 DXM

[lovemaster]

ive tried dxm at about 100 mgs...didnt really take off anything as useful as a proper psychedelic...def. felt way dissasociated.  and the next day my equilibrium was way off,  leaning into wall kinda feeling, the only drug ive ever done that i felt did some damage to the noggin

oh yeah one time though i was swiggin some robo and had a really great drunk kinda high at 30-40 mgs..before i imbibed i was sick as a dog, an hour later i was leading an inspired and unlikely singalong

100mg is an extremely low dose.  Most people consider 300-400mg as being a low dose with more typical psychedelic doses being around 750mg or more.

Perhaps a p450 deficiency?

100mg is an extremely low dose.  Most people consider 300-400mg as being a low dose with more typical psychedelic doses being around 750mg or more.

The following is for general information purposes only. I do not currently use DXM and I do not recommend others use DXM for any purpose:

Jesus. 750 will floor someone without any experience with DXM!

Lovemaster, I don't pretend to be a DXM guru or anything, but I have a lot of experience with the substance. For the love of mary jane, DON'T TAKE 750mg your first time! I'd suggest that interested people theoretically use two doses of 300mg taken three - to four hours apart depending on what the experience is like. At 300mg, if you get excessively dizzy (moreso than being drunk), can't recognize faces, everything looks "cross-eyed", feel like you can't stay awake but without feeling tired (!), are having OEV's, time dialation, "track skipping", can navigate effectively while everything is blurry, or are generally "tripping out" you might be especially sensitive to DXM, if this is the case don't take more DXM it'll just get crazy weird and potentially dangerous, not so much OD, but in the form of freakout or bad judgment. You might also want to cut the second dose to 100-250mg if you had any effect at all at 100mg. Remember, DXM is cheap and readily available. There is no reason to over do it.

You won't want to be inside, and the experience is best when you have someone tripping with you. DXM is very uncomfortable when you stay inside. I'd suggest one should consider going to a very large park or natural area where the tripper can keep distance from others. The person taking DXM feels all fucked up, but I've only felt that "they're on to us" when I was in a position where I had to give directions. Avoid this.

You might feel all lovey and want to help your fellow man, and helping this poor lost soul is part of some divine plan connecting everyone together to form the perfect, anarchist utopian society - remember, your directions prob. won't make any sense and will just make you feel nervous. Just  stay calm and collected, take a split second to "turn off" and respond with a simple "I don't know, sorry". Usually people don't seem to notice no matter how weird you might feel after an encounter. But always remember, no matter how much it looks like that little old lady is tripping, she's NOT! Unlike other psychedelics, DXM gives the illusion that everyone around you is also tripping, this can sometimes e a bit confusing.

It's best to avoid traffic entirely, but inevitably sometimes you find yourself in that situation. Always, always, always use traffic signals. Take the train if you can (buses are kinda weird and might make you feel barfy). No matter how weird you think you look waiting for the green light, the cops aren't going to hassle you for following traffic laws. Time dilation can be extremely strong on DXM, so it's nearly impossible to judge safely when it is safe to cross the street. On smaller streets, unless you can count the blocks, and even then, I generally wait until I don't see any cars at all.

I would also suggest that anyone to take 25mg diphenhydramine to deal with nausea and itchyness. Itchies might sound pretty benign, until you're in the thick of it, itchies are the fastest way to bring on a bad trip. If you feel itchy just remind yourself that it'll end (and it will) but try not to rub or scratch! If it gets bad, just breath calmly and focus on what you are looking at. It will end in about 15 minutes.

You do also realize that while "swiggin robo" you are taking in a lot of other substances like sorbitol that have illeffects?

why I avoided syrup back in the day... shit is nasty and ALWAYS comes back to visit. Stearic acid isn't fun either, but at least it's not syrup. Using tabs, keep some antacid around... The spray is best for a strong 480mg. Is it even still available? Gelcaps are super clean, though expensive.

[2a]

has anyone else noticed a slightly sweet taste to the gelcaps mentioned?  its always seemed like swallowing a big mouthful of candy.

and yeah, 750mg is on the higher end, but I think it also depends on what type of experience one is looking for.  IME 350mg isn't anything close to what I'd call a psychedelic experience and others I've conferred with verify that.  So like always, know yourself, your substance, and your body, and above all: take it slow.

[foreward]

I think also it is important to note that DXM is not a traditional psychedelic, and at the higher end is often a bit on the dark and creepy side. I am not really sure there is much you can compare DXM to.

Once my wife turned into chopped fish on a plate. I have never encountered a material which can so readily and so vividly transform your self perception into inanimate objects. Still, these transformations are pretty profound, and I have learned a lot from higher doses, even if it hasn't always been as "user friendly" as, say, shrooms.

But at 300mg, it all just depends. At this dose it's either pretty groovy or not much. I remember watching a concert in a nearby park. It was some Spanish futurist composer, not sure who, but I had visions of people running up bell towers, hanging banners of fascist propaganda and giving soap box lectures about doing away with the old ways of thinking and reinventing a "new europe". Other times I'm disappointed. If you can get something at 300mg, though, side effects aren't usually that bad.

yah i checked the active ingredients, only dxm for me... i sipped lightly on the n*****...drank a fair amount of d***** extend release and things got heavy.the first time i did it it was on gelcaps, dont remember dose but know i ate about 13, so 175-325 mgs.  it was heavy and things were fucked up...prolly never be my drug of choice tho

[foreward]

it's prolly my choice, but to each his own. it's definitely not an easy drug.

Be careful about dropping name brands, it's considered revealing sources.

[ST1R]

I believe u's point was that "inactive ingredients" can be quite active/ have effects, when large amounts are consumed

[lovemaster]

yeh u guys r smart and helpful...and ive been keepin the mods busy w edits my bad dudes

[2a]

its cool, you'll catch on.   

[pharmanimal78]

One other thing. Please don't use txt speak. We converse in real, honest to god English 'round hyea...

Thanks.

[pylkko]

ROFLMAO

[lovemaster]

so many little rules around here

[DrYRHead]

BTW, I'd also say that 750mg could be a high dose to dream about for those with out a tolerance.

[Moo]

I love that honest to god English.
Also would love to see OTC gobbling stop, since a simple ammonia extraction is all that is needed for pure crystalline DXM (w/ certain products, this statement's validity may vary).

[foreward]

ehh, moo. I don't know. just get a good clean source like gel caps if you're really worried about it. syrup sucks, prob should be avoided. but caps and tabs aren't too bad generally speaking and less expensive gram per gram.
