Mars on Saturday evenings.
I weigh 170 lbs. (77 kgs)


Which would amount to 5.1mg/kg; a perfect match to this indicator I found online that tells how much should be taken to reach the 2nd plateau.

I would've liked to have reached the 3rd, borderline 4th, but I didn't have enough. As a matter of fact, the homeless guy that bought it for me bought the exact amount I took, and kept the rest of the money for himself, (dillhole) said he donated it or something.

Onto the report:

T 0:00 Started sipping away at a mixture of 20 mg's dex in a bottle that had 355 mg's pure dex cough syrup. Got an anxiety high almost immediately, as I usually do when doing something new. Watching netflix movie "Seven Samurai"

T 0:20 Finished it, felt a head change. I had eaten an apple an hour prior because I heard that the citrus from grapes would change the high, but I didn't have grapes. I don't know if apples change anything. I was also really hungry, but didn't want to eat anything as to not waste the dex (It's better if you take on an empty stomach).

T 0:30 Smoke sum K2 Summit. Haven't in a month, but I wanted to combine these two to see what would happen. My timing was WAAY off, as you'll see later. You see, I had only gotten a headchange from the dex, but I thought it was in full effect already. So, I was expecting to hallucinate. I was pretty faded from the K2, and decided that I should meditate to help bring out some hallucinations. I did this for a while, I feel like I was thinking random important things through and solving them. For example, I figured out why I am always paranoid, it's because I breathe through my chest, not my stomach. I am training myself, now sober, to breathe through my stomach. I got flashbacks of being a kid, watching my shirtless belly breathing, and compared to my teenage self watching my upper chest move up and down, and saw why my heart rate was always too high when high on K2 or Mary Jane. Basically, one of your average "highdeas," if you will. There are numerous things I have discovered that help with everyday life on other highs I've been through, but those are different stories.

T 1:00 I am sobering up. I had walked back inside after meditating and playing with a rock outside for what felt like a long time. Decided to watch the final hour of the movie, "Seven Samurai." I felt normal, then a little later I felt what I felt earlier come back on, but it was such a slight change in the way my thought processor for the movie was going that I didn't notice until I ponder upon it now, as I write this.

*So basically, even though I drank the dex, and smoked K2 after, the K2 high was soo shortlived that it died out before the dex was even halfway through kicking into my system. It was a cool feeling to get a free high after what I thought was me sobering up.

T 1:15 (Approx.) I stand up, and feel EXTREMELY dizzy. I am drunk, that's the best way to describe it. I didn't feel like this before, I know that for sure. I wasn't very smart, and I was thinking that for sure I was coming down off the dex. This changed everything. The high from the K2 was fun, but had passed. I meditated through a lot of that. Now, I feel like an energetic drunk. I would stand up straight, and fall and place a foot waay out and catch myself. I had a lot of energy, and all paranoia was gone. I repeat, all paranoia was gone. Even though the 400 mg's kicked in, I felt a little more,free. I went to my room and shut my door, my brother being right outside playing the pc. I was soo excited to leave the paranoia and enjoy this different high, back 2 back from the other, I was able to properly compare the two. Dextromethorphan, at the 2nd plateau, has a strong influence on the body. My body was numb, I was walking like a drunk, I was flailing my arms around because they felt like they weighed a lot less, but most of all I didn't care. I could walk and talk normal (aside from slurred speech and some studdering) but it was a lot more fun to sway around. Another 20 minutes pass, and I don't have the option to act normal. I feel pretty drunk, and I can see how taking any more would cause hallucinations.

T 1:55 Peak. Everything looks to have 20% more neon in it, and things that are far away (mountains and some other stuff) look like they are 2D. If I focus hard enough, I could see some little dots and stuff, but that's it. It felt like a waste of time to try and focus on CEV's. the feeling of airy drunkeness and the neon colours of my room were much more interesting. Turning on music made me feel whole. So whole, in fact, it gave me energy. I think it was some Metallica album, that made me feel so energetic I had to get out of the house. I walked out, powerwalked to the wild desert. I walked 1/4th of the way, ran the rest, my arms loosely bobbing up and down. I felt like I was falling a lot of the time, probably because of the dips in the earth. I would land in thick, dead tumbleweeds, which put a shitload of stickers (AKA thorns) under my shoes. I made it to this dirt road, and laid down, for maybe 5 minutes.

T 2:00 I walked back, I got some paranoia. I couldn't believe I was out in the middle of the desert, what if my mom came home. I would have to walk back and explain a lie to her through slurred speech, that I went to a friends or something. It didn't bother me as much as it would if I was high on weed. In fact, it didn't bother me much at all. It was just there, I was conscience of it. I thought that was hella wierd, normally I am the most timid person ever. Whenever I get high at a party, I don't talk I just sit in a corner. Now, I was running the wilderness just because Metallica fired me up.

T 2:30 Was back at the house, just chilled and finished the last like 2 minutes of the movie, maybe ate food I forgot. A basic comedown, no nausea. Felt fantastic after I got out of the shower.


Fuck hallucinations, I had fun at the 2nd plateau. Although next time, I will take a dosage of borderline 4th (If I get enough). Overall, The Dextromethorphan high was pretty chill in comparison to the K2. The K2 put my heart rate at about 130, and the Dex put it down to 65. I am always monitoring my heart on various drugs, due to the high risk of hypercardia, which I don't have to worry about as much now thanks to the highdea of deep breathing ;D

Patiently awaiting replies
 
nice trip report, thanks for it. but it seems that the high was extremely short lived - only around 1 and half hour. Thats rather different from 4-6 hours that one can find online... Thanks.
 
I would recommend a solid-low 3rd plateau before you start messing with the fourth. The difference between a 2nd plateau high and 3rd plateau high is night and day. On the third plateau you leave you body entirely, and it can be quite intense if you're not ready for it. Or don't listen to me, experience is the best teacher, I'm just putting in my two cents here.

Just out of curiosity, how many times have you taken dex? I've been experimenting with it the past several weeks and have only attempted one 3rd plateau dose, and it scared the shit out of me. However, now that I know what to expect, I think I'll give it another try in the coming weeks. So far I've found the 2nd plateau to have the best recreational effects, though. Read my "Back to Back" trip report if you're interested in how a first time 3rd plateau experience goes (at least, how it went for me).

Also, what kind of syrup did you get? I've never had a trip last fewer than 5/6 hours.
 
to be honest my experience with dxm (and any drug), you can try to measure dose to achieve plateau effects, but that same 400mg can whoop your ass.

and that seems like quite the short trip
