I have felt something of a high from Ativan, codeine, after a wisdom tooth extraction, and pseudophedrine. Otherwise, my only other highs were from simply becoming manic or maybe to a degree, alchohol. I never (voluntarily) tried any illegal drugs, and when under their influence, had unpleasant delusions and hallucinations.
It just makes me very chilled and good feeling, and sleepy, if I take too much of it. I like it a lot unfortunately, except it also gives me the munchies.

I used to get highs from gabapentin and benzos, but am so used to them now I don't anymore.

I don't like feeling drunk, and marijuana gives me panic attacks.

Anyway, so I guess I can't give any specifics other than that it makes me feel good and chilled out.
