Diphenhydramine (Benedryl, Unisom) in large doses (~500mg+) is a hallucinogen. In such doses, though, it keeps me wide awake (and very aware); why does it do that? And also it makes you feel "heavy." How can a chemical make you physically feel as if you've put on 50 pounds? Does it have to do with inner ear/equillibrium type things or is it actually muscular?
Go ahead, proceed with the scorn, contempt, jeering, reprimands for taking part in such activities, I expect it. But does anyone actually have answers to these questions?
