Hello, Bluelight. This is the second in my rehab journal series. This dates from January 1, 2006. I heard some chitchat about writing a letter to your drug of choice, and I decided to do it. So, here it is.

---

I must be truly insane. I'm in love with my first drug. A fucking cough suppresant. An accident, the bastard brother of codeine and the cousin of Ketamine and Phencyclidine. I love you, Dextromethorphan. You've made me experience sensations beyond my wildest dreams. I feel like I've truly become whole, thanks to you.

The honeymoon has just ended and we've gone our seperate ways for now, but it's all for the better. I'm learning new things here. I'm learning that I never should have taken advantage of you. I should have treated you with the respect that you deserve. I was ravaging you and you pushed me away.

Everyone's saying I should forget you, and treat each day apart from you as a miracle. But each day that I count, I live on thinking of you. You live on inside of me, with all the lessons I've learned from you. So that's why we should separate for a while, so that we can both learn to stand on our own two feet. My dependence to you was eating away at who I was emotionally. I need to feel emotions for other people. I need the balance back in my life.

My heart and soul belonged to you, they could not fathom the very thought of being without your warm caress and your pure dissociation from petty worldly matters as we became one for hours on end. But I need to find a higher power that gives and doesn't take, a power that has no selfish desire nor gives into selfish desires of my own.

We've cut down a path for others to follow in our otherworldy passion, if they choose to. Now I need to find my own guiding force, someone who is able to lead me on my own trail, so that I can blaze a trail through life. Don't worry, we'll see each other again, and we'll soar the heights of ecstasy like in times past. Maybe even higher. But I need to work on myself first. I hope that you understand.

Sincerely,
Your Shaman
 
I really liked that...very insightful, and I can definitely relate to the idea (as a lot of people here probably can) of having a relationship with a drug which has been responsible for opening your mind and changing the way you view the world and live your life.

You have set some cogs turning in my head, I might see if I can be inspired to write something similar.. :)
 
PS: Please stop making me violently ill and seeming so inferior to ketamine!

Seriously though I liked reading that :)
 
Wow!!! Remember how I couldn't believe that the guy posting in the Dark Side was going to rehab for DXM addiction, this helps me understand it so much better.

But how do you compare DXM to ketamine? I rate the latter as the french champagne of the two. I could never see how anyone could choose DXM over K.
 
^I can compare DXM to ketamine because they act similarly on the brain.

Thanks for all the appreciation. It took some guts scribing this out of my journal onto Bluelight. I'm glad it was recieved so well.

AG! I'm going through some DXM addiction right now..eat about a bottle of gelcaps a day. Like to tell myself its not addicting, it cant be, it fucking cough medicine for christs sake but eh...im proving myself wrong. This is insightful... :D maybe ill do something of the same on another drug take my mind off dxm
 
^It's cool. The only reason I didn't get to that rant first was because I felt that I already shared my opinion with the piece I submitted.:)
