Last night at 12pm I took about 750-800mg of DXM. At about 1215 I had passed the fuck out (dang). I woke up at 130 and threw up a LOT. everywhere. I then melted into my bed and passed the fuck out again. At about 430 I woke up again with terrible stomach pains so I tried walking to the bathroom but I couldnt walk at all. Now its 12noon and I still feel high. 800 isn't supposed to be that big of a dose so wtf happened?
 
How experienced are you with dxm? If this is among your first few times, then yes, it is a massive dose. Have you ever reached this level of DXM before? What's the previous 'highest dose' you've had?

Just a number of questions worth asking to get to know your body better.
 
2nd time ever. first time i took about 400mg. I was reading trip reports online and everyone was doing big doses, a lot of people were even doing over a gram so i figured 800mg would be alright =\
 
lol going so high before you've had a chance to really feel things out gradually. I didn't go anywhere near 700+ until like, my 10th trip in.

And chances are good the people who wrote those trip reports were fairly more experienced with dxm before going so freaking high.

im 180 lbs looking to take 350mgs. will i be socailly functionable? i may be around some family members. its my first time with a reasonably recreational dose
 
My second time taking dxm was a 1200mg trip, I think that is the only way to truly experience an amazing effect from dxm. At low doses its just sort of psychedelic, but at high doses you can just sit on your couch with your eyes closed and experience multiple alternative realities that each seem to last an entire lifetime, but when you open your eyes after each experience it has only been about 1 minute.... mindblowing. But I definitely dont recomend taking dxm more than once or twice, as it is the only class of psychedelic drugs known to be unhealthy for your brain.
 
you were not having an overdose, DXM is known to cause nausea and vomiting. You should do some more research prior to putting new drugs in to your body in the future. Good recreational doses for beginners are around 350-450mgs
 
800mg's isn't much. The most of I've done lead me to four full days of after glowing. Don't worry the after glow will just linger until it dissipates. Side note, while after glowing for the four days, I got stoned on the third day where the effects of the after glow were minimal; it amplified my high to that of a 300-400 dose. It was a shock to my psyche I thought I was going to be a loon for the rest of my life. At any rate ware it off and if you smoke and get high again, you're not going insane.
 
Say, I have a question for the OP,

how did you take your dex? :)

Robo? CCC (CC now lol) ? Zicam? anything else?

I think it takes a shit ton to actually overdose on DXM and even then its not like other "overdoses"

Sounds like you didn't just take straight dxm, and you paid the price for it.

Also sucks that you passed out on the wait. :/

Should drink water! No need for dehydration! ^_^
 
^good ideas except for the fact that DXM in higher dosages is very possible to OD on. I have done so twice, both times involving seizures, vomiting, hospitals, rapid heartbeat, and full catheters... :(
respect the drug or else you could be looking at a world of pain

Agreed here, I had only one major OD but that wasn't an OD to me
It was just me on the 4th plateau and my family walked in (was 17 at the time)
and they took me to a hospital and I had to get a catheter :/

But the rapid heart beat comes with a DXM trip regardless of how much you take,
vomitting occurs when you normally have something else mixed or your body just can't handle that dosage and you should lower it next time.

Agreed about respecting the drug; but the only "real" overdose I had was when I could not control my trip and got locked away in an abyss and relived the last 15 mins of my life about 6 times in a row.

But other from that I seen someone go into a seizure from DXM and just pure out vomitting even beyond the drug, where it wouldn't stop for an hour and I deem that a medical overdose, and it was because the person had a heart murmur they did not know about and should of never been taking the drug.

I think we just need more details on how it was taken ^^;

edit;

And I can personally say, if you're an avid dxm tripper, I've binged on DXM (2009) for the entire two-three weeks of Spring break atleast consuming two grams a day, at a minimum. Not all in one dosage but over a period of "stacking" i guess you can call it and never went into an "overdose" =[

So yeah, if it was because there was another active ingredient, even if you are used to it, let it be a lesson.

And OP, if you were poppin cough and cold pills, just wipe the red off next time, you'll know what I mean if you try. :)

the first one was on 1600mg and the second one was on 2400mg...then I had one a year later but that was only in combination with smoking rocks with my dad, which led to heart failure. I would strongly advise against using any stimulants in combination with DXM.

This happened to me the day after I did LSD for the first time!

Robo, made sure there was no apap of course.
 
The doses were all at once for the first one, and the second one was 1600mg and then I got so fucked up I guess I thought I could just keep eating them like skittles, and then my gf took me to the hospital when i started flopping on the floor like a cracked out fish out of water lol
