Meth and DXM similarities?

[MySecret]

I've used DXM for 6 years as a tool to help me gain money, power, women, as one could with meth. It made me feel like the smartest man in the world and life was amazing, wonderful and perfect, most of the time anyways. I could break things that would seem impossible to break. I'm talking about bending a galvanized steel wrench in half. Typically, I would never be able to do this but when I do DXM in low doses and achieve the afterglow effects and combine them with Amp energy drinks, I basically become Superman.

I thought DXM was a psychoactive. I thought it was more similar to LSD or shrooms. The doses I would consume on a daily basis was an average of 240 mg to 600 mg. My body weight is 150 lbs. I am very sensitive to drugs though. My mom is 5'2" and 110 lbs and she can drink more than me by far. I would drink 3 or 4 glasses of wine and be completely shitfaced and she'd be slightly tipsy. We drink maybe once every 2 months.

Does DXM cause me to be sensitized to other things too?

This being said, I have always wondered what the high from meth was like. I tried it once, but I did not get very high. I just could not go to sleep no matter what I tried to do, no matter how tired I was for a day. I did not enjoy it at all. It didn't even make me feel speedy or anything. I felt the same as if I was sober, only couldn't sleep.

Maybe everyone has different reactions to different drugs?

I sure am glad that I didn't get hooked on meth though.

The reason I posted this was because I read this after searching what the highs from meth were like.

This is what I found:

"Imagine the feeling you get from the one thing that interests you the most. Think about a difficult project you've completed and the feeling of pride and self worth you got from it when finished. Imagine what it feels like to be the smartest person in the world. Remember the most excited and energetic you've ever felt in your life. Take all of these things and multiply them by a thousand and there you have the basic feeling of meth."

This is how I feel when I do DXM.

You have an interesting reaction to dxm. Sounds more like another dissociative (PCP, all those media horror stories). I've always felt... well disassociated. I've never tried to accomplish feats of strength while on dxm. Hell, I can barely walk, doing that roboshuffle, haha. And in the afterglow I just get a big dumb smile on my face and fall asleep after a bowl. It's been years since I used dxm though, it was more of a high school thing for me before I found more sources for illegal drugs.
And you didn't really end on a question, not sure what you were expecting in reply.

I've felt dissociated before while on DXM but it has also made me feel extra friendly towards other, as well as extremely paranoid. I would say that DXM is can be very unpredictable at times. I try not to not end on a question but sometimes I just get so caught up in what I am typing and forget that I meant to add a question or ask a question in the first place. I mainly just like to debate and discuss the current topic in a thread that I may post. I love reading feedback and opinions in responses from others, and being able to visualize how others view things on related subjects. Thanks for your responses!

Wow, that's certainly a strange reaction to DXM. I generally find it difficult to do much of anything on DXM besides lie around and space. And talking to people was generally out of the question, 'cause I would not be terribly coherent, and I'd be very disinterested in talking to others in the first place. Granted, it could also have to do with dosages - I've always done about 500 or 600 mg of DXM at a time. Perhaps lower dosages could possibly have that effect? I know with oxy a small dose would make me quite sociable and gave me sort of speedy high - it would take higher doses to give me the more typical sedated opiate effect.

Low doses of DXM can be somewhat euphoric to some people. Sounds like you got cut meth though.

I thought DXM was a psychoactive. I thought it was more similar to LSD or shrooms.

It is a psychoactive. So is LSD, shrooms, caffeine, alcohol, nicotine... they are all mind altering substances and that is what psychoactive means.

Try taking Mucinex DM with the 600 mg of DXM 4-6 times daily, spread evenly throughout the day. If it works for you, on the first day, you will notice the effects after a few hours. The next day, the afterglow is the best part and the afterglow continues on a daily basis after you continue the self medication as directed above. You can start off with 2-3 tablets to get a jump start. Slight urinary retention may be noticed and Amp energy drinks significantly increase its effects (the DXM buzz and afterglow). The euphoria is not overbearing but slight. You can take great deep breaths and is quite enjoyable. I guess you just have to see for yourself, but I can't promise it will work. All I know is, it works for me and if I could take it every day, I would, but it can cause problems between family and this is why I stopped taking it. I grew dependent on it because it makes life... manageable and you will find it easier to gain power. You will find ways to make loads of money and clean the house, etc. I would very much relate it to meth after you've been doing it for a few days, but the effects are much faster. You will probably experience hallucinations, though.

Hey! I have found that I react the same to both meth and DXM the same as you. After taking DXM for a few weeks straight I became worried that I had become insane. I worried about this because after over a week I started to feel like everything was too good to be true. I believed I had figured out the secret to life and everything just made sense, but yet at the same time nothing made sense. I stopped taking it because I started to get really scared that I had become schizophrenic and I would see reality the way I did for the rest of my life. I came to believe I possibly even entered a parallel dimension. I ended up having an unending panic attack combined with delirium for over a week. The thing that scared me the most was that I might say something to someone and not remember, or hallucinate something someone said to me. Basically, I became scared of everything. When I wasn't freaking out it was nice though because I became very productive. I cleaned my room to an extent I never have before. I always used to like a messy room, but after I took DXM for a while I realized how disgusting my room is. I noticed that I could play video games at a new level (especially tetris). So yeah, I think the main thing with this drug is know what you're getting yourself into because it can be hell if you don't... I mean it when I say it can become hell because I personally came to believe I was in hell.

That sounds like the dissociation illusion. My little stint w/ Ketamine left me in a state of outwardly chaotic, inward bliss.

Also - my one experience w/ DXM (a couple years ago), I drank "half 'a big bottle, and half 'a medium bottle of Delsym" and 2 hours later I felt 40' tall and extreme empathy toward all other beings.

^ yep agreed (the first part, never taken DXM so can't comment on the second part!)

Ketamine can induce some very strange states, especially with chronic/high dose use - it brought on a psychotic-type episode on someone I know, with similar symptoms to what you described.. it disappeared entirely in time though, with cessation of ketamine use.

This is an old thread Mr E Man - thank you for sharing your experiences and warning, but I'm going to close this. Feel free to start a new thread if you have any questions (although DXM/ketamine/other dissociative questions now go in the Psychedelic Drugs forum) or try The Dark Side forum (link in my sig) if you are still concerned and would like some support..

PM me with any queries
