DXM First Time!

[samduction]

Hi everyone. I'm definitely new to the whole "posting" aspect of this site, but had a good excuse to give it a try.

I've done plenty of research regarding DXM, but so much of it is skewed or inconsistent. I am a young female 5'4", 140lbs, and for the first time I want to trip on the 1st-2nd plateau level. I've done several drugs before and feel really comfortable with my body being able to handle every drug I've tried so far (weed, spice or k2, shrooms, mdma, Ritalin & other similar pills, & of course alcohol).

I use weed or spice/synthetic weed (as we call it where I'm from) several times a day, but probably won't be doing it along with DXM as I want to keep my heart rate down to prevent some pretty bad things happening.

If someone could simply tell me a good dose to take to help me achieve the high I'm looking for, also the best way method to ingest the DXM itself, it would be much appreciated!
(I've also heard the pills can be pretty pricey, I'm looking to keep all this under 20$ if possible)

Thank you!

• Get a formula that only says DXM in the list of active ingredients. It is personal preference but the syrup can be harder to stomach while some people find a bunch of pills harder to swallow. Not everyone has issues with swallowing pills. If you get a time-release formula (not a good idea) with capsules that contain little beads / balls, you must crush those well in a mortar or something to get decent effects.
• About 300 mg seems like a good dose, any more than that and you can go to a plateau you were not planning on. Plus if you happen to be one of the 10% of people that are deficient in a certain type of enzyme, the effects will be much stronger for you since it potentiates any dose.
• Any less than that is responsible to try sometime as a test to see if your body and mind agree with the substance but chances are it will not be enough to reach the lower plateaus properly.
• Check your set & setting, make sure you do it in a controlled environment where you are okay to just lie down and have the experience. Having to move can increase nausea, vertigo and confusion. And being in a situation where things are expected of you is potentially a recipe for trouble. For a lot of people it isn't a social drug anyway (being a dissociative) though it is for some, at lower doses. Be careful.
• Here is the First time DXM Subthread: http://www.bluelight.ru/vb/showthread.php?t=429340 ... It is smart to go through it (you can skip over any banter), because logically people are bound to ask FAQs that are typical for beginners, and the answers may be of use to you, allowing you to avoid problems.

Any more questions?

Best bet is to buy two bottles of generic cough medicine from a pharmacy. As mentioned, the active ingredient must contain DXM HBr only. The generics have less sugar which makes them easier to digest. One small bottle is about 350mg roughly, so I personally would drink the two bottles in two shots back to back. If I were you though I'd just have the other bottle for a potential booster, and take one to start.

Everything Solipsis said.
The daily c-noids are bad news (how to turn something safe-ish like weed and make it physically addictive and brutal to your kidneys) I say smoke pot (or, the c-noids) when you try DXM it makes things much more immersive and impressive.
I prefer just chugging the syrup, it's nasty, but after a glass of water the taste will be gone.

That would likely send her to high 3rd plateau....one bottle should be more than fine. The generic does go down better though.

Yeah, i recommend the OP takes just one bottle but has more in case it is underwhelming. Personally, I'd rather be overwhelmed than underwhelmed with a dissociative or psychedelic. That way, i won't be calculating the next soonest opportunity to dose again. The 3rd plateau is really where the dxm experience 'happens' and I am a much bigger fan of embracing the full experience. I would rather taste the clairvoyance and cosmic perception than simply get fucked up with the first couple plateaus, in that case I'd just drink some booze.

But yeah, i would recommend cannabinoids on DXM, it will bump up your HR and BP but it shouldn't be a big matter of concern, and the experience gains a lot of depth.

 

[Solipsis]

There is no shame in having an underwhelming experience that allows you to get acquainted with a substance without unleashing pandemonium. You can always try again another time, ultimately working to what you want from it (that may be different for you than for someone else). I don't quite understand the impatience. Yeah I agree on some level that with something like LSD or ketamine it is nice to feel like you took more than enough, but I would always learn to find my way around the dose-reponse curve first.

dxm iz dope
get the capsules if u can , 1 bottle = 300mg / 15mg per capsule , pure dxm

in my experience 3rd plateau is safe & comfortable for a first time trip , given the proper setting .. 2nd would be nice as well ..

if u want to calculate how much to achieve whatever plateau per weight:

IDK if you already tried it, but from my experience, mixing it with weed is a BAD idea if you are having issues with controlling your weed high or are getting anxiety from it. I remember once i did a second plateau trip (it was going very well at first), and about halfway through at the peak i smoked a good amount of nice bud, and i dont think ive had as bad of an experience with a drug before. I was on the edge of a panic attack the whole time, it was just horrible, i felt extreme pain through out my body, and the classic demon attack (neither of these things are normal i know but i get somatosensory hallucinations when i have bad highs). The only thing that kept me from going to the hospital was the fact that i couldnt be caught high out of my mind at the time, and it was really late at night and the night time really calms me, if it was day i would definitely have had to do something about it.

Also, my third plateau dxm trip was one of the best/craziest drug experiences, i can barely remember it but i remember the sky was 2 dimensional, and my idea of time was gone out the window, i thought it had been about 5 minutes when it had been an hour, i didnt even feel euphoric anymore it was just complete dissociation. For a first dose if your experienced with drugs it probably wont be too bad, i remember at a time i noticed my heart was beating really fast (this was the first time i had experienced that on a drug) and for a minute or two i was in full panic mode, but i got back to normal after a bit. It definitely is an experience worth undergoing, but i probably will always prefer the amazing euphoric wonderous 2nd plateau high. Unfortunately DXM is a drug that gains tolerance pretty quickly, and after about 10 awesome trips they stopped being amazing and got much shorter, even now i cant really get a good dxm trip too often.

I say it's a good idea to go with 2nd plateau for starters, and OP wants just that, so I recommend going with the 300-350 mg dose range. Like Solipsis said, a bigger dose could send you to the 3rd plateau as the plateau dose ranges can be a bit sloppy and don't always go according to the well-known calculation method (for instance, I had a legit 3rd plateau trip with 675 mg lately, weighing about 97 kg, where with my weight the community multipliers say I should get 2nd with up to 727.5).

The way I did my first time was... well, maybe not an example to follow, but for sure a memorable experience. I did 90 mg for a hypersensitivity test, which I also recommend you, samduction, to do- anybody who wants to try dextromethorphan should. It turned out ok, I experienced some nice 1st plateau "psychedelic touch" and stimulation which was bit of a surprise, but nothing intense (I weighed like 65 kg then). Then I took a hit of LSD (which was according to plan) and left the rest of DXM (345 mg) for after the 'cid peak as I read it's a great way to combine them. The DXM/LSD experience I got after my normal acid trip was extremely intense and over the top, and I learned the bittersweet nature dex has for me to the extreme.

So L or not, I'd say do about 100 mg hypersens test to start with, if you feel subtle to no effects from that, you should be ok with a proper dose like 250-300 mg. If by off chance you feel overly trippy with 100 mg, probably don't do any more. If I were you I'd do both in one session (assuming you're not hypersensitive), in a say 3 hour interval, but don't treat it as good advice, of course it would be wiser to do the 100 mg test one day and your target dose another.

Well, that's my few thoughts. Good luck with your plan!

If someone was taking an MAOI (irreversible) for 16 days with a dose of 60mg, approximately how long should one wait to avoid any problems?

Since it was only 16 days give it a month?

I know the risks involved but only being on the MAOI for 16 days isn't that long.

Maybe 2 months to be on the safe side?

I recommend one bottle too (3 fl oz). For me the syrup is a lot easier to hold down than the pills. I don't know why, but I always end up vomiting when taking 20 pills at once.

I weigh about 72 kg and get to about the second plateau with 3 fl oz (15 mg per 5 ml). The hardest part about DXM for me is the psychological addiction. I recently went on a 4 day binge of a bottle a night. Afterwards I had a hard time concentrating on my classes. So if you end up liking your experience, I hope you are realistic in spreading out your usage as it can become habit-forming.
