DXM Scraps & Redundancies

well, since you didnt feel anything, thats a good thing.
youre not enzyme deficiant. you may proceed with higher doses relatively safely.
happy tripping!
 
wuhoo!!

so how much would you recommend for the next time? and would it be safe to try again tonight or should I wait longer?

oh and btw - I ended up taking a total of 180mg last night...

Question for DXM Users: What cognitive functions have you noticied have been damaged if they have? Do you attribute it to DXM? Please give some examples.
Click to expand...

After 1 1/2 years of 3+ times a week use. I've noticed these problems:

1. Slight dyslexia, I have to slow down and think more about what I type/write.

2. Problems finding words, saying words incorrectly while talking.

3. Problems associating and understanging figures of speech and abbreviations.

4. Unable to roll from ecstacy (DXM acts like an SSRI). I'm sure that it was good pills too.

Multiday DXM binge affects:

1. create sleep deprivation problems.

2. Becoming comfotably numb and in a constant state of stoned, hardcore SSRI semi numbed out happiness. Mental addiction.

3. Massive physical withdrawls including electric shock feeling, feeling of falling, headache, massive sweating, and loss of balance.

4. Serious tollerance, I can do over 1gram and still act completely sober to all people in my life that have no clue that I'm a drug addict.

The only other drugs I've used during this time frame was E(7 times, all mostly bad trips), pot(like 15 times), benzedrex(10 times), and 5-meo-mipt (3 times). All the negative effects (except E rolling) go away after about 3-7 days of being sober. The SSRI affects last a little longer. I haven't been sober longer then two weeks to tell any other long term inpairment. Drug tollerance goes away super fast and is mostly gone in 5 days.
 
^^ wow! thats a little overuse and a 1g tolerance! what do you mean by multiday binges like when one trip ends you redose again gee.

Question for you/other dxm users: Does it progressively get better the longer you stay away from the drug?
 
well. if you didnt feel anything from 180, try 354, which is one bottle of robitussin.

id say you should wait a couple of days to let your system flush the dxm crap out. it does take quite a load on your liver and pancreas, so dont overdo it. also, dont eat that day. it helps for a smoother trip.

youre doing it via syrup, right? well chase it down with a bar of chocolate, it eliminates the shitty taste in your mouth and reduces some nausea.

alright, happy tripping!
 
Something really terrible happened to me during a sigma trip a few weeks ago and I won't be using dextromethorphan anymore. Imagine seeing the negative side of everything possible in your life, and having this delusional trip for days. I didn't think I was going to survive. I would recommend against plateau sigma trips. Peace.

true, plateau sigma can be quite delusional, and i've had hangovers lasting weeks, I still do it and love it though, it reminds me of that video by soungarden "Blackhole Sun", everything normal seems weird and distorted, very dreamy and nostalgic...

I never had a bad trip on dxm, I always reach ego death and become fearless and a feeling of oneness with the world, oh well, you just gotta find peace with this chemical, it seems to be in a deffrent place for each person it seems.
 
Ou am luky as I am on a very bad trip now/ think I canttpe/...threw up again just then and now can't even walk to bed/ O I had some benzos last nyte amd I am swimmimh over the moon now! music is onn buy nothing makes sense....I will never do this again..too mucj on me
 
hey guys, me again, and I am not trppin' hehe... I slept from about 3am and did not wake-up until 3:37 pm - which is my personal record for sleeping. Guess it was the DXM? Anyways, have to go now and try make the most of the day I have left... bit of a bummer when you sleep through the whole day.
 
I've taken dxm about 6 times (currently coming up on one right now).

Keep the trips in the lower range, higher range seems to become more unpleasant (atleast for me). In one of my "trips" I was a retard and wanted a lot of visuals, so I went over 1500 mg and ended up in the hospital for a week. It was pure hell, I'm suprised I survived. It's nothing I'm proud of, it was really stupid and I only type this as a deterrent to those who would consider going that high.

My favorite trip was at about 700 mg, where everything was just so significant and dream like. I walked down the street, which proved to be the greatest walk of my life. It was just so... cool. Not sure how else to say it.

I also have gotten the itchies a couple of times, but that tends to pass after 30 minutes or so. I found that if you scratch your head for a while, the rest of your body stops itching and only your head itches. It becomes pleasurable to scratch your head, but at a point you can stop and ignore it, then it will go away. Then the comes the good stuff (for me, atleast).
 
I posted the same thing on the "other drugs forum," but perhaps it's more appropriate here:

I was thinking of trying DXM (starting with say 250 mg). Is it safe to do DXM while on Lithium and other mood stabilizers? I read everywhere it's bad to do SSRIs and DXM, but I saw some small aside on an article, Erowid had linked mentioning that Lithium is also a bad combo. (This article:http://www.dextromethorphan.ws/dxmguide.htm.) However, the person writing the article lumped it with other drugs that are in completely different ballparks than Lithium, and neglected to mention any other mood stabilizer. This leads me to believe the person has no idea what the hell he is talking about in this instance. Nonetheless I always research drugs extensively before using them and I felt I should ask other who might know more here.

(As an aside it seems like people in this thread have less bad things to say about gellcaps, but many seem to think they share most of the same side effects? Is this about right?)
 
I wouldn't recommend taking any psychedelics with Lithium.

Lith is EXTREMELY hard on the liver alone. I seriously don't recommend taking DXM while prescribed it.
 
First and foremost thank you very much for the reply Magikalkat. This helps clarify why Lithium was mentioned in the article, but if you (or anyone else) has a chance I would like to ask a little more. The reason I'm about to ask more questions and give more information is that I'm trying to carefully deduce as best I can the severity of the danger, not to establish that in general it is dangerous. Certainly all drugs are dangerous. I understand that my meds and mood make everything I do more risky.

But according to the liver difficulties, then presumably drinking with Lithium in your blood is very bad (for the same reason). And I do that (as I'm sure thousands of others do).

When you say psychedelics do you really mean every single psychedelic drug? Mushrooms also a bad idea? (Do you consider MDA psychedelic?- because I've done that.)

Lastly, when you say you don't recommend it, do you mean to suggest that the risks are higher of say nausea or vomitting, or is it a question of permanent liver damage, or are we even talking a risk of death?

Any and all help appreciated, and I understand that it might be difficult to answer some of these questions, since there is not a lot of data out there to draw from.

DXM is great not only is it cheap and legal but it can really teach you something. I always here people talking about it not being a "real drug" why is that because its legal? because its used to help people with coughs? well what do these people think about weed, is weed not a real drug b/c it helps with pain and what not weed is legal in amsterdam so it must not be a real drug. DXM is a very intense trip and i always learn something new about myself when i try it. I suggest smoking good quality bud about an hour after to really boost it.

i am totally with you on the good quality weed after an hour thing for some reason kindbud has this special synergy with dxm, while driving i like i just got done hitting my onehitter and i got this intense wave of pleasure perhaps a little similiar to a heroin rush, i don't know if it was because of the sudden sharp turn i made or what but it was like my brain might as well had been a reproductive organ that just ejaculated, it wasn't really sexual just intense pleasure kind of like the waves you get from e. truly fascinating
 
I have done dxm alot. I started using it when I was 14 and Im 20 now. I only use it like 1 every 2 months now and when I do its only dexalones. Their so much better then coricidins. I still enjoy it and have fun. I also have mixed it with shrooms, lsd, and k and had some .... well those memories are a little fuzzy. try it more once or at least twice before knocking it.
 
See, the problem with me pulling plateau sigma trips is that I have INTENSE physical pain in my chest and in the back of my head when i get near the 1.3 gram point. Usually when I do a sigma trip, it's from about 2.2 - 2.5 grams spread over a day or a day in a half. The last few times I did it just felt like... I was so close to the edge that I don't think it's worth it health-wise. If I didn't have the physical pain, it would be different. It seriously felt like it was eating up my body and my brain, though I know it wasn't. Also, I've found that with using PCP in the 7mg - 10mg range (smoked), the experience is VERY reminiscent of a third/fourth plateau trip, and it's a lot more managable. That's what I've been doing now instead of dextromethorphan. Up until I felt physical pain, I didn't think anything bad of dextromethorphan. Now, eh.. I'm not so sure.

Ahh yes, I forgot to mention. After that last sigma trip that I was speaking of, I've had an EXTREMELY low tolerance to dextromethorphan. One bottle of Robitussin feels like what 2 bottles felt like before, and two bottles feels damn near a fourth plateau experience, though it's not quite 'there'. The thing is, I honestly don't think that I'll be 'able' to do DXM anymore beause the pain is now there no matter what dose I take. I can take 100mg, the smallest dose I personally can take and feel something off of, and I'll get intense sharp pains in the back of my head. Permanent damage? I don't notice it intellectually, but I don't know why my head would hurt if I take even 100mg of dextromethorphan. Something's gotta be going on there. Peace.
 
After experimenting with doses of 300 mg, 400 mg, and 500 mg, which just made me feel realy wierd but were nothing special, i tried 600 mg, expecting it to be more of the same. Shit was i wrong. I came up for 30 mins. After that, I experienced 30 minutes of sheer puking hell, spending the entire time with my head in the toilet. The next 30 minutes, i had such bad roboitch i scratched my body untill i bled. Then, for the nest 2 or so hours, all i remember is seeing EVERYTHING, the walls, the floor, my friends, the word, melting. Everything was melting. I was a spirit floating through my house and everything was melting, and the room was spinning around and around and upside down. THIS ALL FELT ABSOLUTELY REAL. Then, about an hour of having absolutely no memory. My friends told me i was walking around my house with my shirt off, crouched low to the ground with my arms out, my hair stuck up in all different directions, and my veins bulging out of my skin. I 'came back' to reality in one scary-ass moment when i realized who and where i was, what i was, and what i was doing. In this moment, i felt like i had reached enlightenment, but it was depressing, because i realized that life passes really quickly and that before i knew it, i would be an old man about to die. Then followed another 2 hours of feeling 'off.' Althought it was definitly an uncomfortable experience that i do not wish to repeat, i do not regret it, and think i am better for having had the experience. It was just so incredibly weird. A few days later, i pulled together the nerve to do 600 again, but spaced out to avoid nausea. (300 and then another 300 an hour later.) I was not affected nearly as much, and actually spent the peak of my trip swimming in my friends pool. (which by the way is excellent, i reccomend it. you just get this sense of wonder at how strange a substance water is, and swimming, damn, i cant even explain it you have to experience it yourself.) Anyway, i plan to wait a few weeks then try 600 all at once again and smoke some weed to calm my stomach and relax. I want to enter that 'dextroverse' that i entered that one time again, and see if i can kind of sort it out. Like, that one time, i was exposed to the dextroverse, this time i want to explore it. peace
