My last DXM experience *woah*

[gnat]

I haven't used DXM to lower my tolerence to opiates but wow my last experiences was something else.

I used to drink 4oz of Robo MaxStrength Cough almost everyday after lunch. That wasn't the most I have drank and re dosing has proved very potent for me in the past as well. I always experienced signifigant disruptions in my perception and vision. Things would blink from big as hell to small as hell, my perception of objects would change every few seconds. I was fun of course, and I swear sometimes I drank so much I thought that this must be exactly what it feels like to die and go to hell. Overall I have very fond memories of dxm though. I did it often enough that it really was affecting my health. I've always been thin and being that a bottle of robo would make me feel full for 4-8hrs I continued to lose weight. So I finally got around to stopping and never really felt like doing it again.

Fast forward to last month. I get a hair up my ass to try some gelcaps after reading on the net about my old love. So I buy up several different kinds of gelcaps and pop a couple. I was going to slowly dose up to around 300mg. Ever since I had stopped long ago, if I ever needed robo for a cold my body would get completely fucked up even from a teaspoon. I would get all hot, dissy, nauseated etc. This is why I was dosing slowly, I didn't want to get sick. Well after I about 6 and started to feel it I wanted to lay down. I fell asleep. Well I woke up about an hour or so later and stood up to realize I was gettin off pretty good. Someone called, and I talked on the phone for a few mins and it was a little difficult so I cut the conversation short. I went ahead and took the rest of the pills. I started feeling bad again and laid down again. Wow, I can't believe I fell asleep again just day dreaming. Great, maybe I can sleep it off.

I woke up again. I went to the restroom and I was totally fucking blasted. I was so far out there it was just unbelievable. I couldn't move without having all the heavy feelings I remember as good but for some reason they were bad now. Every movement was attached to nausea and I was hoping I would get past that like I used to. Well I lay down again and try like hell to sleep. I end up in some other state I believe and the feelings throughout my body were far beyond intense. It was probably 4am by now and I started this whole thing around 11 or 12. I felt like I was burning from the inside. All of my nerves, feelings and sensations were of fire. I felt as if I was burning my nerve endings all at once. I can't explain it. The only thing I can compare it to is the rushy feeling of opiates only to the point of pure burning pain. It was way too much for me, maybe I'm just getting old. It had probably been a good 12 years since the last time.

Wow is all I can say. I managed to put myself out again with alot of pillow hugging and rocking in the infant position. I swear to God I actually broke my pillow. It was a cheap pillow but it was near brand new. The next day I looked at it and it was all lumped up on over half of it. Not little lumps but it was straight fucked up. Anyways about 7 am I wake up and can't get back to sleep. I'm totally fucked up. Finally I was over the feeling bad and the most intense part of the trip but woah, I was shitty and it was obvious it wasn't going away anytime soon. I was fucked up ALL day long after being fucked up all night long. I'm sure it was my fault as I think I dosed 3 times throughout the night but damn, I tried to sleep it off. It almost felt like it was in a wait state while I was asleep and I only worked my way through the trip while I was awake.

My g/f was going to dose with me but she fell asleep before I got around to it so I was fucked up by myself. Not a problem though, she's done it before and she knows how it feels so she was sooo totally helpful and supportive all day. Thank God for her, she really made things easier just by not being a bitch about it. I waited most of the day before I took any hydrocodone but when I did take it, I really didn't get much from it. It seemed the same for days! I'm serious, it really felt like I wasn't getting off on my hydrocodone or avinza when I took it that week. I felt like I had burned my receptors or nerves!

Anyways, enough from me. I just thought I would share, maybe someone else has had a similar experience. If you have, please chime in. I know alot of people say it helps drop your opiate tolerence, but I guess that's in smaller doses. I can say for sure it had a negative effect on my opiate use for at least a week. Sorry my post went so long, it's obvious the opiates are working again :D

Wow man that's a fuckin trip and half. I've only tried DXM once and obviously it wasn't anywhere near that. Scary but great story

[skeletontea]

absolutely insane! i don't think i've dexed in about a year (use to do it somewhat frequently.)
i'll undoubtedly try it again sometime.

one thing i found interesting about dxm is the inconsistency of the nature of its effects. it was usually its own unique substance, but occasionally would effect me like psilocybes, and once it actually felt like oxycodone. i suppose these states pertain to separate plateau's, but it was almost always the same dosage.

[schizo]

Damn yeah, dxm can be really intense sometimes yo. Just a little while back I also decided to revisit this interesting chemical and it was pretty intense. A buddy and I drank 4oz of some robo max but we could only get it in polistirex form so it was like time released. When it kicked in I get that similar burning sensation all over but I find if I smoke lots of weed with it, the drug becomes more enjoyable. Music is really really intense on this shiet I had several like damn near out of body experiences. The second my high wears off I started feeling that shit like you were talking about. I had a bad trip like yours a long time ago when I drank like 12 oz of robo max strength and I am pretty sensitive to the drug. I seriously got all these crazy suicidal ideations and just kind of rolled around on my bathroom floor shivering for like 8 hours crawling to the bathroom to puke every so often....... I seem to almost always have bad experiences with dxm though.... your either one of those people who enjoys it or doesn't..... gotta be carefull with it

Sorry for bringing this zombie back but I thought it necessary as I'm trying to go clean from subs atm... on day 3 and I was wondering if any of you have used this in small doses to kind of curb your aches or nerves.

[rockbottom]

i always use 300mg--it produces a good but strange trip---confusion and somesort of time travel shit

yeah that used to be my normal dose but now I seem super sensitive to it. I don't necessarily want to trip, i just want to know if helps now with aches or other opioid/opiate wd symptoms.

I think it's helped me a ton in withdrawals. First time I tried to get off pods and the w/ds started to get bad, I took maybe 100-200mg (can't remember the exact dose, it was less than a tripping or very psychoactive dose but more than therapeutic) and actually slept a few hours. Didn't feel all that good, sort of nauseous and hot (never got that even taking 300mg+ for psychoactive effects) and couldn't distinguish sleeping, waking, and dreaming all that well. But I didn't feel the terrible muscle aches and general physical shittiness of withdrawals nearly as much, so I think it was far preferable to taking nothing.

Every time I've gone through withdrawals since then I take 100mg a couple times a day and it seems to help a bit, but I take with a few other meds like clonidine and propranolol so it's hard to say which ones helping the most. I'd definitely try it if you've never had a bad experience on it, since you have, I'd be careful though, you don't want to have a bad reaction and have to ride that and withdrawals out.

So, IME, it helps some at low doses, at medium doses it has the shitty physical effects I sometimes get from it, but it seems to cover a good deal of the withdrawals. That could just be because I'm focusing on the DXM feelings, but either way it helps me. There's no way I'd take a really psychoactive dose, I've never tried but I don't think a trip could go well when I feel like hell from withdrawals before I even take it.

thanks... I think I may try something like 50-100mg when I don't have to work... (after tomorrow). I hate to even say I had a bad experience because of the hundreds of wonderful times that i've had in the past. But I must say the last one was rough as hell.

Yeah I don't use the stuff very much, about 2 weeks ago was the first time in almost a year actually. I just figured what the hell one night since I had no work the next day. Well I only had a bottle but my memory was pretty spotty but I know I struggled to make it to the bathroom to piss a couple times and eventually put on Shpongles "Tales of the Inexpressible" on my xbox. I just had a lot of wild thoughts and when I have used it, I have a tendency to want to move around so much. I love just rolling around on my bed for some reason,lol.

It's different for everybody but it's a rare thing I do, I haven't tried it to lower my tolerance though. It might be worth a shot however. I just hate how sometimes the aftereffects linger way too long

Yeah the effects lasted a long time for me the last time I used it but it used to not do that when I did it regularly. It was about 6hrs and that was it. The last experience kind of has me hesitant about doing any amount again.

I also used to love to walk, I walked funny in fact, my friends knew when I was on it because of my robo walk. I would make odd movements/walking and so did all my friends that did it with me.

wow, just looking at the date I started this old thread is crazy... it was almost exactly 3yrs (3yrs 5 days) to the day that I brought it back from the dead.

[blutuesday]

I have never done that shit, but someone told me to do it while I was in w/d to help them. I decided against it and Im glad I did.

Though, I did used to drink syrup with crushed up perc 10s and vikes in them wayyyyyyyyyyy back in the day which was always a NICE buzz.
