I took DXM today. I dosed 6 20ml med caps, so 120ml @ 30mg DXM per 10g so about 360mg
I didn't know what I was in for, all I had heard is that it was like being stoned and drunk at the same time (which I have experienced previously). Really, I think this is an inaccurate representation.
After taking 6 20ml shots of dxm, I sat back, listened to some music and waited for the peak. I'd just eaten lunch so I assumed it would take about an hour to kick in. Half an hour had passed and I began to feel weird, similar to the 'come up' when smoking marijuana - an anxious, disorientated feeling. I found I had to get up, take a walk and clear my mind. This happened a few more times until the peak hit (2nd plateau I guess).
A loss of reality came over me that was similar to that of a strong marijuana high, but my brain was not as impared as if I had been smoking pot - I could still read and function as normal, at least I thought till I got up. When I went to grab a glass of water, the dizziness and more disorientation hit - I began to think this was a dirty high, my heart was racing and I just felt really munted.
I decided I needed some 'chill out' time and set myself up a bean bag in a dark room with aircon on (hot here, I'm in Australia). Music sounded good, and I had mild euphoria and I felt quite good, despite a bit of nausea and lingering dizziness. The high was similar to being drunk at this point (probably end of 2nd plateau) and all anxiety had disappeared. I think I began entering the comedown stages here - The dizziness started up again, and I just felt anxious and burnt out - Similar to coming down from a strong weed high, but maybe even worse.
A friend of mine came around and we went for a drive - out in public it was like I was nodding out - in and out of reality, it was dreamlike and surreal at stages - a pretty crappy feeling. We drove around for half an hour, I grabbed a coke, drank it down and now I'm in some form of normality. The changeback to reality was actually quite instant - I'm still a little buzzed now, but there was a clear cut 'fucked up to sober' period.
The verdict - DXM (at least for me) is not really worth it. It reminds me of all 3 drugs I have tried in its own way, ecstasy (in the way it removes inhibition), alcohol with the loss of motor skills and weed with the mental reality loss effects. I found my eyes felt pretty fucked up on it too - Like I was on a pill.
All in all, I won't be bothered with it again - If I want to get a drunk/stoned feeling in the future I'll stick to my faithful friends, booze and pot. I think DXM is a pretty dirty sensation and doesnt have too much recreation value - It might be good in a small group of friends for a bit of an introspective chat at the latter stages of the high when you aren't completely munted but coherent enough to think. Other than that - not worth the effort.
