sorry im new here i didnt know which thread to post this in, and didnt want to make a new one.Male, 155 pounds currently 19 years old. My first time was @ 17My first time taking triple C's, my friend was told by someone (my group of friends smoked pot daily) about Coricidin. So we all went to walmart and I jacked 8 boxes, my freind jacked 4 boxes of them. they immediately swallowed some, i didnt take any because i was questioning myself. so later i get home and i take 4 and by the time i was going to go to sleep, I started feeling high and i was very energetic haha. so i went to sleep and took 8 the next morning when I woke up.After taking 8 Triple Cs that morning, I went to school and it took about an hour and a half to kick in...then i took another 8 when i started feeling it and doing 16 for your first time is INSANELY DANGEROUS without a tolerance. next thing i know, i was sitting in class and time became suddenly slower and I had weird tunnel vision that had this "Fuzziness" fading on the edges of my eyesight, as if i was looking through a scope. my vision was very near sighted, anything past 10 feet was so blurry. I went to the bathroom and looked at my self in the mirror. I freaked out when I saw myself, all my friends told me not to look in the mirror too! I looked like a freak of nature, or some ugly outcast. It was weird.Later that day I go to gym class and it was very sunny outside, and my visiion got worse, instead of the fuzzy tunnel vision, it was now BLACK fuzzy tunnel vision. I could only see in the center, which was blurry. I had absolutely NO periphial (spelling) vision at all, it was almost like I was running around in a dream! I was in gym class, so we had to run outside and I had all the energy in the world! and I had no fatigue at all which was surprising. I felt like I was on STEROIDS. I had superior strength, and non stop energy. I ended up running a mile around 5 1/2 to 6 minutes If I recall correctly; finishing first in my class haha which was surprising. I was so sweaty after that, and i was pretty hot so i didnt go to my next class, and I went in my truck and had my freind drive me to my house and I smoked a cigarette. Smoking cigs on DXM gets you incredibly buzzed (lightheaded rush) more powerful feeling than smoking a cig for the first time! all my friends thought the same too.My body was sooo numb too, I would tell someone at school to punch me in the face because it was so numb, it wouldnt hurt at all! haha I ended up punching myself so many times that my whole side of my face swelled up huge! but i didnt care because it was fun to do.Thats how I fell in love with Triple C's (Coricidin Cough & Cold)Just the fact that I felt like I was on steroids, had tons of energy; and was also a "cigarette enhancer" got me hooked right away. I am usually a lazy pot smoker. Even at work, I performed so much better when I was on DXM. But when I took too much, I had impaired speech, sometimes I couldnt move my lips to word out my sentences and it sounded like i just said "Fpppffhh phheff".I than began taking it 5 days a week, or every schoolday. from 8 pills, to 10...then on to 12 and then 16 pills daily!!! this went on for about 3-4 months until walmart finally put it behind the counter, and you had to be 18 to purchase it! The reason why Walmart put it behind the counter was because me and my friends would go out to every walmart in town (we had 3) and steal dozens of boxes at a time, just because we were highly organized at theft in big box stores, and I was the most experienced and the best shoplifter out of everyone we knew. they would stock up the shelfs with 2 rows of 12 triple Cs sometimes twice a day, and we would get it all!!! we had so many boxes, we ended up selling alot to kids at our school, and i feel bad for getting half the school on DXM. we would just hand them out to people and they would come back and buy them. we made alot of money. we would take the pills out of the box and just sell 16 at a time for $5, $10 for dumbasses...we didnt want anyone knowing where and how we got them. we even smudged the candy coating so they couldnt see the C C C logo.Its been a couple months since i have done DXM. i stopped for at least a year, got my tolerance back now.
