Diphenhydramine/nytol/benadryl OD can actually work

[lan11]

Basically a few years ago, I OD'd on diphenhydramine and I ended up on a ventilator in icu after having seizures.

I was reading my medical notes and it said I couldn't maintain my own airway and had blood and sick in my mouth. So if I hadn't been found, I probably would have aspirated on my own vomit/blood and died. Meanwhile, I was completely unconscious, didn't feel a thing, I was out like a light.

I probably just got really lucky with my experience (or maybe unlucky cause I'm still alive) but I didn't experience the scary hallucinations and wasn't awake for any of it.

Only reason I haven't done it again is because I struggle to swallow more than a few pills now.

So yeah, maybe it's not as impossible as people say it is.

Not impossible and tbh not even hard to do. Been looking into it (scientific articles on fatality cases) and its one of my top ways to go tbh

do you remember how many you took?

It's not always the same for everyone hun. I overdosed on 3000mg of benadryl and was in and out of consciousness for 3 days. I had multiple seizures and was also in the ICU.

It's a very problematic method because of the chances of survival that and the long term effects after survival.

OD'ing can work, but it's a very case to case scenario generally, or at least with pharmaceutical drugs. It can depend on previous medical issues or undetected conditions or health risks. It's not something that should be attempted on a whim I guess.

Hope it left you with no outstanding medical issues.

No sorry but I think it has to be a lot

I was lucky I didn't have any physical health problems after it

Zopiclone are much more powerful than Diphenhydramine. I blacked out on just two of those.........and combined with being under water. Benadryl is waste of time

I personally wouldn't use it as a method unless I was desperate but I do have a little Benadryl snack every day.

I've eaten upwards of a gram at a time and was blacking out but didn't die and it was also terrifying because I had forgotten I took anything and was hearing loud voices everywhere I wouldn't count on dph.

can you link the benadryl fatality cases you've found? i'm also looking into diphenhydramine as a serious method. i feel like as long as you do it in an isolated area or somewhere secluded in your car, then you won't be found and brought to the hospital. when i was looking into myself a lot of ODs have failed because they were found by family members or someone saw them passed out. i think that people legitimately can die from dph if they overdose on it.

benadryl and benadryl mixed with dxm is the only OTC drug you can overdose on nowndays. alcohol works too but it isnt OTC unless your over 18 if your under 18 you must steal it
