    I’ve never tried them but I’ve tried most other things in my crazier years and from what I understand from obsessive drug researching, taking high doses of Benadryl or other deliriants is not fun and is dysphoric rather than euphoric but some people like doing it anyway for some bizarre reason

    Edit: the DPH subreddit is an interesting ride to read through: https://old.reddit.com/r/DPH/

      They keep on doing it because it’s an addictive substance and/or as a form of self harm, unfortunately. Benadryl is very cheap and easy to get, so troubled teenagers try it looking for a break from reality, thinking hallucinogens are all similar. Then they often get stuck taking it every day, destroying their health. It’s very sad.
