I've heard promethazine (seasick or allergy pills) can have psychedelic effects much like weed numerous times but only ever used them for their actual purpose taking 1-2 at a time but after an ongoing lack of internet and smoking for 3 months I got extremely bored and decided to give this myth a test.
I started off by easily downing 8 tabs at once with a cup of water.
7:00am - ingested 8 pills
7:30am - I sat down to watch some TV but had not yet noticed any difference
7:45am - I was on my computer and began to play a game when I very slowly felt like i was moving backwards in my chair and that my hands were becoming less a part of me, my depth perception was pretty much gone after 5 minutes of this and i could not tell whether or not my screen was on my face or several metres away
9:00am - The entire experience so far was pleasant and mild being at a heavily buzzed sense of mind
9:30am - This was the point where it began to increase 10 fold, within a 10 minute space of time it went from mildly buzzed to fuck the world i'm outa here
9:45am - I was unable to distinguish the difference between reality and thought and on several occasions believed I was doing what i was thinking, i was very thirsty and wanted milk and kept believing i was actually getting up to get it only to realise i was still sitting down
4:00pm - Over the past 6 hours this lack of distinguishing reality and thought continued on several occasions. At this point in time my body was completely warn out and i was confined to only my bed
4:30pm - Because promethazine has a drowsy after effect I had an extreme urge to go to sleep early in the afternoon
5:00pm - I finally fell asleep
Waking up the next day could well be one of the best feelings I have ever had and having tried numerous other psychedelic drugs I would highly NOT recommend attempting this one as the strange reality distortion that I experienced was not a pleasant one.
If you're very VERY bored and have a couple days spare time then you could try it, but this is the kind of thing you only ever do once then remind yourself how dumb it was years later
