Whats DXM

[Smokey McPot]

When you guys are talking about DXM do you mean you just drink cough medicine? I know people who have done that and puked. Do some of you take it a pill form or somthin?

[bedake]

it is dextromethorphen or somethin like that, erowid.org, its on the front page


its in cough syrup and cough pills
read the site erowid.org

dxm is an ingrediant in some cough medicines. it can be dangerous if there are other active ingrediants in the syrup.you need to make sure that dxm and only dxm is the active ingrediant.i dont know the name of the ingrediant that makes you puke but :rasta: i know it starts with a "gau" in the beggining of the name.

yup, you are correct. i dont do it, but if you wana get high off it (which is stupid) just drink a bunch of cough medicine, or look on the indegrdients for Dextromethorphan. dont be a retard and do it, just smoke buds. its safe

a waste of time and money

I'd say it's pretty damn good when you don't have any weed available. I spent $4 on a bottle of cough medicine a few hours ago and now I'm somewhere between drunk and high, and still have enough left to get high tomarrow night. Plus I had a cough and it's taken it away way better than cough medicine has at the recommended dose....

What else can get you high for ~6 hours for 2 bucks relatively safely?

relatively safely?

Several years ago, JW Olney discovered that dizocilpine (MK-801), a

chemical being tested to prevent brain damage from strokes, actually

caused damage to specific areas of the brain in rats. Since this time,

numerous other drugs in the same class (the dissociatives) have been

tested, and they all share this problem. As some of you might know, I

have spent a great deal of time trying to make sure that the Internet

community, and the larger world, has detailed information about this

complex, difficult-to-use, and often dangerous class of drugs. I first

learned of Olney's lesions a few years ago, but it has taken me much

time to review all the evidence, compare drug dosage within and across

species, speak to heavy dissociative users, and so on. I am now ready

to state my conclusions and make some recommendations, which are as

follows (explained in detail in the full document).



* Dissociatives definitely cause brain damage if used heavily.

One sub-anaesthetic "line dose" of ketamine, an equivalent dose of

PCP, or a third plateau DXM dose, is probably at least as damaging

to your brain as a few day "bender" on hard liquor, and possibly

more so because it affects specific areas of the brain.

* The risk of brain damage is worse the longer you stay high at any

given time; constant moderate-dose use is probably just as

damaging as a brief, high-dose use.

* Reaching the anaesthetic level is exceedingly hard on your brain.

* Ketamine is probably the least harmful, PCP the most, and DXM

somewhere in the middle, but this is a rough guesstimate. Nitrous

oxide is brief acting, but it too may be dangerous; it is also

known to damage both central and peripheral nerves by depleting

vitamin B12



Some people may be more susceptible to Olney's lesions than others.

There is, to my knowledge, NO way of knowing how susceptible you are.



In addition to brain damage, these drugs can also trigger psychosis,

limbic seizures, temporal lability, depression, and other neurological

and psychological diseases much more frequently than other types of

drugs. The dissociatives can be highly addictive to a minority of

users. In comparison, the marijuana and the serotonergic psychedelics

(LSD, psilocybin mushrooms, peyote, DMT) are many times safer.



People who have used dissociatives heavily have shown clear evidence

of brain damage. This is not necessarily conclusive, since the people

who become addicted to them might have underlying conditions

(specifically, temporal lobe complex partial seizures) which could be

responsible for some of the damage. Nonetheless, I can't ignore the

fact that most everyone who uses dissociatives both frequently and

heavily ends up with some sort of neurological or psychological

problem, ranging from impaired memory to a schizophrenia-like

syndrome. Many of the impairments correspond exactly to the areas of

the brain damaged in lab animals.



If you will not abstain from using dissociatives, there are several

steps you can take to protect your brain, ranging from limiting

frequency and dosage to taking nutrients and neuroprotective drugs.

You can also use alternative methods (ranging from safer drugs to

meditation) to reach the same places that dissociatives take you.

J.W. Olney isn't even as sure about disassociatives as you seem to be. Perhaps NAN should be named after you.

Must've had one erased. He now has 419. :stoned:

[drinksmokesleep]

Is it not somthing to do with summit i heard of called Robo-ing or summit......To do with drinking botttles of Robbitussin i think

[enthused]

Brain damage oh no! Doesn't bother me but I don't do it everyday or anything, maybe once every 3 or 4 weeks(usually only if im out of weed)

[andruejaysin]

Find the robotussin gelcaps with dextromethorphan (sp?) as the only active ingredient, then spend your money on weed, because DXM sucks. But it will fuck you up beyond belief.

OR you can have both...some people have bad experiences with that, but i had a pretty fun day:stoned:

Ketamine is fine, if you treat it like anyone of you would treat a sheet of Acid. PCP too... and oh yeah... EVEN DXM (ewww). All that is bullshit Kron.
