Holy fuck, did I overdo it this time or what..

This isn't much of a trip report.. more of a "I did too much and need to lay off" report.

OK, first, I tripped Monday. 3 zicams, for 1173mg @ 185 lbs. However much mg/kg that is, I haven't done the math. This was my highest dose yet, and one of my weirdest trips. I don't remember a lot of details, just that I went for a walk and got really lost. I remember the road I was on turned to sand underneath my feet, which then turned to mud/slush or whatever. I turned around and ran until I made it back to solid ground, still didn't know where I was. Finally made my way back and got home. Got lost in the bathroom, like I'd be sitting on the tiolet and suddenly not know which way was up or down. I didn't know where my head or feet were. I'd struggle to get up, brace myself against the wall, and take forever to find the door. Finally went to sleep, and my hangover surprisingly wasn't bad the next day.

Tuesday I just hung out. Wednesday, I tripped again. 1 8 oz robitussin, 1 bottle gelcaps, half an 8 oz robitussin. My grand total was something like 1300-1400mg. Why this sounded like a good idea at the time, I couldn't tell you.

That trip... I don't remember much of. I remember I went for a walk, because that's like a ritual of mine anymore. Can't trip without going for a walk. I remember talking to people in stickam chat. I remember having trouble breathing. Other than that, I don't really know.

I finally got to sleep, then my brother wakes me up on the phone around 7 at night asking where the hell I am.. I was supposed to meet him and my mom for dinner. "Oops, slept late, on my way." I was still tripping balls. Get there and I just try to say as little as possible. Don't know how I drove there and back, but get back around 9:30, go to bed. Grandma wakes me up at 11 asking why I didn't eat the dinner she made for me. Go back to sleep.

Wake up at 3 am with a hardon and feel compelled to masturbate.. I have forgotten the happenings of the past few days. After a while I realize why I can't come, and I just feel really sick suddenly. There's literally a puddle of sweat in my seat. I get a towel and clean that up, go to take a shower, and vomit on the floor of the bathroom. Shower up, go to bed, can't sleep due to exploding head syndrome. I was having audio hallucinations that made me feel fucking schizophrenic. Looking back at the past week, or longer, I feel like I've been in a psychotic rage.

I've got a hot date Monday so hopefully I can rest up and get this stuff out of my system. I'm thinking surprisingly straight right now so I guess that's a good sign. Right now I'm just happy I'm not completely insane or dead or whatever. I can now relate to what depersonalization means. I feel fully dissociated like I'm on dxm, yet I feel no dxm high. I feel like I'm not the person acting out my actions. I have control, like I can guide myself. I can reach to my head. But I'm not the person scratching my head. Oh, and I have robo itch like a motherfucker.

Sigh.. I need to get my shit straight, fast.

did a little more research, looks like I may have had a case of seratonin syndrome:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seratonin_syndrome

is there anything I can pick up at gnc to make my the chemicals in my brain happy again? lol

edit: This may sound dumb, but I was getting really into the porn I was watching that morning. Could that have caused a seratonin release, and maybe that's what pushed me over the edge? Because before I masturbated, I didn't feel GOOD, but I didn't feel nearly as fucked up.

edit: The verdict: don't masturbate after dxm binges. It may save your life.

I don't think you experienced serotonin syndrome; I think what happened is you took way too much DXM and now you're coming down.

That's about it.

If you didn't combine any other drugs with the DXM, and didn't experience extremely negative effects after the first dose, and spaced out each DXM dose by 2 weeks (many other people don't), then I wouldn't think serotonin syndrome was even possible in this situation.

However I guess you never really know - are you taking any other medications? Have you taken any other drugs besides DXM?
 
I didn't spread out my doses by 2 weeks.

Last week, I know I tripped at least once. There's a good chance I tripped twice. And I generally do between 1 and 1.1g.

Then I tripped Monday, over 1.1g

Then I tripped Wednesday, around 1.3-1.4g

I woke up last night in a daze, drove to dinner and back, went to sleep. Woke up this morning feeling off but not too bad. Masturbated, and suddenly went into a really severe state of panic and hallucination etc like I said above. Exploding head, schizophrenia, nausea, disorientation, confusion, gasping for air, twitching etc etc. Then I passed out. Few hours later I wake up, my emotions are still going crazy and my mind is still racing, and still a bit of exploding head, but at that point I had looked it up and realized it wasn't harmful and would eventually stop.

I haven't done any other drugs other than the fact that I take a dose of benadryl every time I do dxm(100mg usually)

I'm over the worst of it anyways.. My mind is still racing, but for the most part, I think I'm almost back to normal. Still sweating a lot. By tomorrow I think I'll be fine.
 
I think i can help.



Ive took benedryl before when i was on my pill binge and the only thing youll get out of those is tiredness, and restless leg sndrome.


VERDICT: This is why theres DMT, LSD, (in some cases if your desperate LSA), mescaline, peyote, shrooms,and salvia.

Id rather spend a lifetime looking for one of those psychedellics, rather than fucking my kidney in the ass by going robo 1-3 times a week.
 
My emotions are so beyond whacked since this happened... I seriously spent like over an hour sobbing earlier, feeling sorry for myself for various reasons. Like I was feeling OK, just lying in bed hanging out, not feeling overly depressed or anything. And suddenly the shit started flowing. First time crying in a long, long time.

I've been taking St. John's Wort for depression but I'm not sure if it's doing me much good. I'm still sweating more than usual. For a few days there I would wake up in the mornings and be drenched in sweat, sopping wet all the way through the mattress, but it didn't happen today so maybe I'm getting better. Still, if I go for a walk right now even with it being 1:30 a.m. and cool out, I'll sweat profusely. I'd seek professional help about that and the depression - I'm having suicidal thoughts but no plans on acting on them so far - but I know I'll get sent to Lifestream (the McDonalds of mental institutions, in Central FL) and I really need to avoid that... people go in there every day and come out worse off than ever.
