DXM appreciation thread

DXM is bashed by idiots who either haven't tried it, or haven't tried it at the right dose.

bump if you're a proud dextronaut!

 

I used to be a psychonaut. It changed my life entirely one night on the most exhilarating out of body trip to outer space ever. I don't even remember how I was before that happened. All I know is that I was horribly bitter, sad, and mad at the world. It really jarred my mind out of all that suffering and flung me into pure blissful love. I don't continue to use it however. I got from it what I needed and moved on. I used it a handful of times.

 

yeah the wonderful thing about DXM is that it doesn't have a crash; infact the opposite -
DXM gives me the best afterglow that any drug could ever give.

Not to mention the BEAUTIFUL disssociation.

 

I had it once at 475-500mg. I liked it. I will do it again at least once more in life. The negative stigma it has accumulated from kids eating boxes of pills really bothers me. It's about as much of a "maaaan let's get fucked up" party high as Salvia is a legal pot alternative. This one's NOT for the kiddies, imo...

 

Its not high on my list of things to do but I'd like to try a heavy dxm trip. I've done it a few times and highest dose was about 300 mgs and it was cough medicine. (strictly dxm on the ingredients though) Parts of it were interesting but parts I didn't like mainly I felt like my brain was sizzling coming off which I was surprised about at such a moderate dose. A true dex trip does interest me slightly though.

 

There's certainly nothing quite like it. The highest I bothered taking was around 760-780 mgs. I didn't jump in head first though. I read up about it for days before hand and dipped my feet in a few times first.

 

Yeah, it definitely doesn't feel "healthy" as you're coming off. I felt quite poisoned, though not the same as with alcohol. Even though I dosed at 10am and peaked at I guess around 1pm, the after effects lingered until I went to sleep that night at like 12. Didn't taper off at all, just felt like I was half-tripping for 8 hours after peak diminished.

 

yep! I took the 300 mgs on airplane ride at like 4 pm tripped out until like 9-10 when I got home, felt like I came down slightly but then turned the lights off and was all scatter brained and seeing some weird mind images in the dark. Was up for like another 4-5 hours.

 

Also got some pretty impressive black and gray CEVs as I laid down and tried to sleep that night. No geometric patterns or grids at all, it was like very fluid swirling ribbons of smoke or electricity. First non-colorful CEVs I've ever had and completely different than PEA or trypt visuals but still very cool in its own category.

 

One of the first times I did it before my psychological re-birth I was laying in bed at night. Around 1 am. I had recently cleaned my room and I looked out across my room in the dark and the white carpet became sand and it turned into a desert scene, rocks, cactus. Not full on hallucinations, more like a mirage in my mind sort of.

 

600mg DXM <3 wowowow

 

Ive tried varying trips on DXM from a small dose to quite a high dose. Up until i did the high dose i never really held much regard for the substance. But during that wonderful trip, i gained a lot of respect for the stuff. However there is no denying that it isnt very healthy for someone to consume a lot. The occasional usage is ok IMO. Obviously i prefer 'real' psychedelics like Mushrooms, LSD, DPT, DMT, etc.

Also as sweetblasphemy said, there is a lot of negative stigma out there within the psychoactive users (idk how to say what im thinking) community and with people in general about DXM. This stigma stems from, as was aforementioned, young kids eating boxes of the stuff or drinking many bottles of it and getting sick, they dont know the dose, they dont know common sense, and they are getting hurt I wish people would research things more from reliable sources, and not JUST their friends.

Sorry if this is a bit of a rant. To sum up, i mildly enjoy DXM, it is definitely not something i am planning on doing for a little while but having tried it in the past, i can understand many peoples love of the stuff.

 

Yes yes, we know, you all saw the dexxy light and want to share it with worthy others.

So be quiet. the last fucking thing that needs to happen to dex is for it to be accepted as a legitimate drug. That would be the end of it. We're already close to that, it's plastered all over anything DEA.

 

You can thank retarded middle schoolers who OD on bottles of acetaminophen and guaifenesin and end up on channel 6 for that. Somehow I don't think this thread is doing much harm in comparison...

 

i was one of those kids when i discovered it. i read about it in the anarchist's cookbook in the legal highs section..and it was probably the only accurate piece of information in the entire book. i did it all the time in the space of a couple years...even in school.
i was a slacker and poor (still am) and as such i never bothered to study it at the time and dismissed any desire to do so with excuses about never having the IQ to understand scientific jargon nor the money to ever acquire any sort of equipment. there were extraction recipes available but they were over my head and attention span. in fact at that age i only had a very small feeling inside that there was a deeper meaning to the things that made one trip and to the trip itself. none of my friends felt that way and there was no one to guide me into a deeper understanding at the time.
however nowadays my body rejects it. i can't reach the higher plateaus because my body spits it back out. the last time i did it i was spinning records to pass the time and had a flashing pool toy sitting on my table sending wierd shadows up the wall. in my peripheral vision it looked like demented versions of the picture put on doors to signify the men's restroom. there were three of them huddled together looming over me.
i'll always have a soft spot for it and it offends me a little when i hear people talk about how dirty and worthless it is after all the time i spent with it. then again that's most people's take on things they don't understand and have never tried...especially when it comes to tripping.

 

its damn fiendy though - I try to keep my use to at least once a week, but this past week I've done it around 4 times.

years ago when I had no tolerance 300 mg would send me far to the 3rd plateau; now I need more then twice that amount, but who cares when you have grams and grams of the pure powder

 

Oh, I realize that, I'm just saying, asking people to respect DXM won't work, and if it did, it would destroy DXM.

 

I love DXM, I trip about every month or so, always with Grapefruit juice and a 8oz robbitussin cough max. Always provides for amazing CEV's and an amazing audio / visual experience in a dark room. I just chill in my room, taking bong rips and cranking ambient / psytrance until 4am.

IMO, things you MUST HAVE for a good DXM trip:
-Weed
-Techno, dubstep, ambient / meditation, w/e
-Grapefruit juice and or niacin capsules(walgreens)
-Comfortable environment

And if possible, pure dxm capsules, or Zicam Cough Max, or Robitussin cough max.

<333 DXM, I love being blocked from reality, and I like feeling like a robot, in this "simulation island" of ours.
Also, Grapefruit juice makes A HUGE difference if ingested before and while tripping, From personal experience, it potentiates the DXM with amazing success.

 

BUMPED x100

the first time i took it i did over 600mg. Dude i was tripping so hard... it was amazing. it opened my mind. i love that stuff. but soon after my first trip i started to crave more so i havent done it since because i seriously don't want to get addicted that stuff.

 

Dude DXM has always been in my top 3 favorite drugs. I have always defended it's use in other threads. Shit, it gets my vote.
