(DXM w/ Xanax and Alcohol backup) - Quite experienced - "I found DXM's G-Spot"

Ok, first same prefacing background:

The only reason that Xanax and Alcohol are even listed in the title are because I had taking them before I took the the DXM. I did -not- take them all at the same time, and this was definitely NOT a combo I wanted to just 'try-out'

This was a complete accident!

Also, since I was on a Dissociative, I'm not gonna be able to give any times as to when certain things happened. This is gonna be written more journal entry style, if that's ok :)



My intention for the day was basically, Take some Xanax, chill, do nothing special. So I took some in the early-mid afternoon (5 o'clock-ish) (5mg), chilled out, and did just that. Good times. Then around 12-1am, They had all but worn off, and I had another 4mg left, so I took those, figured I'd ride them em out a bit, fall asleep, wake up the next day, all's good!


Problem was, at around 3am, I wasn't feeling a thing from em, sure I was relaxed, but I wanted just that little extra kick, so I went and got a beer (A tall can of Ice House [24oz], so basically, the equivalent of 2 beers), from past experiences, I know I can have 2 lighter-ish beers on that dose of Xanax and not reach the dreaded -blackout zone-, which I HATE.

So, I finished off the beer (probably around 4am, chilled.... still nothing, the beer didn't help at all... and I wasn't anywhere near tired enough for bed (surprisingly enough, with that mean depressants in me, but most had worn off by then lol).

So...sitting there bored, I looked for a bit and found some Robitussin, yeah, I know, not the best place to get DXM from (In fact it was there because my girlfriend had gotten for a bad case of laryngitis a little while back) , but it' also readily available, and like I said... it was there lol.

So, I looked at the bottle and saw it was 10mg DXM per 5ml of liquid... I measured it all out, and the total amount in the bottle came to about 259mg. Pretty decent dose, enough to get the job down sure (I usually take 300mg, for a 3rd plateau trip).

My only problem with this, is EVERYTIME I've taken Robitussin as a liquid, I've puked... but, I said "Screw it" mixed it half-and-half with some soda and just drank the sucker a little at a time). I figured, if I threw-up, so be it, I'm bored, it'll suck for a second, then I'll feel fine afterward.


Only... that didn't happen... the complete opposite happen.


I felt it start to kick in, my stomach gurgled a bit, ok nothing expected. I was talking to people online, and I noticed it was becoming harder to hit the right keys... also, not unexpected, then WHAM, the main wave of it hit me...

The next few minutes are basically a giant blur, as the peak of the experience slammed into me like a truck (also, not unexpected ;) )

Then suddenly.... I was clear-headed... like a splash of cold water to the brain... it was weird. None of the usual confusion or disorientation that I usually get from DXM... I knew EXACTLY what I needed and how to get it.

I started up some music (Industrial and Synthpop radio station), put on earphones and just sat back with my eyes closed watching the pretty lights go by, but everytime I opened my eyes, it broke the illusion, I knew who I was, where I was, what I was doing, what I was on, everything...

I could have voiced perfect logical thoughts to others just fine, but if I tried to write em down, they were a garbled mess.

My mind HAD disconnected from my body, but hadn't gotten fuzzy or confused at all. It was like I want my eyes opened to be able to put words to things, but I wanted them closed so i could enjoy the "pretty lights" I mentioned earlier...


So I wrapped a blindfold around my head! =D

And it was great!, my eyes were technically open, but everything was blocked out so I was still getting the CEVs, and I guess since my body knew where my arms were, even though I couldn't see them, I could actually move my arms within this parallel lightshow universe I was seeing, and their movement would actually affect the way that the shapes and images flowed.

I was suddenly in complete control of a Dissociative trip! I could make it play out how I wanted it to... it was very weird, but absolutely amazing.

Best Part? I feel GREAT, I feel like I slept all-night, when I know I was awake the whole time (though I did take a short 2hr nap a bit later).


Out of all the times I've used DXM, I've never had an experience THAT good.






Postnote: As I said with the combo information above, that was unintentional, it was just the way my night played out, and to be honest, while I'm sure the Xanax did play a part in the experience (probably helped with getting rid of the anxious/confused feelings dissociatives usually give). I really don't think the alcohol played any part on my experience at all, it was the equivalent of 2 beers a couple hours before I even though about taking the DXM.

Do you have a tolerance to benzodiazepines? With those doses of Xanax, I wouldn't remember anything.

I've tried a dextromethorphan+alprazolam combination before, but using very modest doses of both taken at the same time. I actually felt as though the alprazolam lessened some of the exciting aspects of the DXM. I think I prefer DXM without a benzo. If you get anxiety on a DXM trip, I could see how it makes the trip better though.

Do you have much experience with DXM? 300mg seems low for a "third plateau" kind of trip (I'm not a fan of the whole plateau analogy with DXM personally).
 
I doubt you hit the 3rd platuea at that dose and tainted by those benzos.

3rd plateau usually includes full ego loss and often astral projection.
Sounds like you experienced a heavy 2nd plateau level trip.

FWIW, I think the plateau rating system is a good one, if you've been to all 4.

Yeah, I have a pretty decent tolerance for Benzos, 4mg (2 bars) is my usually dose), It takes at least 6 or 7mg (at the same time) for me to blackout from Xanax alone, but several hours had passed before I redosed, and the original dose was already (mostly) out of my brain when I took the last 4mg.

I am VERY careful with with Xanax doses, and know exactly how much I can and can't do, or can and can't drink while I'm on them... these are lessons I've learned the hard way

And I have quite a bit experience with DXM, and found that lower dosages actually work better on me than higher. When I first started taking it I would take 900mg+ dosages and ended up nothing but a complete confused blackedout mess (Plat 4) ... I found that I can hit the different plateaus at MUCH lower doses than I originally thought. Took me a few tries to find this out, but apparently I'm sorta sensitive the the chemical I guess lol

To be honest, I have no idea what plateau I hit in this particular instance (nor do I care lol). However, I HAVE have had very intense 2nd plateau experiences. In fact the first time I ever did it was 2nd plateau, and it was so bad, it almost turned me off of the chemical for good. So I recognize it when I see.... mainly, because I hate it... it's scary as shit lol.

Good to see that someone got something useful out of DXM. I have had nothing but disasters happen when I try to go the 3rd plateau....first I feel sick, then I spin, then I wonder why anyone in the world would choose this over something like LSD :) To each his/her own.

It's hard to judge a persons subjective plateau rating based solely on dose.
I found out the mg/kg thing the hard way. 700 mg has me on 3rd (I've been to all four). But in trying it with friends I advertised 600 as a fun, trippy dose. Mistake as one of my friends weighs 120ish (i'm 175, prob 165 at that time)--he blasted through to fourth plateau.

Yea, dxm tolerance is a bitch too, much like all the dissociatives are reputed to be. That's another factor; especially for a 'quite experienced' heading

But I agree with your designation based on experience. I drank 100mg through vicks syrup (as much as I could stomach), but took it with grapefruit juice and some k2, experiencing rather cool cev's and oev's without being slammed like in the higher levels.

and congrats etkamine
 
DXM has given me the most intense visuals I've had on any drug. You did it right, too: having your eyes open in complete darkness is the best way to encourage those "visual light shows".
 
LOL, dxm+alcohol+benzos=recipe for [THE HANGOVER PART 3 - "Totally fucked"]

Oh I agree completely (not to bump a dead thread, but it's been a few weeks since replied.)


And I've made the mistake of mixing alcohol with benzos and/or dissociatives in the past, and I PAID for it, BIG TIME. Like I said, I hate HATE backing out and forgetting my actions, these are lessons I've learned the HARD way, and now I know what my body can and can't take.


In this case, as I originally said, I was either coming down from, or just getting over the previous drugs I was taking. So I took the DXM.

I never denied that they (especially the xanax), played a part.... I was just relating a DXM experience I've never had before... I was definitely 3rd plateau. 1st plateau just make me giddy and hyper, I despise 2nd plateau trip, they scare ad confuse the shit out of me... and 4th plateau's just completely messed up, where I go almost black, and then eventually just makes me pass out. I've been through them all...

In this case, I hit the sweet spot...and it was awesome

I had regained the knowledge of who I was, where I was, and what I had taken from me.
I was on the verge for ego death, but then entered this weird state where I was like"THIS IS MY DREAM DAMNIT! I can do what I want! :p"

So I did!


Was it an impulse? Yup!

Was in interesting, weird, and fun as hell? YUP!=D
