DXM suddenly doesnt like me....

[Andie_toxxxic]

in the past i used to robo trip up to a couple times a month (usually once every two months tho)... I did it for two years and had nothing but great trips!

But suddenly... the past three times i have robo tripped I have gotten hyper, and a bit irritable. I kinda have a minor freak out and rapid breathing. then i itch (unless i take a benadryl) and then i puke, i have a couple more hours of feeling good, then its over and i wake up sick.

I was robo trippin' with a friend the other day and he said i did everything very quickly, and paced around a lot. He said i was up and down a lot.
Why havent I been just chilling out when i trip!? I smoke weed during to help with the nausea

Next time im going to trip with him and he plans to help me slow down and try to get me to just relax.

also, the last time i tripped i got SUCH bad gas that wouldnt pass, omg i swear i have never felt anything so terrible in my life. i am not a pain wimp but that HURT!!!!!

I guess my questions are...

Why does dxm suddenly make me hyper? it wasnt like that before!
do you think my nausea is caused from me moving around so much? i do get motion sickness....
also, what can i do to help prevent the gas? i hope i never have that experience again.

one more unpleasant experience and i am DONE with robo!

I also wanted to ask, the next two days or so after my trip my stomach feels like shit!
any pointers on what i can do to prevent/alleviate the "queeze" stomach?

thank you all so much! i used to have such a good time with it, and my friend really enjoyed it (it was his first time the other night)
i hate it that ive been having a bad time with it

I trip with about 50 of the waltussin pills (has dmx only) taken over the course of about 2 hours
and i aim for the third plateau

If you read William White's writings on DXM on Erowid you'll see talk of the 50 trip limit. After that it sours for a lot of people. There's no reason given, it's just an observation. It always sounded weird to me, and it hasn't been my experience (I've definitely done it 50 times over 15 years), but maybe you're at a 12 time limit, who knows. You might try just quitting for a solid 6 months or so to see if things reset, but if you're one of the limit people say good by to DXM.

Tolerance, IME with dissociatives, is not a gentle curve upwards of diminishing effects, you just notice one day that you're not getting the desired effects (at least, not the anesthetic, ego dissolving ones). You could try taking a lengthy break (always a good idea), and not using more than every few months, take grapefruit juice beforehand as a potentiator, or try increasing your dosage more significantly.

your metabolism might have also changed, the rate at which its digested and converted can also drastically adjusted your trip ... IMO but thats from at least 500+ trips...... the 50 trip limit is bollocks
