DOSE:
  IV Diphenhydramine (liquid)
BODY WEIGHT: 193 lb
Not Worth It (Cliched, but True)

I opened 4 25 mg capsules and shook the powder into some water. I mixed it around, then injected about a tenth of it into my elbow. After about a half hour, I had a throbbing headache, and I was racked with chills. I started going delirious, but unpleasantly so. After about three hours of this torture, the 104.3 fever that I had developed finally started going down, and the headache was gone.

There were no pleasant effects, and the hell that I went through has put me off diphenhydramine for life, even though this was the only time that I had injected it.
