Idk why ppl do antihistamines as recreative drugs like fr

[-] Venus_Ziegenfalle@feddit.org 43 points 2 days ago

Because they're psychoactive in higher doses and readily available in lab quality. Not saying it's a good idea but that's really all it takes for something to be used as a drug.

[-] EvilHankVenture@lemmy.world 9 points 2 days ago

The lab quality bit is optional.

Why would you inflict on yourself dysphoric hallucinations on yourself if you live in a country where dextromethorphan is otc (which is not even my case, as well as antihistamines)

Broke/desperate/high schooler. Mom and dad probably won’t notice if the Benadryl goes missing. The Hat Man makes sure that you only make that mistake once.

Think about how many kids huffed banana peels because of some text file Anarchist Cookbook they found online. There are probably dumbasses that fell for jenkum.

I researched the banana peel thing in middle shcool and decided it was bullshit. Tried the oregano thing and thought I was high. Didn't try the nutmeg.

The crater makers made from empty CO2 cartridges were a lot of fun. I remember sealing them with wax and thinking about how dangerous it was having an open flame while holding something that could take off my forearm.

Never could get the iodine crystal explosive decomposition thing to work, too hard to get ahold of the precursors when I was a kid.

It's a wonder I survived, thank jeebus I couldn't get ahold of mercury.

Where the fuck were my parents?

Where the fuck were my parents?

If they were like mine, busy working. Also my parents both told us about how whenever a thermometer broke at school the teachers would show the kids how the liquid mercury felt to hold! They were both born in the early 50s.

I’m pretty sure it and leaded fuel and paint explains a lot of the boomer problems we’ve had over the decades.

Yeah, I think both of mine were working at the time as well. They also are very rigid law and order types and at that time I hadn't begun serious rebellion.

I actually saw a teacher allow kids to play with mercury when I was in highschool in the 90s. Teacher was ancient and the town was so backwards that it is still known as a sundown town to this day.

Totally buy the lead explanation for boomers. Saw an old man toss lead split weights in his mouth and put them on fishing line like tying a knot in a cherry stem.

About all those micro plastics disrupting our hormones...

How else are you supposed to meet the shadow man?

I think it's mostly a meme, but I'm sure some people might.

If I'm not mistaken they make you sleepy and drowsy
