I have motion sickness and decided to try this one day near bedtime and I slept better than I have in a long time. I tried it the next two nights and slept great as well which is unusual so this is the only thing that has worked for my sleep.
The only reason why I take this for sleep is because when I need to sleep and my body just won’t knock out, I’ll take it. But I get that it’s not something I should take every day.
I just ordered some, I’m 17 and I couldn’t sleep for 5 days now and I have exams coming up soon, so Is 1 pill enough or should I take 2 as suggested on the box
@C G yes i believe it did I had 1 pill for few days didn’t work so I had two and it eventually worked , but I also did some other stuff e.g restricted my screen time and I had hot chocolate after a cold shower every night before I went to sleep.
I'm taking it to reset my sleep schedule. I need to force myself to wake up everyday at a certain time to boost start the cycle. One pill doesn't do anything for me. I take 3 and I'm knocked out
Good info. Trying to get off benadryl too. I feel like my brain wants to sleep during the day. I get this wide awake feeling around midnight no matter how much I craved sleep all day.
This is so effective for me. Way more effective than l theanine or melatonin. I go into the office once a week so I take it only once a week the night before. The label says it won't cause dependence, and the scientific literature says the same thing.
I just took some diphenhydramine. Boy to tell you it is hitting me hard now. I almost never have problems falling asleep but I had covid, which is gone now. But a result of the covid is my sleep pattern got all messed up, from waking up a lot.
After covid the same thing happened to me very hard to sleep, using this product but afraid of addiction. But in the meantime if i dont use it i wont be able to sleep at all.
@@cduby1424 diphenhydramine is not addictive. It worked for me. But generally diphenhydramine does not have an addictive side effect. I took it for a few days and it managed to get my pattern back to normal
@@cduby1424 you mostly have nothing to worry about addiction wise, but it’s not like it has zero addictive effects. Pretty much any drug (speaking broadly, not just Rx or illicit substances) taken long enough will rewire your body chemistry to the point that, without that drug, your body isn’t in homeostasis, and you’ll have withdrawal symptoms. In my experience with diphenhydramine, the only noticeably bad withdrawal symptom was that I had a very hard time falling asleep for a few nights after I finally stopped taking it, and so that pushed me to try other options. Don’t take it for anymore than a few days at a time, and you’ll be fine. Really, they’re not joking when they say to limit the use of diphenhydramine. Take it seriously, because I didn’t, and it ended up having serious side effects: nothing life threatening to my knowledge, but it absolutely effected me cognitively and neurologically after taking it for a few months as a sleep aid. I now only take it no more than once a week, usually on days where I stop taking something else (melatonin, etc) for a day or two to lower my tolerance. Good luck.

@ g that is good to know as I suffered a terrible traumatic brain injury leaving me with a bit of cognitive slowness. I have been taking this every single night to the point of hallucinations.

Wow, I didn’t realize it cause nasal congestion. I’ve been fighting nasal congestion for a week and feeling better they’re taking NAC and using a Netti pot and this morning after taking Benadryl for the first time in a few years, I had worse nasal congestion than I have all week. Interesting!
Diphenhydramine is a strong drug! It is used in surgery to potentate narcotic effects. It is addictive and I can vouch for that. Only way off this drug is a very slow taper. I don’t drink or do any other medications, but I look forward to diphenhydramine at night for its sedative effects. It does cause restless leg syndrome for half an hour, then it is gone and replaced with sleepyness.
When nothing else works this does for me. I don't recommend using it every single night but I've had good results with it. Definitely groggy the next day but I'll take that over being groggy all day from not being able to sleep
I've been taking it since my stem cell transplant and I'm trying to wean myself off of it. It's very addictive for me and is connected to increased chances of dementia.
I have MdDS And I just got up from it two hours ago and I still feel horrendous from it. I think it might be worse on me than it is on people without that. But I also know that it’s easy to need more and more for it to keep working and that is scary. I don’t think I’ve ever taken more than two at a time but I don’t think I want to take it anymore because it makes me feel worse than natural things do. I had no idea about the things in this video. I might share it with one of my groups online. Thanks so much for this video I had not realized all of these things.
I have had insomnia litereally my whole life and all sleep-aid tablets use melatonin as base ingredient, however it didn't really help me sleep, It kinda works but it's rather ineffektive. think I should try Diphenhydramine for a change?
I used to take diphenhydramine to sleep but finally discovered it was making me very depressed so I stopped. Now I've been on trazadone for years and want/need to cut down my dosage but I am worried I'll be in hell all night. There's no perfect way to get off these types of drugs.
Melatonin. It’s natural. My 80 yp mom wouldn’t sleep and was confused almost all the time. I gave her melatonin The 10mg dosage did nothing so I raised it to 40mg and slept more and here mentality change to almost normal most of the time. We have less melatonin as we get older which is one reason old people don’t sleep. If you don’t sleep your brain can’t reset
This is a really informative video thanks, i just got a question after watching this, i bought some nytol tablets to help me sleep since lockdown has blown my eczma up so bad i can't sleep all night, and im considering trying these out tonight to get some rest but do you still recommend someone with eczma take these to help sleep?
Is Diphenhydramine more effective than doxylamine? I noticed the formula for Unisom (and generic wal-som at Walgreen's) used to be doxylamine… and now it's this, Diphenhydramine - Any advice or notes?
I've been taking Equate sleep aid every night for over 2 years at the maximum dose. I sleep really good with it but I would like to know if I'm screwing my body up by taking it for so long?
Hi there, I stopped taking this Nytol Diphenhydramine 25 mg on Sunday Last week so 8 days going and i still feel the stupid headaches from it Any tips or medicines to kill this thing out of my system? Any advice would be greatly appreciated
@@captinweestain526 Do you still get those dumb headaches bro?7 I feel the stupid effects even after 3 weeks! I probably did like 500 mg in total within 6 months
When I take this I feel super weird like it’s hard to explain but I wanna jump out of my skin it’s weird it goes away after a little bit but if I take 30mlg that feeling is way worse.
Ive been taking it for 2 years every night i sleep like a baby every night. Work out every morning at 4.30am and work 9to5. Works great for me. No side effects whatsoever
I am currently recovering from an extremely severe drinking binge. 100mg of Benadryl a night is the only way I can get ANY sleep, even then it's still broken and full of nightmares and anxiety.
I recently purchased this because I have very restless sleep like I constantly feel like i am at work and keep getting up i get back down to sleep easy but I really want to have a good sleep it is stressful dreaming about doing work constantly and being waken up every other min because I feel like I forgot to do something
How does benedryl cause brain damage? If this drug literally feels like it opens up my 3rd eye. It makes me have awesome dreams even when i smoke weed with it. It just doesnt make sense to me that something that can thorougly induce vivid dreams can damage the brain or cause dementia.
Zolpidem is evil for me but effective , Quetiapine is less effective for sleeping (some time work some time not) any alternative for strong one (like zolpidem)
Taking it currently to fix my sleep cycle which was ruined from frequently drinking. Definitely works better than melatonin which i refuse to take anymore. However as many others have mentioned, the grogginess in the morning is intense. Its almost like a zombie like state. Dont recommend taking this long term
