Misc Should there be "plateaus" for diphenhydramine (like with DXM)?

After using diph dozens of times (at varying doses), I've realized that it's a very versatile drug, and can be used as a simple downer, a heavy-duty deliriant, or anywhere in between.

In the interest of providing people with a more accurate description of the drug's effects in relation to dosage, I propose something along the lines of this (doses roughly estimated):

**First Plateau:**
80 mg - 250 mg: Noticeable sedation, mild hypnotic effects. User will move at a much slower pace.

**Second Plateau:**
250 mg - 350 mg: Heavy sedation, moderate hypnotic effects. User may have the sensation that their limbs are much heavier. User may also experience mild hallucinations (i.e. "flickering"), but nothing too apparent.

**Third Plateau:**
350 mg - 450 mg: All the effects of second plateau but with intense hypnotic effects. In addition, the user may have moderate hallucinations of both a visual and auditory nature (i.e. hearing voices). Some anxiety may be present.

**Fourth Plateau:**
450 mg +: All the effects of third plateau, but to a much higher degree. Moderate to vivid hallucinations are present (i.e. talking to people who aren't there). User may experience noticeable anxiety/dysphoria. These effects become more apparent as dose increases.
 
Thanks for this, OP! I'm sure this varies somewhat with the doser's body weight. I'm wondering, however, if a tolerance builds up after repeated use? SWIM has built such a tolerance for DXM that no dose has any effect anymore. I wonder if this would effect the necessary dose of diphenhydramine as well? Only time will tell for SWIM, I suppose.

fourth plateau benadryl will fuck you up brooski
 
Jesus, bendryl was the first thing I ever got high off, back when I was a kid. It left me extremely delirious and intensely confused. I remember spider webs, an eerie, consuming red atmosphere, and not being able to piss for days afterwards.

It's a versatile drug, but definitely not anything recreational....Using it to potentiate opiates is one of it's most well loved uses, but taking high-doses to get fucked up is invalid.

It only works well as a sedative/anxiolytic in smaller doses, once you build a tolerance it becomes ineffective for that use. Trying to abuse it to achieve a high is something that only someone with absolutely no legitimate alternatives should/would ever try! I think DXM is bush-league garbage too, but even that shits better than DPH!

DPH does work well to calm you down, help you sleep and relieve certain allergic reactions at normal doses....It pretty much does everything it's supposed and nothing more...not a recreational drug....
 
I saw diphenhydramine, and plateaus and imagined taking a bunch of benadryl and for physically ill for a second.
I used to get fucked up off em.

Also yellow.
They used to make me yellow.
 
loloollll dude why is DPH so popular to abuse? i think it should be moved to behind the counter, seriously the amount of threads i see on BL about DPH is kind of pathetic

its sad because i actually use DPH for quite alot of things and i am quite fond of it for opiate potentiation. i never go above 150-200mg though, which to me is the dose i need to get threshold effects because of my tolerance. at this dose, i dont get anything out of sedation, anti-emetic properties, and anti-histamine effects, along with some tolerable mACH effects.

please odnt use dph to get high or trip, it isnt fun to use that way. dont ruin it for me or the rest of us, it has its usefulness, but is not a drug that should be used to trip. usually the point of a psychedelic trip is to gain new insight on life, not scare the living shit out of you.
