    I accidentally took too much once and I did not like it. I decided that I did not CARE what it would take to stop a bad cough. I probably took about 1/4 of the small bottle (4 oz?).

    I would not say it had me hallucinating but my vision was distorted. My head was filled with cotton.

    I am very careful with DXM now because of it.

    ---------edit

    I forgot to mention that it made me damned near projectile vomit.

    Absolutely, and I would recommend everyone try an experimental dose to see if you like it or not.
    Always use products that have ONLY Dextromethorphan Hydrobromide (DXM HBr)as the listed ACTIVE ingredient. The other active ingredients can cause severe vomiting, rapid heart beat, ect. Anyone who has overdosed on "Triple C's" (Coricine Cold and Cough tablets) will tell you that.
    Dosing can be a difficult task because DXM "trips" are variables dependent on your weight and the amount of DXM inside the medicine you are taking. I strongly recommend you visit a DXM-truth website such as http://www.dextroverse.org/ . They have a HTML copy of the "DXM FAQ" that gives you all the information you know.
    Rule ONE in any drug situation is to know what is going into your body before you take it. Anyone just taking shit they find without researching is asking for trouble. Remember MODERATION and RESPONSIBILITY in your trip, and I hope you enjoy it.
    Also, disregard anyone who hasn't taken the drug themselves and tries to give you advice. That's like following a blind man's directions to a destination. No help there.

    I always feel like I am dreaming. Everything is always different and intriging.

    Sometimes I blackout. (only for 5-10 minutes)

    Some of my favorite trips:

    1. I was in English class. My english teacher usually spends a couple minutes talking to us and then we read whatever book it is we're reading. One day he just kept talking, but I couldn't hear what he was saying because dxm always gives me audio halucinations (people mumblingin my ear, ect.) A while ago I realized that I could change my dreams if I didn't like it or if it was a nightmare. So, I decided to "change my dream." I asked him for a pass to the bathroom. I don't remember getting a pass, walking to the bathroom, signing in.... I just woke up on the bathroom floor. Thankfully noone saw me :)

    2. I was waiting for the first period bell to ring and when I looked down the hall it was slanted. (I always compare it to the titanic when it sank.) I thought the school was sinking. Then I went inside my class, and the whole room was just floating in the middle of space. My desk kept leaning forward and backward and I could actually feel that my feet were forced upward against the floor that was "raising." It was fucking sick.

    3. I was on my way to class. I don't remember where I was going or where I was coming from, I just remember "waking up," like from a blackout, leaning against a wall. The bell rang and I realized that I wasn't dreaming, I was in school!!!

    DXM is fucking sick and I love it!!!! My mom sent me to rehab for it twice, so I would be extreamly careful with it but I advise you not to do it at all! It's mentally addicting. I did it everyday to cope with school, and my social anxieties. Once I was off it I was misserable. It got to a point where I wasn't even getting high anymore. Many people die od'ing on that shit, so I really stress staying away from it!

    If you feel the need to abuse substances, there is most definitly an underlying reason why you do. You should really look into that and get the thearapy you need to cope with it. The only place drugs will get you is locked up in jails, institutionalized, or dead. Think about it first.

    If you ever need someone to talk to, I'm here. Seriously! I really fucking care. I'm not just saying it. I don't care how stupid you may or may not feel asking me, if it ever crosses your mind, then just ask! Seriously :)

    I can't stress that enough <3

    I've done DXM lots, but my most amazing experience on it would have to be
    the day when I was walking to the park with a friend
    and there are peacocks walking around the neighborhood, and at the time I was playing Pokemon lots, and I couldn't decide if the peacocks were pokemon or not
    but I just sat there, by a green box while my friend was talking to this guy that become our tour guide, but I'll get to that in a minute.
    I was just sitting there by this green box looking at the peacocks. I didn't see anything around me besides them. I was trying to catch them with a pokeball and I remember talking to myself while I was doing this. Everything around me looked white. I finally snapped out of it and asked the guy if he could show us the way to the park. Everything looked like a dream, like it usually does when I'm on DXM. I kept calling him the tour guide and he showed us the way. So when we got there, I noticed there was this guy sitting at a table and I thought that was really odd. We went in front of him and just layed there and talked about pretty much everything, then forgot what we were saying like 2 seconds later.
    Later that night when I went home, I wrote some stuff down and came up with some pretty interesting concepts.

    I found that Zicam Max cough is the best! It still tastes horrible, (kinda like cherry bubble soap) but it's like 400mgs or more. I have done dxm so much, but not everybody enjoys the experience. Some people just feel dizzy for 6 hours and sick to thier stomachs. I saw in double, hallucinated, and it was kinda hard to walk.

    dxm, had to be one of the best trips we've ever had.
    it was an out of body experience, so whatever we did
    we saw ourselves doing it. we went numb, but also,
    we had taken extacy, before, to add to the high.
    one of us ending up over dosing, but the other was fine.

    It's very simple. If you know what you're doing and plot out your doses correctly with the experience you want, then you're likely to LOVE it.
    If you dont know what you're doing, you're pretty likely to take too much, and if you do that, then well, there goes your fun time. I've been doing DXM for about two years now, and I've done pretty much every source there is out there for it [even though these days, I usually go with a mix of coricidin and max strength tussin]. I say just read the DXM faq on www.erowid.org, and you should know everything there is to know to be able to have tons of fun with it.

    It's FUCKIN nuts man i love it. If somebody touches you it feels nuts. Everything is different and intriguing. Your eyes get dilated like black holes and everything seems to slow down. Your body can't really feel pain and sober people seem like TOO much. Triple C's really make me feel great DXM is an amazing drug. Totally Euphoric.

    I used to do DXM for a few years and usually liked the third and forth pleatues the most. I used to feel like an alien and think everyone's reactions and emotions were weird or strange. The environment around me was platic/cartoonish. I named it myself as "Picture Vision". Definately movies with bugs, aliens, or violence would weird me out but also lure me in at the same time. I'd close my eyes and the darkness would dissappear and I'd see in full detail: landscapes, dragons, people, and even imagined myself flying at times. If I'd ever get hallucinations, which usually I didn't, they'd seemed blended in like they were in a wall in the environment. Sometimes I'd hear voices from an outer source. One time a guy on an infomercial narrated everything I was doing in my room at the time. Kind of weird.
    I've totally left Earth while lying in bed a few times, and gradually made my way back to reality. When I come back into reality, it took me a few seconds to realize where I was. Sometimes I would forget where I began.
    I'd meditate a lot of DXM. It's a great drug to contact outer sources and use spiritually. Negetive effects are how it makes you feel like an "alien", makes you interested in finding Aliens, and makes you question life and how weird it is.
    I'd recommend this drug for a few uses but no more. Unless you want to swim with the worms and aliens for the rest of your life. That's what it feels like.

    Oh, DXM...
    My experiences with it have been incredible. Though it isnt really pysically addicting, I was quickly mentally consumed by it. As an artist it has helped me a lot. Most of my best pieces were either thought up and/or created while on DXM. The way music just completely fills you is amazing. On DXM, everything is absolutely beautiful. It always sent me right into a waking lucid dream, usually pertaining to outer space. Anything is possible mentally.
    DXM is like many things, but nothing is quite like DXM.
    Through all the aliens and other beings I've encountered whether they are of my own subconscious mind entering my consciousness and only seeming separated in a dissociated state of mind or if they really are out there, either way it is incredible.

    Currently I no longer take DXM. I am grounded because of being caught with it and in counseling for it. My family doesnt trust me anymore.
    Unfortunately, DXM no longer works for me, even the highest doses merely just make me feel slightly drunk for a couple hours... no music euphoria, vivid dreams, alien encounters, or any of the good effects. I believe it has something to do with the "50 trip limit" and tolerance.

    Maybe it is for the better that I'm off of it, but part of me hopes the magic comes back some day...as I adore the DXM state of mind more than anything and I can't even go a few moments without thinking about it.

    I could go on forever about DXM but its probably better if I go eat lunch now, ha.

    The drug has really changed me as a person and now I currently spend just about all of my time creating art, studying chemistry, outer space and the paranormal and philosophy. Though it will never be the same without DXM.

    I was actually able to get myself off of drugs and alcohol by using DXM. I am a drug addict/alcoholic in recovery and I used it to get off booze and I think it has done wonders for me. Doctors and POs dont want to hear that, but its true...and Im a nurse....but that is also ME. I have a VERY high tolerance to opiates and was knockin back a good bottle of vodka or so per day. My addiction began with pills for legitimate pain...turned to shooting 225mcg/hr of fentanyl IV---yes that is correct...I dont think any drug can kill me because once upon a time I wished they would have. I was physically dependent on Tramadol...then went to booze cause it was cheap, easy, and legal!!! DXM saved my life...I take it in 200 mg doseages about 3 times per day....it allowed me to still have the "buzz" that I need, but I can focus my thoughts and have amazing energy. I have completely turned my life around and have done some amazing things thanks to DXM...you can over do it however..you need to find the right dose for you for maximum functioning, otherwise you just get too messed up. Its a fine line between energy/focus and being messed up. It will come up in a drug test as a false positive for PCP-just learned that. But has a short half life...so lay off for a day before a test.....nobody wants to hear that you are taking OTC meds for a purpose other than what it is approved for, so I just keep it my little secret so I don't have to put up with people's shit...and I'm on probation due to past drug charges which is how I know about the drug test, but I just tell my PO its cough medicine or I can get artificial urine because I don't feel anyone has the right to tell me whether or not I am allowed to take an Over the counter medication!!!
