Dissociative addiction is this weird and ugly beast. Dissociatives are useful for
treating addiction: salvia
causes rats to stop self-administering cocaine, ketamine
does some stuff, and ibogaine needs no introduction. People who are addicted to dissociatives
don't get hit with too much withdrawl, usually, so it's a wonder they keep doing the stuff. And, I mean, how do you treat an addiction to the things used to treat an addiction?
If you read the ibogaine trip reports, they all report a mystical experience during which they realized they were worth more than, well, sitting around and doing heroin all the time. Or methamphetamine, or cocaine. It also inhibits withdrawl by blocking nAChR, or that's how we think it does it -- we think that because 18-methoxyconaridine, which also blocks nAChR, also seems to inhibit withdrawl. But it has this other effect of making the user feel important, and that's also rather useful in treating addiction. It's a constant with dissociatives, and because people like feeling important, some get addicted to the feeling. (And it also causes some hallucinations. Ho-hum. Hallucinations are so
boring, I mean, I've had them like a million times.)
Op, at this point, you've exhausted DXM to the point where it has one remaining effect: it makes you feel good about yourself. You're not really as great as it makes you think, you're a kid with no friends who sits around drinking cough syrup. Stop it. The cough syrup is pointless. Do yourself a favor and don't call it dex and don't try to make it sound important, because it's not. It's cough syrup or pills or whatever and you're a kid who sits around and does stupid shit to himself and you need to
stop it.
(well, this is supposed to be a harm reduction forum, there goes my shoddy attempt at harm reduction)
my brains probably fried. who cares.
That's the spirit! You tell 'em!
Kids, don't robotrip and post. u.u
