Trapped in a Triforce of the mind
Drug: DXM

Obtained from: Adult Robitussin Cough Gels (Long-Acting and Non-Drowsy) (15mg of DXM per pill, with 20 pills per bottle)

Amount taken: 34 pills (510mg) I weigh 160 lbs or 72.57kg
Calculated Amount: 7.02mg/kg

The day before (September 10th 2010):

I was talking to my gf (I will refer to her as B from here on out) and asked her if it would be okay if I were to trip at her house to show her what DXM is like (I have told her about my experiences with it and other people's experiences that I was with but she's never seen it in person) and she agreed that would be fine. I bought 2 bottles so I could get myself a good 2nd Plateau trip going on and save some for her in case she wanted to try it at a later time but after I got home I read up more about it and decided to crunch some numbers and found that I could almost just barely reach the 3rd Plateau if I were lucky and tried to help boost it while still having enough to get B on a good First Plateau if she wanted it. So with that plan in mind, I went to bed.

[My only experiences with this drug are one time at the 1st Plateau and three times at the 2nd Plateau, but have tested a bunch of things so I though I had enough experience to try for more]

The morning (and dosing) of the longest day I've ever had (September 11th 2010):

I woke up at 11am and got ready to go over to B's. I decided not to eat anything. (wondering if it would hit me harder like alchohal seems to do so I could maybe push myself into 3rd Plateau territory) I then got in my truck with both pill bottles ready and a bottle of tea to wash it down with quickly. At 12:30pm I took 20 pills (300mg) and decided to head off to my destination (previous experiences and tests have shown that even with my high matabolism, that it still takes at least a minimum of 45 minutes to take effect so I wasn't worried about it kicking in while I was driving) [I don't condone with driving while under the influence of anything but I knew for a fact I would be safe and I wanted to cut down on the "idle" time] While driving there I was on a long country road and was bored so I decided to take another 2 pills(time was 12:40pm) and kept driving. After reaching B's house, while still in my truck, I took 12 more so I could hopefully reach my goal at 12:50pm. I was greeted by B at the door and walked into her house.

A bit of information to establish before proceeding:

To establish a few bits of information I will give them here. I was in a familiar invironment (I often go to her house once a weekend and have gotten used to her mom, dad, and younger brother, whome all smoke weed and the mom and dad drink alchohal, so I am pretty comfortable with them and always feel welcome whenever I'm there. (I wouldn't dream of doing this in unfamiliar surroundings) I also was in good physical shape (not sore from anything the days before or anything like that) and was in a pretty good mindset because I hoped to explore grounds I have never stepped foot on. I was in near perfect health. (I wasn't sick or anything, just a very very small stomach pain that usually happens in the morning and figured it wouldn't cause problems) Now with that established I can continue.

The longest day I have ever experienced:

When I walked in I sat on the couch and was cuddling with B while waiting for it to take effect. At about 1:00 I decided to spin some poi I had brought over and see if B could spin or not. After we both spun for a while I was starting to get very small signs that it wouldn't be too long before the fun begins, this was at 1:20. I felt a little lightheaded and at around 1:30 the naseau that usually accompanies this started to slowly set in. At around 1:40 I started getting really warm and so we got 2 fans and pointed them directly on me. (I was kinda trying to hide it from the parents though, so I faked that I was sick with some bad weed and they didn't ask further) I then started feeling very dissociated from my body and knew it was starting to really kick in at around 2pm. I could feel the effects of the 2nd Plateau setting in and hoped I could go straight on through it.

Time distortion, feeling like I'm on the waves, and somehow getting on a volcano?:

So it was about 2pm when the effects of the 2nd Plateau arrived and I was laying down in her floor with 2 fans pointed on me cuz I was really hot. It helped a lot and somehow my temperature returned to normal. I was laying in her floor and was cuddling with B while my body was slowly losing all feeling in it and whispered to her what was just now taking place. She was like awww and we kept cuddling. While that was happening I would occasionally close my eyes and my mind would create the scene of me laying on the ocean while waves were taking me up and down with them. After a bit of that I noticed that time was starting to distort because I thought I had been over there longer than I really had been. I told her about it and she giggled. Her dad then left for a long while to go to another town for something I don't remember but I was glad he did because he would be the only one in that house to have a problem with my tripping. He is ok with weed but since he's done nearly every (main) drug out there that he doesn't want his daughter being exposed to them. I respected that but I wasn't forcing her to do it or anything so I thought it wouldn't hurt. Anyways, after he left at around 2:20pm then things go really intense. I don't remeber a whole lot but I felt really distant, like as if the whole world and universe were expanding just for me (I think thats where I entered the 3rd Plateau) and quickly found myself smiling alot and having a good old time. After what seemed like forever (only 10 minutes, making the time now 2:30) the heat I felt before returned and my face and body were burning up. I think this was due to the fact that I didn't have the fans on me still but I'm not sure because the house wasn't really hot anyways. I'm not really quite sure how I got there but I found that I wasn't in B's house anymore, and was convinced that I was on a bed on a pillar, in the dead center of a Volcano at the height of the rim while the lava was a good ways below me.

What is going on? The start of my adventure has already began:

So at first I was a lil worried as to how I got on that volcano but I figured that it was just the drug making me think I was there and that helped keep me calm. Not to mention that B was there cuddling next to me, worried as to why my face was red and burning hot. I explained to her that it is a reaction from my body because my brain thinks its on a volcano and she said "Woah, thats amazing! Can you like, see the lava?" I couldn't with my current mindset that it wasn't real but I quickly decided it would be more fun if I just let the drug take over and believe it was real myself and told her that indeed, I could, and that she should stay close to my bed so she doesn't fall off into it. She was confused because to her, I was just laying on the floor in her living room with no bed or anything but she said that she trusts me and that everything will be ok. (I should mention that I have told her a bunch of times throughout the time I have known her that when people are tripping, that positive influence [ex: saying "everything is ok" "you are fine" "you are safe" and stuff like that] will help keep the trip in a positive mood and can help people who are tripping bad become more comfortable) We were at that pillar (it had a bridge on both sides connected to the rim) for quite some time, as it seemed like we were traveling and this was the first stop because we set up camp here. It was really cozy after getting used to the intense heat and I quickly fell in love with the situation. After what seemed like 3 months to me, about probably half an hour or so in the real world, I decided that we should probably change locations and she suggested that we could go up to her room so we could be alone (I told her that most people will trip better if they are just around 1 person, as compared to a few, at least, with new trips anyways) and so we went to her stairs to climb them to her room.

The next stop, camping on top of a snowy mountain:

It was roughly 3:30pm when this took place. (Since time didn't apply to me, I kept asking B for the time so I could report this trip for you all =3) We reached the foot of her stairs (not without difficulty though because I was walking really weird, something I wasn't used to and had a little trouble adjusting) and started climbing them. I started first and was using my hands to help. (normally isn't neccesarry but right now it felt like it was) B was right behind me and soon I found myself laying in her bed, on top of a mountain somewhere. I quickly noticed that I was not dressed for such weather and asked for B to get a big blanket and cuddle with me for warmth. At this point I kept zoneing in and out of this trip but I mostly remember us just cuddling for what seemed like forever. It was at this time that I noticed that everything seemed to be moving in frames and that each new frame was posted on top of the old and it had a weird stobing effect (hard to explain, just one of those things you have to experience for yourself I guess) and that often I had to have one or both eyes closed to see (for some reason I found that I could actually see perfectly fine with my eyes closed, kinda odd sounding, but its what I experienced) Eventually B started to get in a mood and started messing around. I told her that I had read that meat pleasures (food and sex) don't apply anymore, along with many other things but she wanted to test it for herself. She was a tad bit disappointed but she was like, oh well and we kept cuddling for a while. Even though it looked like we set up camp here in the mountains, we were still in this bed, and not in a tent, even though I did see them, but I didn't see any people for any reason and wondered why there were soo many tents, or when we even set up these or how they even got here. I kept zoning in and out more and got distracted with thoughts I don't even really remember but after what felt like another 3 months (probably 30-60 minutes) her mom called for us to come back downstairs. I tried my hardest getting out of that bed, which was a little bit easier than what was about to come, the decent.

The mountain side turned into stairs? & How long have I been in here?:

[It was probably like 4:15pm or so at this time] As I was nearing the edge of the mountainside I was noticing that the snow was not actually cold, I knew it was cold, but since I was soo detached from my body, I didn't actually feel it. I sat on the edge of the mountain, as B quickly ran down it. I was confused as to how she could do that soo quickly and thats when the mountainside turned into stairs again. I was pleased because I thought I had asked it to turn into them so they did. I still had a lot of trouble with decending the stairs though and felt like I could fall at any time. I made it down perfectly okay and we both went quickly into B's brother's room (he wasn't in there at this time) and we layed on the bed and cuddled more. For some reason or another I told B to turn on the Xbox 360 and start playing Left4Dead and she didn't really try playing it because she isn't good at games with controllers that have a lot of buttons and so I said just come lay back by me. (I felt really distant from her at that time anyways and wanted to cuddle again because it comforted me majorly) I'm not really sure what mostly happened but I remember that every couple of days she would leave for something and be back within mere momments to stay with me for a while once again (later confirmed that her mom was wanting her each time or something like that) and that for some reason my right eye just wanted to be closed for long periods of time. After what seemed like 6 months (probably an hour or two) we left that room. It was now probably around 5-6pm or something and I could slowly feel this incredible trip leaving me. I don't really remember a whole lot what happened here but I remember spending a lot of time with B (still with time distortion on, so it probably wasn't as long as I thought) and at some point experimenting with my lagging mind, one example of this was when I decided to try jumping. I stood up and jumped but my soul lagged behind it and I hit much later than when my body actually did. Apparently B thought my face was sooo priceless after that one jump because she busted up laughing. Later we were watching B's dad play Left4Dead and just cuddling on the bed with her just enjoying every minute to the fullest. (with time distortion on still) I'm still not for sure when I eventually stopped having time distortion but eventually that went away along with half of the disosiation of my body. Now I was just mainly feeling a general numbness but slowly feeling sensations return. One of the most noteable sensations to come back was love. I instantly felt love come back with full power and told B that and she was sooo happy to hear that it was the first sensation to come back and that it further proves that I really love her. I also noticed that I could keep both eyes perfectly open now and that the reason for my right eye closing was to stop the images from strobing (I barely noticed that they had been stopping whenever I had my right eye closed) I then started to feel everything else comeing back into focus slowly as I was nearly done with my trip.

The last conclusion of my adventure, the final momments of DXM and an interesting rebirth:

It was probably around 7pm when nearly all effects of DXM were done with and over. I instantly noticed a bad headache and noted it was probably the hangover that people had talked about when I was looking into this the night before. And ate something for the first time then and kept resting so my headache would leave. I then decided to try and play expert mode on Left4Dead because B's dad said the 2nd level was impossible and me being soo good at FPS's I was up to the challenge. I was pretty much back to normal and found that the first level was really easy, but that indeed, the 2nd level was impossible (I think I was playing just a touch worse than I should be playing, probably from the hangover) and gave up on that. I remember frequently letting B know that the reason I had this "hangover" was from low seratonin levels or something and that it was a bit taxing on the brain so it was to be expected. After the hangover went away, it was like 8pm and B and I cuddled up next to each other and watched Supernatural for the remainder of my stay. After the hangover did go away, I quickly noted that I felt incredibly wiser (like I really did spend a year in this one day) and better resistent to hot and cold temperature and things (I could stand being in hot and cold places better, and I could eat hotter things than before without burning my mouth as much) and immediantly noted that this trip was more sucessful than I could of ever planned and quickly thanked the DXM for providing me with such an experience. I then left at around 10pm and headed home.

Arriving home and closing thoughts and advice:

After arriving home I did a few things in which I could notice a quicker response time than ever. (ex: grabbing a fork and accidently dropping another one with it and was able to catch it with speed I usually aren't capeable of) I honestly think it helped improve my reaction time, my nerves, and my brain function while improving my personality and better defining my personality. I also think it made me incredibly wiser as if I really had spent a whole year in just this one day. All in all I take from this the upmost respect for probably the most helpful drug to me in the world.

Overall I found that this trip was incredibly enjoyable (as most of my trips with DXM usually are) and that this was more helpful than I could of ever imagined as it helped define my personality and helped adapt my body to more changes in temperatures (for a long time I have cursed my body for getting too hot too fast and this seemed to help it completely) as well as teach me a lot of little things that made me much wiser than I could of asked for. I am filled with incredible joy as to how perfect this trip was.

My advice:

To those of you that are wanting just a nice body buzz and not exactly a "trip" DXM is still my first choice because I absolutely love it more than Weed, K2, or Alchohal (those being the only one's I've tried) and I find that nothing really tops it but the only negative is that DXM should be spaced out, for small doses (First, or low Second Plateaus) should be done with AT LEAST, if not more than, 1 week in between for it to be a safer bet. For medium doses (Medium-high Second or low Third Plateaus) I would say AT LEAST, if not more than, 2 weeks in between for it to be a safer bet. For those that does high, I don't really know from experience but I would say no less than a month in between but I have no experience so I won't really say anything more.

For those looking to get the same kind of trip I got, I have some tips for you:

I think not eating could of been bad but I'm used to going without food a lot so it doesn't bother me with or without, and so if you can do without for a while, I would suggest doing it with a nearly empty stomach to better enhance the trip.
I also highly recommend that you be in familiar ground and have at least one person near you that knows what your on and what to do if such an emergency arises.
I would also say that it would be a good idea to personally research and familiarize yourself with all the Plateaus and their effects and dosage needed as well as the lethal dose of DXM. Then do some figuring (just trust me and do it) of exactly how much mg/kg your going to be getting and compare that to what you just found out about the Plateaus and the lethal dose so you can have some piece of mind and feel more free to trip, knowing you won't be in danger of dieing from overdose. [Remember, that I'm not saying it won't happen, but I'm a firm believer in placebo, and I think that if you think you will be safe, that you generally will have a higher chance of being safe, than if you thought for even just a momment that it could end bad]

I really hoped you enjoyed this trip report, it is my first one I have ever made (and first trip to every really have enough value to post it on here) and felt like adding a lot of details because I figured it would be better. I do apologize for the length of my posts and apologize for not following the instructions of keeping it all in one post but for reasons I had to space it out as it was my way of saving where I was at, since I'm on a wii, it will have a random tendency to lose conection and re-connect within seconds and that will make me lose my place if I don't post it before it does that. So to make typing this more easier for me, I did what I did, but I don't think there was any wrong in it, and think that there was really no other way for it to be done. I hope you all enjoyed reading this as much as I enjoyed typing it (Which I did =3)

Goodnight all and happy tripping <3

*Edit: I now remember a small side effect but I think it was more of a conditioned side effect than a drug induced one. Since it had felt like I spent a year without really eating anything at all, the next day (September 12th) I ate enough to feed me for days. Like, nothing I ate could fill my appetite. My thoughts are that is hightened my matabolism to some degree but I don't know if thats the drug or my mentality doing it. Any ideas?

I'm not quite sure how I was able to have such an experience because I didn't think DXM could do such things but the 3rd Plateau is completely new to me so I don't really know. Anyone who has had any DXM trips, I would appreciate your input on if you've had any trips with any similiarities as mine. I love you guys and enjoy hearing nearly every trip report posted by you all, thanks for having such a wonderful site =3

No one wants to comment or give their bits of info? That's fine I guess, although a little boring if anything...I almost kinda feel left out, everyone one else, good report or bad, gets people to comment...did my length scare people off? Not even a mod gave his 2 cents...did I really overdue it? I thought this site was supposed to be informative...and thats what I was/did...oh and to report:

It is currently September 13 and I still have a mega increase in mood. My quality of life is still increased. And I don't notice any real side effects apart from there is still a tiny drop of time distortion but I think that may just be because I've been stuck home for 2 days straight...so stratch that lol. But for real guys, I would like a comment or some kind of feedback =/ I worked pretty hard to write a really good and accurate report =/

I could answer a question about the plateaus. 1 & 2 are body highs, 3 & 4 are psychadelic-like, while 5th is full anesthesia (however it's spelled) But there is another one, that is often referred to as 5, but it's been given a name from Erowid called Plateau Sigma. Unlike the other plateaus, this one is induced by taking the right amount over a period of time, rather than a certain amount. (basically, dose a low 2nd plateau dose, 3 hours later dose a medium to high 2nd plateau dose, then 3 hours later dose 2nd-3rd plateau dose. Supposedly its time distortion is something unlike any of the plateaus and will last until you fall asleep, or so its said)

Addictive properties? Eh, wrong person to be asking, I have a very addictive nature, but when it comes to drugs, for some reason I'm not. Plus I get into my head before I do any drug that I should be extremely safe (ex: for this drug, I know that its bad if I don't wait a certain amount of time before doing it again) and so I may want to do it more, but I know better. I really don't notice a drop of addiction, although I have heard of it happening before. Just don't do it very often and you should be able to avoid it. I gave this to a couple of my friends a couple times but they only do it with me, so they are spaced out as much as mine are so they don't feel addicted either I don't think. Some food for thought =3

Oh, and yeah, you think its a lot of time distortion, but just wait till your the one its happening to, it just feels like there is no end, which I like xD I was starting to get a tiny drop sad that it was wearing off, but it took forever for it to wear off too, so I thanked it for the kind and thoughtful comedown =3

JWH? What's that? Are you referring to K2? I don't know terms very well xD sorry for my lack of knowledge.
 
Nice report. I really must try this 'DXM' soon, seeing as I love ket so much, and this report makes me want to try it even more. I actually checked the local chemist and they have it.....

Expect a report soon!
 
Oooo, try to research a tiny bit so you'll know what to expect so the results won't make you uncomfortable so you can enjoy the trip further =3 I'm looking forward to hearing yours when you have it ^^
 
Oh I see, well I don't do it anymore. When it was popular around here it was called K2 but then it got banned or something and it's not around but another one that is really close to it (forgot what its called) makes people pass out, even off of just a hit or 2 so I just completely stopped with the fake shit xD
Regular K2 pink was the shit, this other stuff IS shit =/
 
Absolutely no side effects to report after over 2 weeks. And after 1 week, I was able to take a small dose of whatever my gf didn't take (I think it was 10 pills, which is hardly anything for my weight) and felt a nice body high for about 2-4 hours (it wasn't completely noticeable but it came and went in waves for about 4 hours total) and I plan to take a lot (probably 40) in about another week or so. Along with my gf who will probably take two 10 pill doses (one after 3 hours) and I'll definately make sure to post that one when it happens so stayed tuned ^^
 
the only time I tripped was around my x-gf. I told her I had chugged cough syrup and was also peaking while I told her...that night on she never looked at me the same....

Its good to have someone you can trip like that around...
 
Yeah, you gotta be careful which people you tell, especially gf's, because those that don't understand will look down on you nearly all the time sadly...and ewwwy cough syrup, pills are better =3
 
On my highest dose, it seemed like years had passed. I thought when my mom came into the ER for the tenth or twentieth time that she was now well into her 80's (she was really more like 62) and I asked her to stop making trips to see me because she was too old to be making long trips to the asylum.
 
do you still feel a mega increase in mood? i tried DXM once, had a great time with it though i didnt hallucinate, maybe only second plateau? after the comedown til a few days later, i had a huge increase in mood.
 
First time i did cough syrup i was in an amazing mood until i ended up throwing an egg at someone (dunno how got the egg) and a mob almost beat me up. So since that time, my mood on DXM has never been the same, I get really defensive and edgy and swear alot. So i dunno if its just me but if a trip goes wrong, it could ruin future experiences.
 
I shat bricks when I read you typed this from your Wii. I'M ON MY FUCKING WII TOO BRO, LOOK --->☆○◇□◎◎△™©®βγδξθηζλεκλμνΘΔψχφωυ΅ΦΣΥΏΎΌΊάςώύόϋήΐ
 
reading that made me feel like I took some dxm....brought back many positive memories while not remind me so much of negative aspects and experiences. II probably hit the third plateau a few times, but this made me remember one experience well when i was leaving the second plateau (robot walking, frames, similar to pcp) The third plateau seemed to reunite my mind with my minds eye and must have increased the seratonin levels because all of a sudden you feel similar to taking mdma. It really sounds ass backwards in many ways but it does occur. I have seen one friend dive into the fifth plateau but I am curious moreso about the fourth. Since I won't be using it for anything other than to aid in opiate withdrawl, some cosmanaut should describe the 2-4th plateau ascending.

Also it sounds like you and your gf are in a honeymoon phase...I mean that as a compliment and if you have been together for a while, then all I can say is keep it up.
 
Wow, I think I've been gone for a bit xD not really expecting soo many people to post on here all of a sudden.

Ok so to reply to people...

Sam_22: Not really much, it definatly lasted more than a couple days, maybe a week and a half actually. It was really miraculous ^^

Thanks GordonMilky for the advice, I haven't had a bad trip yet, so hopefully my luck holds up ^^

Pulpo: Haha, I would be on a computer, considering I have 2, but no internet ^^ So the neighbore is loaning me his, secrectly xD

Robatussin: I know exactly what you mean about the mdma-like feelings, it's a really amazing aspect about this drug. I think I could probably go to the fourth plateau if I wanted to, I currently have 600mg, and I could get another 300mg more if I wait a week or two. I think I might just do that. So in a week or two, expect a 4th plateau DxM trip report =D

EDIT: I almost forgot, expect a LSD trip report within a week as well, should be getting Saturday (tomarrow) and either trying it that night, or Sunday. I'll try to remember as much as I can for Bluelight ^^

Last bit of info to give:

I have recently had my LSD trip and DxM trip. The LSD one is already posted, 2 hits, was a blast. The DxM trip I took a dose of 18 pills and hit mid 2nd plateau and then 2 and a half hours later I dosed up again and took 20 pills and somehow ended up in plateau sigma. It was a very hard to remember trip, and occassionally scared me here and there, I will try to type a report out sometime, but it's really hard to remember it.

Oh and as for the huge mood increase, that doesn't apply with plateau sigma unfortunately.

~Be safe and happy tripping everyone ^-^~
