[Erowid Note: The author of this report erroneously refers to Benadryl as dimenhydrinate.]

T:00

I ingest 18 Benadryl 25mg Dimenhydrinate + 30mg sublingual of codeine for a little mellowness. Totally empty stomach

T:05

Put on Nirvana-Nevermind, which usually puts me in a good mood. I heard dmhyd makes music sound different in a weird sort of way.

T:10

Feel a bit sleepy, It's already around my bedtime anyway. I decided to do it around when I was tired, since I didn't want to take it during the day, only to fall asleep during the middle of the day and screw up my sleeping schedule.

T:15

Feeling a little more sleepy. I already feel the subtle effects of codeine, sort of warm feelings. I can almost feel the benadryl digesting now, it will probably be coming on soon.

T:20

I grab a pepsi and start drinking it. The music I'm listening to seems a little more hollow. I feel a slight euphoria, a little light-headed and sort of warm. Probably just the codeine again.

T:25

Feeling fuzzy headed. Sort of dizzy now and heavy. More tired.

T:30

Feel very blank headed, my thought process is very slow now. Very off-kilter. The sleepiness is getting worse. Time seems to be going slower.

T:35

Time is going by VERY SLOWLY now. 1 minute feels like 20 minutes now. Feeling a new sort of euphoria rising, a very small body high, and it doesn't feel like the codeine this time. The pepsi is becoming tasteless and my tongue is moving very slowly.

T:40

Nothing new. Just even more sleepy.

T:45

I have been sitting down the whole time, so I decided to walk around and see how it is. Very heavy legs and arms. Getting harder to type and think. Stomach feeling sort of queasy. A little more euphoria, I can definitely tell its not the Codeine.

T:50

Taste buds are almost totally gone. Really tired and out of it, don't know if I can continue documenting OMG saw my first hallucinotgetic. A flash of green on the wall for about a second. It's getting hard to swallow.

T:55

So sleeepyy. Very mindless. Might fall asleep.

T:60

Feeling very fucking woozy, very tired. A little hard to breathe now, but nothing serious.

T:65

Almost nodded off. No hallucinations yet except for that green flash awhile back.

T:70

Still NOTHING! I thought this would be enough time for it to kick into effect of a deleriant.

T:80

Ingested a 12 pack of 25mg, bringing my total too 750mg now. I thought maybe the dose I took wasn't enough for the deleriant experiance.

T:85

Sleepiness has seemed to pass. Getting more of a buzz at least. Almost like Codeine, but a lot weaker. Thank god. I have to wait another half an hour to see if I get some hallucinations.

T:90

Nothing has changed. I'm really surprised that I didn't fall asleep. I usually fall asleep with a half of a Benadryl.

T:95

I'm surprised, but I'm getting a little more euphoria. It feels like I took about 60-80 mg of codeine. A warmness in my body is evident when I move around. Feels good, but a little less pronounced than opiates.

T:100

Even more opiate like euphoria. Man I should definitely mix this with a lot of codeine next time. As I'm writing this, I am now feeling rushes of warmth. It couldn't of been brought up by the codeine i had earlier because I never got this kind of a buzz off 30 mg of codeine.

T:105

Still no hallucinations. I'm defintely really fucking out of it right now. I'm hoping to see a nude woman pop out of nowhere lol. I was laughing at that for 3 minutes straight. Feeling a little crazy.

T:110

Very dissapointed now. It's not working. And wow, I swear this euphoria is pretty good. Uh oh, as I'm typing this i'm goin insanae. My mind is turning into a fuzz and mixing stuff up.

T:115

Not talking like myself any more. There seems to be milli-second of time between when I say something, and when gets out. Its really funny to talk. Very hollow sounding.

T:120

I am WAYYY fucked up right now. Saying weird things and doing them. Almost no control over what I say or do.

T:125

I said lemon round pie is a pie (talking to my self) and some other phrase. For no reason. Oh my god, I can barely write any more, I'm in a daze of stupor.

T:130

My mind is gone right now. Not thinking at all.

T:135

Every television show is sort of warping into another. I'm losing it. I popped a 10 mg dose of valium, because I'm very ansty and don't want a bad trip

Lost track of time. I am messed completely. Its like getting piss drunk. I'll continue with my experiences:

If I lay back, I will instantly drift out and sleep. And I just thought that this notepad document I wrote it on was a goddam webpage, how strange.

Now I'm fading in and out over and over again. My body still has a glow.

I think I heard an audio illusion from somewhere, hmm probably not.

My stomach is queasy, and time is passing by REALLY SLOW! I think slower than marijuana. I can barely cmmunicate here. I am so out of it. I'm wat

DMX - which company makes the d

(note I edited everything but this last sentence before posting it, just to show how messed up I was at the end. I spelled a lot of words incorrectly and my grammar was off, but at the end nothing made sense.)

After I woke up I still had the hollow voice sound and the general Benadryl hangover. Its a very depressing one at that.
