Daily DXM use

A friend recently introduced me to DXM - something I had never heard about before. It's been nearly 2 weeks and I've been tripping balls on it 3-6 times per week.

I've experimented with weed, coke, shrooms and salvia, but as a dissociative, DXM is wonderfully new to me. At one point I was convinced that I had experienced true awareness of how blissful existence is, and even realised a few epiphanies after some dizzying introspective sessions.

I remember hitting the DXM peak early one morning during sunrise whilst swimming in the pool with my girlfriend, and spontaneously - for no apparent reason - coming to terms with the death of a close relative. Nothing has offered me anything quite like it.

Salvia was frightening but ultimately enriching, shrooms were interesting, weed is habitual, charlie was nice, but DXM has offered consistently pleasurable, profound, and easily accessible experiences that differ markedly according to dosage... and, unlike salvia, DXM actually lets me do things.

Anyway, I just did 630mg of DXM, so I expect to hit 3rd plateau quite soon. I think I may be high already, which may explain the aimlessness of this post.

NB - I've been hitting this as a means for self-exploration, but also purely for the fun of it, and partly to self-medicate for depression. The last bit isn't a very good idea, but it seems to help, at least in the short-term.
 
Do you have a question?

If you're looking for someone to tell you daily dissociative use is not a good idea, well, daily dissociative use is not a good idea. Tends to mess with your mind and influence your thoughts and it is difficult to notice or care about the detrimental effects so long as you continue. Plus, tolerance lasts for years or long, so you're going to build up a huge tolerance if you keep at it, and lose the magic.

You claim that it is helping your depression in the short-term, and certainly we can use drugs as a bandage, but unless you're taking positive steps to solve whatever is causing your negative mood in the interim, chances are your habit will be the start of an even greater unhappiness.

On a lighter note, enjoy your trip! :) DXM can be quite wondeful and glowing.
 
Be careful. The way you're using it wont be long before the neater parts of the experience go away, and some cognitive issues show up. If you can gear it down to maybe once a month or less, you'll get better trips for longer.
DXM + depression was quite self destructive for me for a few years there, but I would of fucked myself over some other way if it was not for DXM soo...
That being said, it's amazing ain't it?
 
It turns out that I made a few bad decisions whilst on that trip.
I redosed. I ended up taking over 1200mg.
I suppose I made it to the 4th plateau, although describing it as such makes it sound like a hiking achievement or something. In retrospect was actually quite underwhelming (although the trip itself was very intense).

I watched Blade Runner and was completely immersed whilst simultaneously utterly confused. At one point I convinced myself that my childhood memories were false and that I was a replicant.

Eventually the film ended, so I went back to sleep and experienced the most vivid closed-eye fractals yet. Nothing extraordinary - just complex revolving geometric shapes with a bit more depth than usual. I also noticed that my bedroom was somehow alien - like a bedchamber in a medieval castle keep, with huge windows, ominous shadows etc. I don't remember when I experienced this, as my sense of time had been distorted.

My stomach has been bubbling and growling all night (I did chug 4 bottles of cough syrup - not my proudest moment) and I feel like crap.

This was nothing like my first few trips, which felt like wonderful awakenings, life-changing paradigm shifts and whatnot.
Obviously they weren't spiritual revelations, just transient states of illusory bliss. In hindsight however they did help to untangle one or two issues I had. At the time, they were nothing but positive... unlike this trip.

Anyway I'm quite sure I'm sober now. That was my final dxm trip. I overdid it and lost the magic.

I thought I was a reasonable and intelligent individual, but the way I've used this drug tells me otherwise. This last trip was useful only in helping to open my eyes to the ways in which I've abused DXM as well as myself.

dude oxmo, wait til you order pure powder. Lol. I just came off a 2 week binge of doing it every day and sometimes every other day. Mind you i was also drinking lots of grapefruit juice so i was high for around 20 hours on one dose. :) i went through a whole bag of DXM powder in 2 weeks. It was very fun but when i ran out i was kind of rejoiceful. lol. i ordered 20 grams. no apparent brain damage present and no physical habituation noticed. Also weed goes with DXM wonderfully. I'd be on 700mg of the pure stuff and be super high, then smoke a tiny bit of weed and it would complete rip my mind from this earth. It would send me into full dissociation. :D
 
DXM is one of the best for spiritual exploration/growth. I think that to use it for any other reason is more or less a waste of time, but that's me. As for daily use, there are lots of people who manage that just fine. I did for months on end - the better part of a year actually - at big doses. I don't think it damaged me in any way shape or form, and I certainly benefited from it - that being said, it was specifically with the intent of augmenting my spiritual awareness. You can see a post I did a few months ago when I hit the sigma plateau and had a life changing experience with it...just be careful and give it the respect it warrants - DXM has teeth and will bite if you aren't careful.

Click to expand...

Alternatively, one might read this as, "DXM is great for causing delusion" which is also true.

Tell me, how spiritually developed can one be if they are claiming their drug use/recreational persuits is superior to that of others? Should not spirituality be something that equalizes and connects us? It seems to me that such an opinion is one of alienation and hierarchy.

Watch the episode of "Intervention" where the black kid is addicted to DXM and spends all day, every day wandering around the city high as fuck and confused out of his mind on it. Might make you think twice about what daily DXM use does to your brain and body.
 
^that guy in the intervention episode was also diagnosed with schizophrenia so he was fucked long before he decided to mess with dxm. But yeah I remember that episode well...you know you have a problem when people pay you to meet in a back ally and get strangled within an inch of your life just so you have money to buy fucking robo gelcaps. When I saw that I couldnt believe my eyes. @OP-Do you really think thats your last time using it? You reminded me of me when u described how much you loved it the first time you tried it....but i must warn you, the shit can be psychologically addicting. I was using it 5-7 times a week for close to 3 years and lets just say it was not the most beneficial time of my life.
 
It has probably been said already, but DXM is NOT something you want to use every day, it will eventually loose its magic and you will build up a tolerance that will linger for a really long time, but more importantly, doing dxm that much can leave you well, stupid, potentially for years.
 
@lolusername:

I agree with the sentiment, but definitely don't agree with the way you put it. "doing dxm that much can leave you, well, stupid, potentially for years."

Doing DXM how much? ...can make you stupid how?
How do you quantify 'stupid'? Are you talking about cognitive deterioration? Has this actually been documented?
How much, for how long? What are the links between dosage and effects? Where has this been substantiated or investigated?

And let's disregard that Olney's lesion crap.

It's nice to have a discussion, and I'm all for harm reduction, but alarmist nonsense such as this gets us nowhere.

I'd be among the first to warn against excessive DXM use. That being said, saying vague shit like "this drug'll make you stupid" only serves to obscure things.

Be careful, but don't believe people who talk out of their ass.

Using DXM on a daily basis for extended periods of time will leave you cognitively impaired, just ask some long time daily dxm users. Search around some.
 
"Extended periods of time" meaning what? Specifics please.

I'm not attacking you, nor am I looking for an argument. I just want to make these things as clear as possible.

Dosages would also be helpful. I'm sure there's a difference between someone doing 200mg/day for 2 months and another person doing 1000mg/day for 3 weeks. Or is there?

What about someone tripping on 800mg every day for a year?

These sorts of distinctions would be helpful, 'common sense' notwithstanding.
 
I don't exactly know the specifics of how much you need to take for how long to be cognitively impaired, but people who have used it daily for years or even months tend to report cognitive damage that eventually goes away, but can last a long time depending on how much dxm they were using it. Search around, I know it can do this but I don't know the specifics, sorry. The best I can tell you is just to read up on it.
 
It's a shame such little research has been done on clinical effects of DXM abuse, particularly as it pertains to long-term cognitive impairment. We have to rely on anecdotal reports.
Alas, that is the case for many substances.
Cheers lolusername.
 
It really is. I just know from talking to people I know personally who used to be heavy DXM users, and from reading reports from other people on the internet. But it really does seem to be a real thing.
