Many people describe their experiences with DXM differently. Just wondering how YOU would classify it: A CNS stimulant? Depressant? Both? Neither?
Pharmacologically, being an SRI and NRI, DXM has stimulant effects.
Ketamine and presumably methoxetamine both have act as DRIs, and can thus also be classified as stimulants.
The "depressive" effects, I guess, are the dissociating anesthetic effects. These are not really the same effects as from classical depressants, but I can see how some people would refer to them as such, since you are basically a potato for the duration of the peak of higher doses of these compounds.
Personally, I can't sleep for 6-8 hours after taking a moderate-high dose of either DXM or MXE. I have never tried Ketamine.
