Because that shit will fuck you up. For life. It's scary how so many of the really dangerous recreational drugs are so easily available while the arguably-less-harmful (and, yes, all drugs have potential for harm) are completely illegal.

lsd my beloved :( ostracised because they had to put hippies in prison for something. schedule I with no medical uses my ass too, that ban stopped every ongoing research into how lsd could help in psychiatry, and though research wasn't finished it sure as hell didn't look like it was useless. The US drug enforcement administration lied in nearly every single part of their statement following the ban

US Government: "A substance that makes people more empathetic? This could destroy the American way of life!"

[-] shneancy@lemmy.world 31 points 2 months ago

bruh you have no idea how correct you are on that

"By the mid-1960s the backlash against the use of LSD and its perceived corrosive effects on cultural values resulted in governmental action to restrict the availability of the drug by making use of it illegal.[29]"

now let's all have a sit down and think about the state of the "cultural values" if feeling love towards your fellow human beings, and jamming to music is somehow corrosive to them... just- i have no idea how people fell for that bullshit

Quick LSD anecdote: LSD literally reminded me what actual happiness feels like. I've struggled with depression for much of my life and had a stretch of about a decade where my mood never rose above the level of "meh" and was often much worse than that. LSD filled me with joy and allowed me to feel happiness again even after I came back down.

For that reason I will forever be an LSD advocate.

Its crazy how stuff like this is legal and teens used to go to gas stations to buy shit like k2 and saliva.

[-] Presently42@lemmy.ca 9 points 2 months ago

Teens buy saliva nowadays? Idk, maybe it's my advancing millennial age, but why would anyone buy saliva? Blech 🤢

Here's the nursing school pharase for anticholinergic side effects: Can't see, can't pee, can't spit, can't shit. Doctors tend to use: red as a beet, dry as a bone, blind as a bat, mad as a hatter, hot as a hare, full as a flask.

If going through that just to also be able to hallucinate sounds appealing to you, go for it.

[-] shneancy@lemmy.world 52 points 2 months ago

just eat some psychedelics like a normal person the worst those can do is shatter your image of self and then rebuild it, oh and sometimes your muscles can ache a little afterwards because flexing them felt amazing

[-] roguetrick@lemmy.world 19 points 2 months ago

I think it should be pointed out that some traditional psychoactive drugs (such as datura) work the same was (they're potent anticholinergics) and you'd have to be nuts to use them.

[-] amw3i7dwgoblinlabs@lemmy.world 23 points 2 months ago

Scopolamime is a deleiriant not a hallucinogen, it is not fun or recreational at all, don't do it kids

[-] sneezycat@sopuli.xyz 22 points 2 months ago

Not a psychedelic*. It very much is a hallucinogen.

[-] dharmacurious@slrpnk.net 8 points 2 months ago

Any advice on getting decent info for someone considering beginning that particular journey?

[-] Zoboomafoo@slrpnk.net 10 points 2 months ago

As an alternative to psychedelics, you can reach the same states through meditation. With modern techniques you won't even need to sit under a tree for 49 days.

[-] shneancy@lemmy.world 11 points 2 months ago

technically you can but that's going to take you roughly 100 times longer and might not work at all

Well, here's some personal experience.

Back in my teens, I had a nasty bout of sinus issues, stemming from allergies.

This was in the late eighties, and Benadryl was pretty much what everyone had. It was the default antihistamine.

So, with my dad at work, and my mom needing to handle shit, I just grabbed some supplies and holed up in my room.

Took a dose and then napped. Woke up, took the next dose, napped again.

This cycle continued for two days. Or so I thought.

I woke up at one point with he-man leaning out of the screen of the TV and talking some crazy shit. The walls were breathing, and the rug on the floor was crawling away.

Now, I don't know how long I lay there just watching everything wiggle and squirm into and out of other dimensions, but my mom got home and brought me the drink I had asked for. She had left about three hours before.

To my best estimate, I took something like eight or ten of the damn things. I know I took at least six. There were two pills to a dose, and I could remember taking three doses for sure, but there were five of the blister packs empty, one of which might have been taken by my dad the week before, nobody could remember if it was from that box or the other we had. During all the dosing and sleeping, I thought it was days, and that makes the five doses a decent likelihood.

It was. . . Interesting.

For several days, I was loopy as hell. Not high, just kinda floating through life. And my dreams were even crazier than usual (I've always had intense dreams, still do) for about a week

Benadryl and wu-tang have that in common, they ain't nothing to fuck with.

[-] Kit@lemmy.blahaj.zone 63 points 2 months ago

Do not fuck with benadryl. Do not even take it for allergies.

[-] IoSapsai@lemm.ee 38 points 2 months ago

Eh one every now and then is fine, I take it for motion sickness when going on long car rides. Half a pill is enough. Then again, taking enough to get nightshade-like poisoning is really not recommended.

[-] candyman337@sh.itjust.works 33 points 2 months ago

Long term use has now been linked to neurological issues, it crosses the blood brain barrier. However, yes occasional use is relatively safe. But it is not recommended as a daily antihistamine at all these days.

Take 50 of them and you'll be seeing the god you believe in

Shit, you'll see the gods, they don't believe in.

Been taking this stuff most of my life for allergies, can confirm it does exactly none of that lol.

[-] BreadOven@lemmy.world 25 points 2 months ago

Not at the medicinal dose. I think you need to eat like a whole insert of pills.

[-] Madison420@lemmy.world 27 points 2 months ago

25, also don't. It's legit one of the craziest trips I've ever had and it's highlighted by the fact that nearly everyone that does it will tell you it was crazy and powerful but don't do it.

No one should spend multiple hours having full on conversations with people that aren't there, it's deeply unpleasant to watch from the outside and I've been on both sides.

I had it for allergy issues, particularly when I was a kid. I never experienced anything like the listed symptoms

[-] Shortstack@reddthat.com 48 points 2 months ago

Yeah that's because you took it as directed like you're supposed to

[-] RudeOnTuesdays@lemmy.world 19 points 2 months ago

Does Benadryl affect people differently? I've been taking this all my life, and all it does is stop my allergic reactions and put me to sleep. Some people are talking like they dropped acid.

[-] TacoNot@mander.xyz 29 points 2 months ago

A "recreational" dose is somewhere around 300 to 600 mg. Note, that it is definitely not a fun experience.

[-] thermal_shock@lemmy.world 14 points 2 months ago

holy shit, those are only 10mg, I cut them in half for the dog during pollen season.

I get the opposite from sleep. I wake up as if I took a stimulant. I get nervous, anxious, and energetic. I hate taking Benadryl.

The amount of people in here thinking that this happens on a prescribed dose for some other people is concerning

[-] Corkyskog@sh.itjust.works 22 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

It enhances sleep deprivation. A 100mg dose on 36 hours no sleep will likely reveal the shadow people, a 50 mg dose on 48 hours no sleep will very likely reveal the shadow people, a 25 mg on 72 hours no sleep will almost definitely reveal the shadow people... if they haven't already revealed themselves.

You do not want to meet the shadow people. Not because they are exceptionally creepy, but because it probably means some amount of brain damage, and they will never completely go away after.

I used to hang out on the dph subreddit and it was one of my favorite drug subs. A little bit depressing because of the side effects and how many of them had already suffered significant brain damage though.

I miss the drug subs like /dph or /heroin. I read them for years since these very much interest me— there’s so much of the human experience I will never try— but I fear permanent side effects and am not much of the drug type anymore. If only I could try it and rewind time with the memories intact.

Plus the dph memes are great.
