Benadryl Addiction

What is Benadryl addiction? If you have ever heard the term, you probably know it is a powerful drug that has an anti-depressant and anti-anxiety effect that can be used for depression, and it is not something that is highly addictive. It is often used to help people suffering from anxiety. However, people with bipolar disorder often take this drug because it helps them get better, and it is known to have some type of anti-anxiety effect. Benadryl addiction is when a person becomes dependent on the drug, meaning they can not do without it. This can be very dangerous, because there are many possible side effects from taking this drug. Some of the side effects of taking this drug are confusion, increased heart rate, panic attacks, depression, and seizures. These are just a few of the effects of taking it. Of course, these effects will vary by person and situation. They also can cause extreme cases of intoxication, which can cause death. Of course, if taken in larger amounts it can also cause hallucinations, insomnia, and even psychotic episodes. So, if you are someone that has a dependency on Benadryl, you may want to consult with a doctor. They will be able to tell you if there are any other medications or drugs that you should be taking in order to prevent the dependency from occurring. If there is, the doctor will recommend that you stop taking the drug and not use it at all. However, the majority of people do not become addicted to this drug, and so it is easy to become addicted to it. You will have to decide whether or not you want to go this route and whether or not it is worth the danger. Sometimes Benadryl can be a great drug, especially when combined with other things such as sleeping pills or anti depressants, but if taken in large doses, it can cause severe problems. If you feel like you need it and want to take it, talk to your doctor to make sure you are not taking too much, or else you could wind up with some serious problems.
