Diphenhydramine isn't so much a hallucinogen as it is a deliriant. Very few people who use it find it in any way pleasurable, and really the only people who choose to use it again are looking for the difficult confusing trip experience.

From Erowid's dosing chart it seems that 200mg is a common dose so I'd say you are likely to experience something. Since you don't say how long it has been since you took them (or at least what time zone you are in) that's about all the info I can give.

If you don't trip I'd count yourself as lucky and move on.

Yes I read that in your original post but as I said in my first reply I don't know what time zone you are in so saying you took it at 9 doesn't really help. Why not say how many hours it has been since you took it (the easiest option) or at the very least say where you are. That way I can figure out what time it is for you now, and then calculate how long it's been since you took it.
 
Diphenhydramine is not a psychedelic by any means. It is a delierient, and the hallucinations you may achieve are nowhere close to being enjoyable, in my experience. A common thing to see is spiders/bugs crawling over everything. Sucks when you are an arachniphobe. Before I knew much about diphen I took a large dose to try and come down from doing a lot of cocaine, and had the worst hallucinations of bugs and shadow people and shit. Horrible.

I take diphen to sleep on a regular basis, and take up to 200mg on occasion to sleep. To achieve a "trip" on it, you would probably need atleast 400mg in my experience. You may get minor hallucinations on it at lower doses, but a high dose is needed for full effect.

Many times the hallucinations are very real, and it is hard ti differentiate between reality and you hallucinations. it is common to have conversations with people who are actually not there, although theyappear to be.

I would compare it to amphetamine psychosis.. So if that's your idea of fun, then do it up.
 
I take 500mg of diphenhydramine on a fairly regular basis, (not proud of it) and have never hallucinated, but your mileage may vary and all that. Also I assume you live in the uk because sominex is a uk brand, but sominex is not diphenhyrdramine it's promethazine
 
This shit usually doesn't produce the active and colorful psychedelic visuals like shrooms, lsd etc. It can make these bizarre dark room and closed eyed visuals that are intense and almost never pleasant. Try sitting in a dark room or watching tv then closing your eyes etc. and you'll never want to be near this shit again! This is IMO one of the worst drugs to use recreationally. Get out more and meet someone who's got the shrooms or grow them yourself.

As others have said, a higher dose is usually needed to induce delirium. This is generally an unpleasant experience, just so you know. I'd suggest having someone with you to make sure you don't accidentally do anything harmful to yourself.

I'm going to move this over to Basic Drug Discussion for you since its essentially a dosing question.

Thank you for clearing that up! All the more reason everyone should use the actual chemical names rather than trade names here at BL. Its led to BIG misunderstandings more than once in the past!

I love DPH honestly it's amazing because the trips are mystical and just entertaining. I began dose around 400 mgs and that's very small if your looking for hallucinations.. they begin around 600 mgs for light weights.. and I warn you to take it slow because some black out and loose track of all reality or anything that is real. ask me.. first few times I dosed over 800... blacked out and thought the world would freeze if i didnt turn on the crock pot.
Erowid says that blackouts are common around 800 + and is not good for the heart.


its like this at 600 mgs... you'll be talking to someone .. for to long and daze off and be looking at them.. thinking who the hell is that ? then when you snap out of it you'll be like oh wow... how goofy. 700 mgs you may not recognize what room your in or you'll be all alone and start talking to someone who you thought you seen out of the corner of your eye and realize no one is there... just weird... look for sleep aids, benadryl or unisom gel caps which are usually Diphenhydramine HCL 50' mgs.

Afterglow is amazing on dph hcl
