DXM's is a hell of an addiction (trip)

Okay well first let me start off by saying if your going to use dxm extract is or get the powder and don't use everyday you will almost every time get hooked you change your vitamin b-12 gets pretty much demolished with this drug so your not all their..

It was last summer the last day off school (i got expelled 3 weeks before this) i got a call from BOB to go roll on some bomb E i went over and their was about 4 people and they said the E is gone now and she hands me 6 red pills with cc and says there called red devils .. i take em and trip.. did it everyday from there on out...

3 weeks later- JOE and I were on 20 triple c's which didn't do much since i have been doing 50 pills a night for the last 3 weeks looking like a skeleton worse then a huge crack/meth head i looked like i was dying.. We took another hand full of ten each and 20 minuets later i started to trip i was in my room and JOE was laying down and well im going to leave him out cause he tried to force me to take 10 more as soon as the other 10 i took hit me so he ended up taking 20 more and went into a obe and other things ( it is dark everywhere in my house which helps for hallucinating on dxm i was looking at my wall posters and they started to almost melt but form together at the same time i then stood up and a wave of euphoria hit me along with tingling and vibrations i could't believe how tweaked i was at 30 pills i grabbed a pack of coricidin and opened another took one sheet out and ripped the other open like hulk poped 16 out then the other 8, 24 down the hatchet i sit down on my computer and put on some bineral beats(don't know how to spell it) on and my journey began i close my eyes to a huge field with perfect grass there is all field and nothing but field i sit down and hand my neck to find my self back on the computer but a little bit over me i start ti go up more and more .. and my vision goes blurry then black to find me or my soul flying in a dark place then i see light and im in a cave its purple and black there is a temple there i float up not controlling where i go, i love that feeling anything could happen good or bad.. im now in a normal place watching a family eat dinner
i then saw it was my family every one was their i looked soo healthy and everyone was really happy, i knew what was going on the dxm was trying to help show me how life and be .. and i will finish this tomrrow im on trazdone or whatever for my insomnia..

 

dude, you're going to die.

You're taking heart meds and APAP, in huge doses.

I mean, DXM also fucking fries your brain and makes you noticeably stupider.... both to you and to others (I regret doing it as much as I have) but really, daily? And from heart medication pills, no less?

 

also "trazodone or whatever"... you're risking serotonin toxicity with every dose, too. DXM functions as an SSRI and shouldn't be taken with serotonergic antidepressants/sleep medications.

(plus you should *probably* know exactly what meds you're taking if you're going to do drugs at all)

RooRshack is right, too. i didn't even do it every day but did an awful lot, and can tell you from experience, of multiple times a week for months on end, that continued use fries your brain hardcore, and that takes a while to recover from... i still wonder if i'm totally back to where i would be even after having only done it twice (stupid) in the last several years but it's way better than it was, i was in a fog for a looong time, i'm talking for months after stopping. not to mention the damage it does to your body... and i wasn't even using coricidin

c'mon, man, be smart

 

this trip was awhile ago i have quit after seeing 2 of my friends get shipped to edmonton hospital and from what i know there heart stopped i got help for it but still crave it i have done permanent damage and advise never to take them they are not worth it, and it did make me pretty dumb common sense wise, but i still keep my grades up as i have with every drug i used, i wasn't on any meds when i did these pills and i have been on many meds for my insomnia none of them really work i was up for 3 days last night and got really dizzy from trazodone, and the rest of the trip was life changing and made me really want to quit which i did after 1 more week i stopped for a bit then relapsed, i am aware of the dangers of the drugs i use ive been in and out of rehabs and do research on drugs before i do them, this was the only one i did first without a clue it was a med for coughs

 

Common sense wise too. But also just stupid and in a haze. I'm not sure I'm the same, and it's been years, and I've only done the stuff like a dozen times. I mean, I think I'm better, but maybe I just got used to being stupid.

 

Interesting trip. When I do dxm I limit myself to 2 sheets, 16 pills. Sometimes I enjoy the 1st plateau and only take one sheet. Ever since I OD'd on dxm last year and ended up hurting myself from falling so much, I've stuck to one or two sheets and I don't do it everyday. I also do it in a comfortable setting such as someones house, a place I know I won't have to be walking around for some time. Id be careful with that stuff, bro. Its true that it can fry your brain, one time I was on it and I literally felt my brain swelling. And I agree about knowing the drug interactions with any meds your taking.

Honestly though, shrooms or acid are better options if you want to trip. Happy trippin

 

I used to do DXM pretty often (often in my case was every other week, but NEVER every day..I mean jesus) but you never ever ever do them if they have other ingredients in them besides DXM. It's risky enough by itself. Be smart and research what you're ingesting.

 

I experimented with it years ago. I did it maybe 3-4 times in a month, and even that was too much. I would do a bottle of Robitussin, which contained maybe 350-400mg of DXM. I know there are people who do a lot more than that, but it was enough for me. Wow. I remember one experience, maybe my second, where it was like the walls and ceiling of my apartment disappeared and I could look around and see my whole neighborhood. My second time was also when I learned to keep an empty Gatorade jug next to me to avoid trips to the bathroom, because it was almost impossible to walk. After that last time, though, I was done. It was months before I could even think about cough syrup without getting nauseous. I can't even imagine doing it every single day.

 

Ahh, a lightweight, ehh

Walking on dxm is the best. You do the dex-walk, and it feels like your head is moving up and down a lot.... I miss the recreational aspect of the stuff, I just think that it does a lot more damage than it's worth, and past a few uses, has limited psychedelic value. I know that very high dose stuff is different, but I think it's not my cup of tea, and there's other spiritual drugs that don't fry your brain.

 

I was beyond the robo-walk stage. The part of my brain that controls balance and coordination basically took the night off. The last time I did it, I never thought it would wear off, which told me that the experiment, for lack of a better term, was over. Actually, the first time with that kind of thing was back in the early 90's with Nyquil, and on that occasion I didn't intentionally set out to get high. I had a terrible case of the flu, and had my sister go and get me a bottle of Nyquil. I took one dose, and it didn't do shit, so I took a second dose. That made me feel a little better, so I took a 3rd. By then I was catching a buzz, so I took a 4th, and that did it. My flu symptoms were pretty much gone, and I had a nice, euphoric buzz going on that lasted 5-6 hours. I didn't feel so good the next day though, and my shit was green for 24 hours. But anyway, years later I'd heard about robo-tripping, and remembering my Nyquil experience, decided to give it a try. But not with Nyquil because of all the acetominophen, so I settled on Robitussin. There's a site that has some good information about this. I don't remember the exact name of the site, but it comes up when you google "The Third Plateau." It contains information on the dosages necessary to achieve the four plateau's of experience on DXM, and generally what you can expect at each plateau. But even this site doesn't recommend doing it more often than once per month.

 

I assume you're talking about the FAQ. It's a pretty good resource.

After you've done it a few times, you seem to get more of a tolerance and become able to walk and talk and such on the same dose, IME.

But my general dose would be one bottle of robo, I forget what it calculates out to, exactly.... nearly 400mg? My first time I "died", with a staggered dose, and could hardly move at all with very intense physical feelings bordering on nausea, which must have been a bit over 400mg. But not that much again.

In the end for me, doing it once weekly or so, a bottle would be like the more psychedelic equivilent of getting totally smashed, with out the tendency to forget things and puke on people, and with much more euphoria and feeling of satisfaction. More generally fun, even though I don't really drink anymore, when I do I can get to the point where you don't feel that you're drunk until you think about it, despite being quite drunk. Never had anything like that with DXM.

But I can't imagine enjoying the shit daily. I can imagine taking it, but not getting the real reason for taking it in a daily type situation.

Still, pity, but it does seem to be a lot worse than drinking. Though frequent use of either is obviously quite bad for your brain.

 

I just checked, and the FAQ is no longer available. There is some info at the other site, though, http://dxm.darkridge.com

Edit: The site I meant was the beginners guide at http://dxm.darkridge.com/text/beginners.html

 

....of course the DXM FAQ is available.

Well, that's a link to erowid. Once again, the site I meant was http://dxm.darkridge.com/text/beginners.html. At that site, they provide a link to an FAQ at http://www.frognet.net/dxm which is no longer available.
