I saw some people online talking about this thing called “sleepy syrup,” saying it could knock you out cold. So, I decided to give it a try. I was really curious and I got some free time these days.
First, I went to the store and grabbed some cough syrup, the kind with dextromethorphan, or DXM. You know, the stuff that’s supposed to stop you from coughing. I also picked up some antihistamine pills, the ones that make you drowsy, like diphenhydramine, which is found in most sleeping pills.
Once I got home, I measured out the cough syrup. I didn’t want to overdo it, so I just took a regular dose, like what you’d take if you actually had a cough. Then I took a couple of those antihistamine pills, following the instructions on the box. And then, I made myself a drink with some sprite and jolly ranchers. I put the syrup into the cup and dropped the pills and candies.
I mixed it all up, grabbed a blanket, and sat down on the couch. It tasted pretty gross, kind of like medicine mixed with sugary soda. But hey, I was in it for the experience.

The next day
I started to feel a little heavy, like my body was sinking into the couch. My eyelids got super heavy, and it was hard to keep them open. And I felt warm all over my body.
I was completely out of it. I remember feeling like I was floating, and my thoughts were all jumbled up. Everything was so slow and I could barely move. I didn’t feel good at all, and I could tell that it’s bad for my body and it’s not working.
I woke up feeling like crap. My head was pounding, my stomach was upset, and I was still super groggy. It felt like the worst hangover ever. I felt like I am poisoned and I thought I was going to die.
Honestly, the whole experience was pretty bad. It definitely made me sleepy, but it wasn’t a good kind of sleep. I felt sick, confused, and out of control. It’s definitely not something I’d recommend to anyone. It’s just not worth it. And I would never try it again.
So, there you have it. My adventure with “sleepy syrup.” It was a dumb idea, and I learned my lesson. Don’t try this at home, folks. It’s a bad time.
