DXM: Afterglow better than trip?

Yeah when I wasn't feeling like shit during that trip I put on The Violent Femmes amazing first album which you should really check out if you haven't.
 
^Hell yeah man: "and ten, ten, ten, ten for EVERYTHING EVERYTHING EVERYTHING EVERYTHING!!!! I love that song so much.
 
^Yeah, if used in the right context, DXM can be pretty amazing. Just out of curiosity, do you have experience with any other dissociatives?
 
I love DXM too, pity I don't get as many chances to try it as I'd like... definitely agree with those suggesting ambient/slow music, my favourite is Asura - seriously, check them out, especially if you're into dxm

And +1 to the antihistamine comment. I need it, every time. I just take it with the dex and it's smooth sailing from there... not worth risking doing it without, the itches just ruin any enjoyment that could come from it!

im still so intent on trying DXM.
(i have once or twice as a teen but never really explored the headspace, just drank a bit to get high)

Im very intrigued by all the positives i have heard about it.

The ensure a good DXM experience:

1. Drink enough to actually trip. 3rd plateau at least.
2. Do agent lemon extraction or get pure DXM powder because the syrup has high fructose corn syrup and that's why people get so sick cause they gotta drink a lot of it. DXM alone feels more clean.
3. No music, unless ambient. No light, trip in darkness laying down is best.
4. Weed is a must, but you only need a bowl or two for the trip as you would with LSD. It potentiates it and makes it more enjoyable IMO. But also can be more scary if you aren't ready for the crazyness.

Keep in mind throwing up the cough syrup happens all the time, you'll feel better once you do it. But do the extraction, it's worth the time so you don't feeel as nauesa and plus too high fructose corn syrup spikes blood sugar and that can't be good during a DXM trip. Plus it makes you feel tired and worn out.
 
I liked the DXM afterglow way more than the trip itself, which was characterized by a horrible bodyload including fevers (ugh). The next day though I felt great, in a refreshed floating-two-feet-above-the-floor kind of way. Granted I wasn't tripping in an ideal setting but the body symptoms are too much of a turn-off for me to try it again, the afterglow notwithstanding.
 
Haha I can imagine the after glow would be better, my first time I did dxm I regretted it so bad, but I was so happy when I fiannly came down. I was like "YES I FEEL NORMAL AGAIN!"
 
I completely agree with the OP.
Recently I have been dosing 300mg-450mg (i weigh ~105lbs) at night. I'll stay up and enjoy the high for 2-3 hours, then go to sleep and usually wake up 6 hours later feeling AMAZING.
The afterglow is my absolute favorite part of DXM and I wouldn't touch the stuff anymore if it wasn't for it; and smoking some good bud with it creates a really intense, stimulating, and euphoric clear-headed high that lasts for hours
 
I don't know what it is about skittles, but one box (480 mg of DXM) has always gotten me waaaaaay higher then the couple times I've tried 700 mg of pure DXM using agent lemon extraction, or any other drug I've had for that matter. Sometimes it even seems like theres a 5th plateau, even though I know theres no such thing. I love the coming up, I live the peaks, and I love the afterglow, which is like PCP without hallucinations. I've punched entirely through a door on this stuff, and broke the bowl on my pipe trying to stir it with a paper clip. I've never had any side effects aside from the usual cold sweat and super fast pulse, while pure dxm just makes me feel very wierd.

Note: Everyones Chemistry is different. The fact is I have a super liver and a high tollerance to pills. I took over a gram of acetominophen when I was 12 and had no side effects. Of my original group of friends that did skittles, only two of us are left. I do not recommend skittles to anybody, and I believe this drug surpasses most 'hardcore' prescription pills on all fronts (how high, how addictive, how dangerous, how life ruining). Honestly, 8 skittles won't hurt you. I told my friend the same thing so he took a whole box died in a puddle of his own damn vomit. My other friend that OD'd spent a day in ER. Don't do skittles.


And to my fellow metal heads I highly recommend the band Hunab Ku. Best trip music I've heard thus far.
 
Aura of Calm

I have used DXM long enough to know the bad things that can scare the hell out of you and the amazing things that make you tip-toe onto the edge of a star in the middle of a shining galaxy that doesn't even exist. Closing your eyes greatly allows you to see things that should not be there, and your eyes are closed so you shouldn't be seeing anything at all. I have broken through emotional barriers with people while in the onset, the peak, the tailing release that feels like a thousand shards of crystal pouring from my head down over my shoulders, and of course in the afterglow. The most extraordinary things can happen such as the realization of a new more beautiful path to walk the road of life on. In turn the evil worm will devour you if you allow yourself to be captivated by the visionary elegance it seems to imbue, and envelop you in. Lost in a tragic forest unable to find light to point the way out....horrifying. Coricidin Red CC's make quick work of anyone bold enough to taste it's decievingly innocent coating. The seed blooms into a thousand images jutting and tearing while blurring and distorting. The snake is fast so be on your guard and grab it by the head. It will snap and hiss with bloodlust in it's eyes, but hold strong and control your breathing. Seconds...minutes....hours....why did I.... An aura of calm enrobes every fiber of your being with such feeling unspoken by words, but now visible through sound. Warmth... calm... peace... enlightenment....home.
 
I've tried DXM once with a mate, only had 300mg each, second plateau dose? But anyways, i thought it was quite unpleasant, i wasn't able to stomach any alcohol on it, i felt pretty crook because i just drank a bottle of cough syrup in 5 minutes and i wasn't really euphoric or happy... Just mild visual distortions, crap motor skills and all in all not as hyped up as it is on the internet... If they sell it at pharmacy's for ten bucks uncontrolled without any need for ID i don't thinks its a good recreational drug (in my opinion and those of my friends), yeah its a drug that alters your conscious state, but you can also do that by hyperventilating for several minutes and holding your breath...

I've tried many different drugs, but I'd have to say DXM is down there with BZP. Ketamine was fun, DXM wasn't... I really don't know people how can use DXM long term, I'd use it again as a cough suppressant in the recommended doses but not much else...
 
I love DXM. I have only had it in low doses but it produces a nice euphoria and empathy. The afterglow is really good as well. From the small tasters I have had of Ketamine and MXE, I prefer DXM. I have a feeling I might change my mind about the Ketamine once I get more aquainted with it. From what I have heard the side effects increase as tollerance goes up.
 
The only enjoyable aspect of this drug (besides the CEVs) is the feeling of waking up the day after you come down. Once it all goes away, you feel great. Like your body is happy that shit is finally out of your system.

But I pretty much ruined DXM for myself. Alcohol + DXM left me throwing up blood on two occasions back in high school. Never again.
 
I enjoy both the actual trip and the after glow. I think that they are two separate experiences in terms of level of consciousness, but you can't have one without the other. I've had experiences where I enjoyed the trip more and have had experiences where I have enjoyed the after glow more. I think it depends on setting, situation and a million other little factors that we don't even think of. I like the fact that DXM is like two trips in one. That is if you count the after glow as a separate trip.

I guess you could technically have the trip and avoid the afterglow with opiates or benzos, but obviously you cannot have the after glow without the trip itself.
