    People who take large amounts of those things sit and stare at the wall if they’re not unconscious

    Some of them die. I wouldn’t recommend fucking with dosage limits. Even if it’s not fatal, it could do something like ruin your liver which will reduce the quality of the rest of your life.

    If you’re having trouble sleeping, see a doc. If you’re looking for a new way to have fun, I guarantee there’s a better option for you.

      Sleeps are deeply strange. Its kinda crazy they are legal, much better ways to sleep that dont turn the lights out and autopilot on. Fascinating stuff

    I knew someone that did this on the regular to knock herself out. But it never seemed like actual sleep to me. Her legs would kick all night. She would toss and turn. The next day, her mental state would be like someone who had not slept at all. I don’t know how to explain it but it’s like it turned the lights off but everything was still running. I don’t think her brain did all the stuff it’s supposed to do when actually sleeping.

    She suffered multiple injuries from falls while on that stuff too. Trying to go to the bathroom or kitchen etc.

    She suffered from severe anxiety and ADHD, so things might be different for someone else.
