"I always try to keep a sense of humor in life ... after all, it's only a temporary stop between incarnations anyhow. In view of that, I offer some suggestions from readers on how to know when to stop. You can identify a dozen different brands of cough syrup ... by the smell alone The local pharmacist starts asking about your tuberculosis problem The checkout clerk calls you "that Robitussin junkie" When you take out your recycling it's all brown glass bottles You ran out of excuses at the supermarket and now just tell people you like that cherry taste If Drixoral Dollars were real you'd own a Ferrari You haven't slept in two weeks, haven't eaten solid food in days, and you've just told your parents that you're marrying an alien from the desert planet Zolgar You've gotten so used to your eyes moving independently that you think you're actually a cleverly disguised lizard You just made your fifth Christmas ornament out of those little plastic shotglasses People ask you why you're walking around in shorts and a T-shirt sweating like a horse ... in the dead of winter. Your native language now consists of grunts and bizarre gestures Sophia Loren, Sean Connery, etc., come knocking at your door offering a night of passion and you tell them you aren't into "meat pleasures" You think you're on the Internet ... physically. You're sure you're actually a Jedi Master, but for some reason your Jedi Mind Powers don't seem to work on the cop that just arrested you for walking naked down Main Street. On a more serious note, if you do start finding reality breaking down, your friends avoiding you, or your grades or work performance dropping, it's time to stop. DXM may be a lot of fun, but it just isn't worth losing something truly important over." http://www.dextroverse.org/faq/dxm_side_effects.html#toc.6.13 God damn that describes me a year ago. Anyone else get close to that? I never really thought of robo as addictive.
LOL, nice. sad to say i've gotten pretty addicted to it... never been arrested, haven't lost friends, and thankfully it was never really a long time, just had a few binges here and there. but it's way more addicting than it seems... i mean c'mon, it's so easy to walk into CVS, shove an 8 oz into your sweatshirt and walk out. and a night flying through the milky way is way more interesting than whatever's on TV anyway. but i've found that once i get on a roll doing it, i fall into a haze and tend to severely overdo it. so my key is just to stay away from the pharmacy and not get started, and i'm pretty much set. plus i've just discovered ketamine which puts DXM to shame.
seriously, 'addicted to dxm'... thats just weird. smoke pot, eat shrooms and rolls and drop acid man.
i don't know how many times it has to be repeated... dxm is a drug. what makes it any different from any other psychoactive chemical? besides the fact that it's useful as a cough suppressant (which opiates are as well... are they not drugs?)
its damn near impossible to get addicted to shrooms, acid, and rolls but some people can get addicted to rolls just very few. im guessing over half of everyone on the psychedelics forum is addicted to pot, which to me, is wierd since doing a drug everyday is just retarded no matter what it is. i've been addicted to DXM for a little over a year now and it hasen't really had any bad effects on me. 1-3 times a week is alot different than every day though and lately its been once every week or two. i also take month+ breaks sometimes now. i think the general hippie jargon of pot shrooms and acid being the only acceptable drugs is bullshit. ive seen weed screw up countless peoples lives due to lack of motivation and bad decisions. just because they arent physically bad for you doesn't mean they arent mentally bad for you.
