I love Dextromethorphan (Henceforth Dex) for its over-the-counter strong serotonergic effects, and also for its dissociative effects as well, but I rarely use low dose Dex for its NMDA Antagonist properties, as they're mind-numbing at best and stupefying at worst. Because of this, as well as wanting to keep my tolerance for NMDA receptors down so that when I use Dex for its NMDA antagonist properties, the receptor isn't already at a higher tolerance because of my low-dose uses.
I choose to use ~20-30mg Noopept (With a choline source to prevent hangover from this) and 1g glycine along with my low-dose Dex to attempt to keep my tolerance down. The Noopept to help modulate/agonize/do something positive... I don't remember exactly what it is to the NMDA receptor, only that it increases activity/effectiveness. I use the 1g glycine to agonize the NMDA receptors as well.
The only problem with this, is that when I do this, I ALWAYS get a headache. I sometimes also get migraines with or without aura, but I'm also prone to migraines outside of all of this, so It's not much of a surprise that I'm getting them. I get more migraines than regular headaches, to put it into perspective. I was wondering, because I never get headaches on Dex without agonizing the NMDA receptor, is it because of the fact that I'm taking an NMDA receptor agonist along with an antagonist that it causes wonky effects? I'm completely left clueless, so if anyone could help, that would be wonderful.
(P.S., I find that using this combo, taking 60mg Dex (as a 68kg teenage male, so slightly <1mg/kg) puts me in a wonderful, happy and sociable mood for hours, whereas without the NMDA agonizing combo 60mg gives me a slight... slight drunken feel with usually little but sometimes barely any mood lift. I'm so confused, but yet, so happy that this works. Anyone have an answer for why NMDA agonism causes a better mood or potentiates the SERT activity of Dex?)
