My DXM experiences over the last 3 months

I had been smoking weed for some time, but a new friend at work suggested I drink some Delsym cough syrup. So one night we hung out and each drank a large bottle of Delsym. It took a while to take effect, but when it started everything was wonderful. I was already high as fuck so we watched spengbeb videos, but then something seemed different. I couldn't explain why. So I stood up, and I noticed I felt like cream moving through jello... weird shit. Colors were brighter, everything was... soggy and slowish. Normal things seemed strange.

Fast forward to next weekend, I did it again, only this time we smoked so much that we got retarded at the same time. It was this weekend that I experienced my first real trip of any sort. All of a sudden everyone got out of the car we were smoking in, and I was too retarded to find the door handle and get out. I got this feeling of being alone on the Earth; that I was going to die in that car. It was weird but eventually I got out and we just had fun the rest of the night.

I kept doing it on weekends, until I found a magical bottle of pills... Robitussin Cough Gels. I found out after trying them in school one day that they actually caused a TRIP and not just a weird sensation. So from that point on I got to where I was doing it daily. I would drive by Wal-Mart and all of a sudden feel something in my pockets... hey, where did these pills come from? I would walk into a store, walk out, and even if I didn't LOOK at the pharmacy I would find cough medicine on my person later. I sortof developed a kleptomania.

I had some crazy trips though, some trips I won't bother trying to explain. Just out of this world stuff. Most I ever took was 5 bottles of gels (I weigh 200.) There were times I came to startling realizations about the world, and I still feel that way.

Well, one night I guess I got really fucked up on 4 bottles of pills, one bottle of Robo liquid, and a half-o of weed and time just... froze. Things gained infinite depth, nothing was real anymore... then I got abducted. By an ambulance. now things have changed in my life, I'm forced to take antidepressants by my parents, and my parents are just being dicks in general. I can't wait to be on my own now. The world just seems different to me. Not in a schizophrenic or delusional sense, but just think differently. I feel more sane than I used to, like I always thought I was until I realized I was following everyone else's standards and believing their lies about what life was supposed to be.

I did dex one more time after the hospital fiasco, before I knew ssri's and dex didn't mix, even though I had only taken one pill (we were going to drop acid but our dealer was jumped on that very day, sucks to be him and us) and I realized that night that dex is no longer for me. I've learned all I can learn from its experience, and now I need to use that knowledge to my best interest and let other people learn from dex.

Anyways... DXM is something I believe everyone should try unless they're allergic or on meds, heh. Definately life changing. Just don't let it take over your life like it was starting to with me.

 

hey,
my name is joe, im 19 years old and im from long island new york, i can definitly relate to ur post..i accually just got out of rehab for dxm,
its a crazy drugs, the trips are unexplainable, but i loved it and i coudnt stop doin it till it finally put me in the hospital, i was smoking weed and i drank 2 12 oz bottles of robo and did 16 triple c's and i woke up still trippin in a hospital bed, do u still do them? were u from?

 

You should read my thread in this section. It mentions deylsom.

 

not to be rude but I guess dxm addicts are people who never discovered acid/shrooms....

 

with any drug u should know ur limits, and when ur riding to close to the edge. u couldn't stop? its not hard, just stop buying or stealing it... seriously if u don't have the will power to do that, then u shouldn't be taking any drug at all. and i understand ur love for it, i've had this feeling... u had mad tolerance to take 2/12oz bottles and skittles. thats just asking for trouble.

 

I completely disagree. Theres a reason why people get addicted to DXM, and it's not physically addictive. It's a really underrated drug. After a while though, I think there's only so much cough medicine or bad dex-sessions one person can take in a lifetime.

 

thats true, thats true. any one else like mixing polistirex with regular hydrobromide? or do some diphenhydramine a couple hours before you do the dex?

 

A little Delsym is awesome with some Tussin, but it tastes even worse. Like plastic...which it is.

Diphenhydramine...wow...not a very enjoyable drug IMO. I would think the danger of having a really awful trip with the two combined would be to great for me to try it (as long as I am living at my parent's house anyway). I would probably just fall asleep and waste the tussin anyway.

 

delsym doesnt taste like plastic to me. the trick with the diphenhydramine is to not take enough of it to trip from it, but only like 50-200mgs tops, depending on your preferences, a couple hours or so before you take the dxm. strange reactions will happen depending on how you mix them and how long before the dxm you took the diphenhydramine. diphenhydramine inhibits the enzyme in your liver that metabolizes dxm, so more dxm will get into your system instead of dxo. you'd be suprised but sometimes the two react together somehow and make you really hyper with that i can rip anything apart right now feeling that dxm gives sometimes. i learned that having tobacco to smoke is a good way to counteract the anticholingeric sedation of diphenhydramine since nicotine will attatch to the same receptors and fill in for the time. the two together will definetly have you questioning reality and remembering that its all in your head.

 

DXM is a good, and relatively safe (has a low toxicity) drug to do occasionally. I probobly take 2 or 3 good DXM trips a year. Of course i prefer traditional psychedelics (shrooms, LSD, LSA) to DXM, but the great psychedelics are rare in my locale.

LSA is a fun enough expierence, aside from keeping down all that damn seed!
