Dissociatives [DXM Subthread] DXM Dosage - How much to take?

I always did as directed above, and also put on very droney, slow music and laid with my head elevated.
When I felt nauseous I'd grit my teeth and keep swallowing my saliva repeatedly. (Chewing, biting produces saliva)
Cacophonous (sp?), over stimulating surroundings provoked sickness for me. Also, interfered with OOBEs.

Always, that helped me through many intensely pseudo-pukey moments.

AND--->DXM can show up on drug tests as ...what. I forgot. Let me check...
Oh yeah, "high levels of DXM may cause false positives for PCP and/or Opiates"

My card got pulled at a plasma center once for that.
Ahhhh, the good ol' days...plasma centers = Classy.
 
I never throw up on dxm. I just don't, no matter how much I take. I have a strong stomach, always have.

unless your smoking dank, I advise you DON'T mix any other drug with dxm. Really wont make the trip better, only worse and some combinations can be fatal. A beer or 2 before you dose is also nice but that's about it.
 
See, personally, I'd never mix alcohol and DXM.
Maybe when you're coming down and the speedy part starts.
But, adding any kind of CNS depressant before voyaging on DXM sounds like a recipe for the ER.
Or your funeral. Crazy, how different people have found different things that work for them, I guess.

Listen to this man, I mixed 2mg Xanax, Oxycodone, and a very lose does (150mg) of DXM (first plat for me). I blacked out for 7 hours and could not tell you if I was asleep, awake, or what the hell happened. All I know is I woke up in the same place where I blacked out at. I was a regular user of both oxycodone and xanax at that time and could take 10mg of xanax without blacking out.

Mixing most things with DXM is a recipe for disaster, especially if you're new to it. I suggest trying it by itself before you start mixing things with it, and only mix it with cannabis. Save the other drugs for another day, as once you get to the good place with DXM you'll have little need for them anyway.

I don't have a UA for at least 2 weeks so I'm assumin it'll be out of my system by then.
 
I've read benzodiazepines can reduce any harmful effects caused by DXM, specifically relaxing neuron activity since DXM tends to overstimulate them and can damage their mitochondria attempting to keep up with the increased energy demand. Although I don't think there is any risk of doing damage unless you're dosing every day and don't replenish your body's nutrients by eating a lot and healthy. Also hydration is paramount.
 
DXM Advice~

I have procured some liquid containing 'active ingredient only' Dextromethorphan HBR 15mg/teaspoon. I've used dxm a few times before, and I used to enjoy it quite a lot (but this was back in my more adventurous days). What would be a good dose that didn't break into dissociation that still allowed for euphoria? I remember back when I used to get beyond euphoric but would often times find my cerebellum too fucked to really enjoy anything. I was thinking maybe the 150-200mg for a more euphoric/stimulating feel/range? Any suggestions?
 
IMO dxm is most fun at second plat, its a little dissociative but mostly euphoric and stimulating feeling, so I usually take 354mg. If you don't want any dissociative feelings why do a dissociative?
 
Don't get me wrong, I want some dissociative feelings, but I also want the euphoria @.@. 350mg is a hefty dose... hmmm.
 
I have ingested about 200-250 maybe a little over 250, like 260-270. Just kind of waiting for some effects, -sigh. @.@
 
I love low-dose DXM trips. Last week I took between 90-120mg DXM poli (bottom o' the bottle) along with some gabapentin, and it was simply wonderful, especially the next day. No negative feelings whatsoever. The mental effects are a lot like what LSD produces: expansive feelings with a desire to go out and take a walk through the woods. With small amounts of cannabis, the trip can be ramped up even higher, if so desired.

Higher DXM dosages do tend to become dysphoric. I should start a "Making DXM Euphoric" thread, to gather people's opinions on what drugs or supplements they use to make DXM more tolerable and fun. IME, gabapentin is great, and pseudoephedrine has promise as well.
 
Well, I took 240-260mg, I waited around for a few hours and didn't really get any effects. :( I waited around 5 hours, then I just went to sleep. It was mildly depressing. I had a large meal earlier that day, so maybe that is to blame? I'm not really sure. Any input?
 
Maybe next time you should try 354mg. It could be possible you just aren't a dxm person though.
 
Well, I've taken doses in the past of around 120mg (gel caps) and got pretty euphoric. I'm thinking maybe the dxm wasn't evenly distributed in the cough agent, and maybe I should have shaken the bottle. And also I had a large meal. This is one of my first times using liquid containing dxm. Kinda disappointed tho'. :/ I don't want to hit a higher plateau really. 350 sounds quite like a large dose to me.
 
I'd say just go for it. I'm 200 and even doses around 700mg proved to be euphoric, although highly dissociative and dreamy. It really takes quite a bit to get out of euphoric territory IME.
