Having heard and read about tripping on dextromethorphan on the internet and having nothing to better to do i decided to give it a try.
11:00 PM- drank 4TBSP of Vicks Cough Medicine (60mg), about 10 minutes later noticed a hyper stimulant-like buzz on my walk home. I jogged for a bit and cranked up my ipod to the max, but i did not want neighbors thinking i was on drugs so i stopped jogging and just walked the rest of the way with Slipknot cranked up to full volume
11:30 PM- drank another 4 TBSP and took a small sip from the bottle as I was not feeling too much and waited for a bit. i still did not feel too much, maybe a little 'music euphoria' and a feeling that i remember from when i was a kid. i felt sort of 'kid-like' but maybe it was because of my subconscious association with otc drug use and stupid teenagers/kids
11:50- decided to drink another 2 TBSP and took another small swig from the bottle. this brought the total amount up to around 175 mg. Overall similar feelings continued and i noticed some color distortions and i went in the shower. the orange soda bottle i was drinking at the time looked so awesomely orange (like a color distortion when very high) and then i thought about some sexual things that i would rather not mention and did not see it as anything offensive like i ordinarily would. i still did see it as offensive but i just didnt care at the time. i was beginning to have an "i dont give a fuck" attitude about things. At the same time, I felt stimulated and somewhat out to lunch. music was more euphoric than before. I was not tripping like I wanted to and I considered taking more DXM but decided against it
2:05- This is where it got interesting. I was laying in my bed and suddenly started feeling disconnected from my body. Also, it felt as if the bed, me, my dresser, the room, and my house were all kind of melding together and i was just part of it. I dont know how else to describe it but it felt fucking awesome. Then, I noticed the ceiling began to kind of pulsate in a very erratic jerky way. I felt like I had to go to the bathroom. On the brief walk there I realized I kept walking strange and walking almost felt like I was flying side to side for short spurts (almost like being dizzy but way more realistic). I had explosive diarreha and crapped myself a little because my body sensations were distorted more than i thought
. At this time I started to feel very nauseous but i couldve cared less at the time
2:15- In the bathroom, it seemed as though my trip was intensifiying. I began to feel a different sort of 'high' rather than the stimulated, alert feeling from before. Also, at this point I truly did not give a shit about normal worries and felt disinterested in 'reality' in general
2:20- I went into bed tired and wanting to sleep (i figured i wouldnt be able to but didnt give a shit either way). In bed I noticed some faint CEVs that appeared relatively stable (not moving or shifting very rapidly) almost as if the patterns were draped in front of my face. I began to think about stone people building a castle and could imagine it very vividly though unfortunately i didnt see it
2:30- I layed in bed some more and had more CEVs that began to faintly form trees in front of my face. Then, I had to go to the bathroom again where I had more explosive diarreha. I went back into bed and continued to get faint CEVs this time of really trippy looking landscapes with trees and giant mushrooms (like some sort of trippy screensaver) it was awesome. I felt sick still
2:50- I had to go to the can AGAIN. I got concerned that maybe DXM really was as bad as anti-drug people like to say and got worried I might be having some sort of dangerous symptom. I knew it could make you sick which it did, but I didnt know if it normally gave people the shits. I figured it was nothing to worry about but I checked erowid to be sure and of course it does give people the shits. then, i started coming down. I went to bed but couldnt sleep for a while.
3:30-4 AM- I went to sleep with no dreams
5AM- I began to notice CEVs again. As i went to back to sleep they got stronger and stronger and eventually I sort of fell 'asleep' but it was really more of a strange lucid dream where i was in an empty room with a woman and a kid who had a dog-like face. this scared me but i still knew that i was high on cough medicine even though i was asleep and dreaming and told myself not to freak out (or bug out in my sleep, if thats even possible
). I had another lucid dream that involved me being a bird in a video landscape with tiles for the ground and sort of 'flanging' backwards. during these dreams i forgot that i had moved out of my parents house a long time ago and got concerned that my folks would find me out for getting high on cough syrup.
In the morning I awoke a little groggy but otherwise normal and recovered quickly with little hangover so i give DXM a thumbs up
