Hey Trippers,

I've lurked here for years and would regard myself as a serious seasoned druggie. I could bore you all with stories, buy let's just say that I'm 32, I smoked my first cone when I was 13, and since then have been socially and/or habitually hooked to everything I can get my hands on. Which in order of abuse would go something like cannabis, acid, MDMx, Ketamine, Magic Mushrooms, Speed, Opiates (I whacked a 40mg oxy a day for 2 years simple because I had access), Benzos blah blah blah blah.. suffice to say I'm a career drug addict. Not that anyone gives a fuck, just thought it might be relevant before I post about my latest recreational activity.

Where I live Robotussin "Dry Cough Forte" 200ml (containing only dextromethorphan hydrobromide 30mg per 10ml and whatever glucosey shit they put in there) can be bought from Chemist Warehouses without anyone blinking an eyelid. I have honestly been walking into my local store and buying 2 bottles at a time every week for the last 3 months. I'm pretty sure they'll catch on eventually, but at the moment it's trip city.

I should mention that I've been semi-suicidal lately; after a big breakup with my girlfriend, a possible jail sentence on the horizon and $80,000 of drug debt I'm the kind of psychonaut that really doesn't care what he puts into his body and with DXM being so cheap I really wanted to give it a red hot go.

I've been downing up to 4 bottles at a time (I weigh about 75kg if you want to do the maths) and fuck me this stuff works. But hey, you know that already right? So why am I posting this? Let's just say I've found a fucking awesome combination... You'll no doubt laugh.. or think WTF.. pointless. This guy must have no penis etc, but if you have access.. trust me when I say that coming from someone who has dedicated his life to getting fucked up, this is a gold combination.

Recipe:
4 x 200ml Robitussin DX/Dry Cough (or whatever the equivalent is in your neck of the woods. You know the drill).
1 x bottle of amal nitrate. Yes people.. A good old fashioned party popper!
1x mp3 player with good headphones and your choice of binaural brainwave sounds. My personal favourite for ipod/iphone users is the appropriately named "Altered States" binaural app (http://appadvice.com/app/308034723) bearing no resemblance to the awesome movie by the same name btw.

Anyway. Here's what I recommended if you have no fear of flying or dying. Scull 4 bottles of robbo. Wait for insane trip to commence about 2-3 hrs later. Find somewhere comfortable to lie down in darkness. Something like a bed would be your best bet. Shoot any neighbouring dogs and evict anyone else living with you as you need silence. When tripping, if you're able to still find your ears place earbuds from mp3 player in them and start your choice of binaural brainwave patterns. Then take the lid of a bottle of amal nitrate and snort snort snort your guts out....

One of 4 things may happen at this point:

a. you will die.
b. the gods will speak to you
c. you'll have the best trip you've ever had
d. You'll feel like you're floating through space and time

Well it worked for me anyway..

Have fun :)

Oh and I may as well throw in a question, does anyone else notice extreme flanging of sound on DXM? It's probably well known and in all the FAQs but I can't be bothered googling right now as my eyes are on fire.
 
First of all I'm sorry. I actually realise that my post was not a direct report of my experiences, but rather a recommended recipe for psychedelic nirvana.

In terms of my personal experience, DXM being a dissociative in the insanely high doses I have it, I can lie down in the right environment with my eyes closed and lose complete physical feeling of my body. Combined with frequent doses up the nose of amal nitrate (often referred to as "poppers and found in adult stores to heighten sexual experience) there is a sensation of floating through space and time. Combined with the binaural tones or sounscapes like thunder or rain from any common mp3 player, (easily downloaded with a bit of googling) I find I can direct my trip to wherever I want to go. Sort of a like lucid dreaming while awake if that makes any sense. For me this is a sensation of floating throughout the universe, combined with a semi-spiritual feeling of being connecting directly with all surroundings and feeling the energy binding all things on a quantum level. Yes it sounds a bit wanky, but that's the awesome feeling I'm personally able to achieve.

When actually walking around in this state I feel like I can push apart the air in front of me, and my direct surroundings, almost like walking through another dimension, while still visibly connected to the real world. Even turning on a tap feels insanely cool watching the water flow and knowing it's all being recycled back to the world. This all makes me feel like some kind of mad new age spiritualist, but funnily enough I'm a skeptical atheist with no belief in the supernatural, so I'm aware it's just part of the trip, and enjoy every bit of it as a dream like experience.

There's not much point going into my direct experiences any more than that, given high dosage DXM trips are extremely hard to explain and differ so much from person to person.

Regarding opiates, coming from an ex Oxycontin IV addict, no these drugs do not in any way resemble the calm drugged out relaxing feeling of opiates. Quite the opposite, I feel like in small does that I'm heavily stimulated, almost like a lose dose of amphetamines, but in high doses your body loses any meaning and it's quite the opposite. In small doses of DXM (1 200ml bottle) I often do the house work or go shopping and find it quite enjoyable :-)

The interesting thing that connects with opiates however, is that I actually used DXM to get through the hideous withdrawal effects of giving up Oxycontin. During the first week of physical hell I often tripped on DXM and used another medication I was able to get prescribed called Pregabilin (brand name Lyrica). This drug in high does can have quite a dissociative effect as well. I found both extremely helpful in disconnecting from the hideous restless leg syndrome, skin crawls, body pain and general anguish and mental desire to get back on Oxycontin. I still often mentally crave opiates like any ex user, but I've been clean from being a daily addict for 2 months now and have no intention of going back to that world of hell.

I should also mention I wrote my initial post while on DXM so I apologise for it's scattered nature, and for lack of details of the experience itself. Let's just say I was eager to recommend my recipe for happiness! :)

Hope that clears things up. Happy tripping!
 
2,400 mg of DXM (your dose) is a stupid amount to do and to avocate doing, even though you say death could happen. It could kill a lot of people who don't have a considerable tollerance.
