Why I Despise DXM

[HCL89]

Well, it was about 6 hours ago, and i was sitting here with my homemade rig, made from a cut-in-half 1ml syringe melted to the end of a 10ml barrell filled to the brim with CWE hydrocodone and i thought to myself.... "I really hope this works". It didnt, not well enough atleast.. because i did something i took a vow to never do again. Trip on DXM.

Any of my past experiences with this demon substance have been awful, i dont know why I thought this time would be different. All my friends enjoy it very much so.

(Sorry if my thoughts seem a bit scattered, currently high on DXM and i hate it)

So anyways, i go raid the medicine cabinet and come across triaminic... hmmm, childrens cough medicine, oh wait, only active ingredient DXM HBR... BINGO!

now i always had a hard time downing the foul tasting nectar that in my mind, is what the inside of a prostitutes womb tastes like. but this stuff was "Berry Punch" flavored and completly clear...

I went ahead and downed it with a cup of orange juice, only right after i drank my HydroLatte...(coffe, 7 vic 7.5s, and milk)....

Since the first hour passed after i took it ive hated myself..
DXM doesnt give me an enjoyable high... i would like it if i didnt make my body, especially my stomach, feel soo weird... Its a very uneasy feeling that i get deep in my gut, and i DESPISE it...i would rather eat 2 strips of acid then ever do DXM again.. This will be my last time.


NOTE: If theirs something that im doing wrong, or should be doing to actually enjoy a DXM trip, please, please let me know

If you have nothing against herb, smoke some. It always eased any of my stomach issues with dxm, and brought the experience to another, much more enjoyable level.

[HCL89]

unfortunately, im currently on probation. I LOVE Marijuana, and have been a toker since i can remember... but the probation/ drugtest every other week thing sorta ruins it for me

[maniak]

hey HCL 89
i have been tripping on dxm and been enjoying it a lot.
what really fucks up a dm trip is whn u drink or eat whn ur high on it.
dm will mess up ur stomach if or if not u have anything. but if u feel thirsty thn let cold water be the only thing tht u drink.
smoke some ciggs it helps.
plus to enjoy tripping on dm close ur eyes nd listen to some music .ull start seeing patterns in no time.
hope it helps.

I tried this DXM once, to help with WD, i downed about 500mg at once, and an hour later fell face first on my bed for 6 hours. If i moved even a little bit i felt like shit, so the only option i had was to lay there until the effects of dxm had gone away. I can not say it did not help with WD a bit, but after I did take a vow to nvr do that shit again. Personally after heroin i hate ever drug, so its all pointless bs that will lead me back to black sooner than later.

[Opiophelia]

After heroin I started to hate every other drug too. I dont even enjoy smoking pot much. The only things i like anymore are benzos and opiates.

Dxm...yuck. worst high ever. If it's legal, it probably sucks.

[SHELLEY]

thats so weird because i loved heroin and i love pretty much every non hallucinogenic drug

[chemboy7]

Yeah, Heroin meant I had less money to spend on them... but I still loved me some drugs.

To the OP, I'm with you on the DXM. I wouldn't say I despise it, but it certainly isn't my idea of a good time. I like most other dissociatives though. Can't wait to get my hands on some MXE.

[ausativa]

when i do dxm i immediately go to try not to go into projectile vomit mode.

[i8op8s]

the only time SWIM enjoyed dxm trips was when SWIM had a pure extract of it..it came on quick. and felt like a extremly drawn out khole.or .any other time if SWIM drank straight Robo.. always hated the uneasy stomach..and got these extremly uncomortable penetrating down to the bone like a long pin ithces, all over, very uncomfortable.im guessing its an allergic reaction to another ingredient in the syrup...Not the good opiate itches which SWIM loves and misses..
SWIM also has been known to use small amounts that doesnt create the uncomfortable feelings. mentioned above.to potentiate e and k. in the past.

[Freakazoid]

I have tried DXM twice and I felt pukey both times. The ONLY reason I even tried it was because I was on probation and it was the only thing I could do that would not show up on a screen. That stuff tastes so nasty I can't get past it. Blech.

[Nagelfar]

The problem seems not to be the drug dextromethorphan/DXM/DM/dex in this case, but the syrup mixture everyone is abusing to get the dex out of it.

My friend used to get pure DXM tablets for colds when he was stationed in Korea in the army. He had to eat, I think he said, upwards of 80 pills (don't know the milligrams so don't quote me), but it was otherwise smooth (besides requiring the hardened stomach in getting them down, there wasn't the queasiness of anti-histamine additives and flavoring like with cough syrup.)

[chemboy7]

There used to be quite a few online vendors that sold DXM as a RC and it had the same negative qualities that I got off the syrups (the ones with just DXM anyways). In fact, some of the nastiest experiences I've had with DXM were with the pure chemical.

[Thanat0s]

so what exactly were you wanting from it?

sounds like you just wanted to get off on SOMETHING.
if thats the case DXM aint likely your drug.

my suggestion?
read more about it first and learn to either appreciate what it has to offer or just leave it alone.


NOTE:
to whoever posted "if its legal it must suck..."
um, heroin from a sears catalog?
MMJ?
or any substance on earth prior to hysterical legislation?

wait till the shit IS a controlled substance and youll likely be so excited to get a chance to buy some filthy blackmarket dxm at 50$ per gram, pining for the 'good ole days' when you could just walk into any drugstore and just buy a dissasociative anesthetic with nmda/ opiod tolerance reducing properties. hell at a gram + the shit can put some LSD trips ive had to shame...

you poor uninformed folks.
RTFM next time, eh?

[PoppyLlama]

it's definitely shitty for gettin high on ime, but as an opiate tolerance reducer, it works very nicely. (look up nmda agonist effects on opiate tolerance)

[robothanded]

thanat0s, one of my favorite internet people. I take it when I need to and because I need to. i choose to not fiend for heroin or any other opiate again. DXM helps with that. Though, not just DXM. quite the plethora of hallucinogens, specifically DMT can put me were I need to be and be set for a while. Granted I've been experimenting with OTC speed at the moment(propylhexedrine) I do feel it's controllable for me and has been.

I actually owe thanat0s a thank you. You pointed me toward DXM i believe when I was coming off of something... either heroin or suboxone or hydromorphone... don't remember. But it worked, not like some mythological drug that completely wards off w/ds, but allowed me to go through the w/ds with less agony, but the kicker here is after the physical w/ds end.. i would keep taking it in doses that would completely unleash that monkey on my shoulder so I could live my life.

[Defense34]

DXM is the single most hardcore drug i have ever taken, I love it. Weak stomache people im sorry, but its rough and ya gotta deal with it i used to take 16 oz of robotussin ( 960mg dxm) and jesus did i get fucked up, you know wha im a take some dxm on friday after the PO, its jus such a fun trip being in that wierd no body all mind go anywhere youre a time traveling ghost mode!

[borohydride]

^If that is your aim, will MXE not do a better job?

[Defense34]

^If that is your aim, will MXE not do a better job?

perhaps it will but i am not too savvy on the internet rc thing , so alas its tussin for me

[spicybrainsgirl]

DXM is extremely interesting to me, but specifically what I would call "fun", but super interesting. In my opinion it's as far away as you can get from an opiate high, so if that's what you were looking for, or even a trace of it, DXM won't help you. In low doses it really helps with PAWS though, so I wouldn't give up on it completely?....

[Albert King]

smoking a bowl of herb while coming up does wonders for me.... I used to go to the moon with DXM when I was younger, now I just use low dose dxm sometimes to potentate stronger opis


one time I had no choice I was sick as a dog from real opiates and I downed an entire bottle of DXM before work in hopes of using it like a ghetto methadone..forgot there was a meeting that day...luckily I wasn't as sick but I sure was feeln out of my body to say the least..

[Obomber306]

OP that's funny that you call DXM a "demon" substance because every time I have tripped hard on it I thought to myself "This is what hell must be like." I think the key to this stuff, at least with me, is "less is more." If I just take barely enough for like a 1st Plateau trip then I have a good time but when I have gone beyond that I start to have a lot less of a good time. At the 2nd Plateau i always feel like I'm losing my ability to feel anything. My arms, legs, etc are always weirdly kinda numb and feel like they're floppy wet noodles. This can still be fun as long as I don't have anything stressful on my mind, but because the 2nd Plateau is where I start to get a little tripped out I have to be in a good state of mind to enjoy it. Then there's the 3rd Plateau... at this stage I am almost invariably worried, about something. Even if I was having a good time before I start to trip out on whatever has stressed me out lately, work, money, etc, and when it really starts to hit me I start tripping on weird ideas that I just invent because of the DXM. It's strange instead of having visual hallucinations like with acid or shrooms, I will have these emotional and hallucinations. Kinda hard to explain, but when I'm at the 3rd Plateau my mind will make up things to worry about and the worst part is that it lasts SOOOOOO long. I always want it to be over way before it ends. Usually I enjoy like the first hour or two and then I'm just praying it will end soon for the next 6 hours. At that point my mind is starting to go back to normal but I'm still physically in a drunken like state. But yeah, gnarly shit, and like I said, whenever I'm tripping hard on it I think that must be what hell is like and then that thought makes me trip harder. Vicious cycle, crazy ass drug...
