SWIM doesn't quite remember how he heard of this, but sometime today SWIM discovered this OTC drug while surfing the internet. SWIM read a couple reports on erowid and that's all he needed. He ran up to the local CVS and pocketed one tube of Benzedrex. He also bought a pack of smokes and another tube of Benzedrex.
SWIM's research proved that Propylhexedrine is similar to amphetamines, like adderall, and produces a "euphoria". SWIM used to be a fiend for adderall. He no longer abuses adderall, he only does it when he has a lot of work to do because it makes him work extra hard and love every bit of it. But SWIM had just smoked the rest of his chronic and kief, so he was excited about getting high, especially on a new drug. Benzedrex comes in a small tube where you are supposed to breathe in this chemical from a cotton rod in the middle of the inhaling unit. Each cotton rod contains approximately 250mg of Propylhexedrine. SWIM broke open one tube and cut the cotton into about 6 different pieces. When swallowing these, he gagged a few times because of the taste (sort of menthol, sort of lavender... not good at all). So on the other cotton rod, he cut the cotton into smaller pieces and wrapped them with tissue when swallowing them so he couldn't taste them as much. It still tasted pretty bad, but was easier to get down. After they were all down, SWIM waited for the 500mg to kick in. Some erowid reports say it's effective even only at 125mg, so SWIM was anxious to feel the "high".
That was at about 7:30pm. It's 11:45pm now, SWIM is still speeding. SWIM is utterly surprised that an OTC drug can be this powerful. When it first kicked in, SWIM was getting waves of euphoria over the top of his head and body. Sort of like chills, but instead of being uncomfortable they felt really good. Actually, SWIM is still feeling this on the back of his head. SWIM is grinding his teeth right at this moment, which is one of the only downfalls SWIM has noticed.
Overall, Propylhexedrine is very similar to adderall, but it's more euphoric and less manic. SWIM is glad he tried this drug, he just hopes he won't be up all night like with adderall. But either way, this drug is definitely worth a try. How many other swimmers have tried this and with what results?
EDIT: Forgot to add, SWIM was on his back patio for a few hours playing the banjo and talking to his neighbors. When he finally stood up and walked to his computer, he got a rush of blood to his head and everything went black for a few seconds. This is not uncommon, but at the same time that was happening, SWIM's extremities felt extremely tired. He feels fine now, but it was sort of strange that a stimulant had made him feel worn out like that.
