a week because I ruined the sleep-inducing potential of Z-drugs and benzodiazepines by abusing them for a few months). Today's hangover is actually not that bad, but I thought I'd still ask the question for other times I may have one, and simply because I'm curious.

I am trying to quit everything while I'm ahead, but it's not easy to simply quit after smoking so much weed and taking so many benzos. I was "warned" that I should quit smoking weed while I was ahead and I acknowledged the warning, but I didn't have enough self-control. It's caused me a fair bit of suffering. I know where you're coming from, but at this point those comments aren't very helpful as it's now a matter of self-control and withdrawal-softening rather than lack of knowledge or thinking the drug is good for me.
Thanks anyway.
