5. My personal expierence
1. So what does it feel like?
I feel like I could throw a million different adjectives and experiences and wordy descriptions of feeling like the incarnation of Buddha while also flying through the physical world itching and scratching your head and sweating through the feeling of pure joy and self-diety experience...
But the most baseline description I can give is a middle ground between weed and psychedelics
Prepare for a lot of euphoria and extreme heightening of senses and stimulation while also losing track of any concept of time. Truly you can run around and jump to the tunes of your favorite music for what feels like an hour and you can check the clock and see only 10 minutes have passed and it truly is because you feel like you have been transported into a different world where time doesn't move. Plenty of closed eye visuals the higher plateau you go with a heightened sense of feeling out of body. Like most drugs there's a come up, peak, and then come-down, but I would say for 60% of the DXM experience you are feeling some of the most intense positive feelings and stimulation you have ever felt in your life.
2. Ok, holy shit wow that sounds intense, so like how do you do it and can you like... die?
Well I guess that's a couple questions to answer at once... let's start with how to do it, then we can move onto how to do it SAFELY
2.1 How to get DXM/What is the difference between all this shit at CVS?
Before this we need to highlight the difference between the 3 types of DXM. All of them are safe but they will make you trip somewhat differently.
DXM HBR: The most common form of DXM, often found in CVS syrups and most of the better syrups that are accessible to most people. This is the DXM you probably hear about most on this sub outside of Delsym and R30's.
DXM Polistirex (Poli): I remember a while back someone referring to this as "Half the strength, Twice the length." and that is exactly what it is. If you want to be high for like 12-18 to even 24 hours... go this route. I've only ever found this type of DXM in Delsym. If you are looking for a high dose of DXM... dont go this route because it takes twice that of HBR and you can easily overdo it. [Personal Comment: If it's your first time... maybe don't go this route. Like I mentioned before its no more intense than anything else, but I think by the end of a typical HBR/Freebase trip, which is already quite long, you are pretty much ready to be normal again]
DXM Freebase: This is just the pure powdered form of DXM. I'm sure there's a lot of sketchy ways to source this but the only approved source I know of that I've used/use personally is Robotablets from the company robocough.
2.2 Now onto the different brands of DXM and their ratings
(RULE OF THUMB IF YOUR BRAND IS NOT ON THE FOLLOWING LIST)IF THE BOTTLE SAYS
If you are on anti-psychotics/mood stabilizers (Zyprexa, Vraylar, Risperidone, etc.)
Now there is not a lot of online documentation about the effects between DXM and medications like these since mood stabilizers are an extremely complex medicine that I'm sure the average DXM user does not really understand... That being said, in my personal opinion just don't take the risk. Full disclosure I used to have to take Vraylar and I only ever tripped before I was prescribed and after I had stopped taking my medicine for 3-ish months... I think I'm fine but that only says so much in the grand scheme of things so just be careful and really put some research and time into your decisions. Don't rationalize bad behavior and like always your health is much more important than whatever this drug will give you.
RATINGS:
GREEN LIGHT: Safe if you follow the general safety procedures of taking a drug like this
YELLOW LIGHT: There are others that do this, This may not be as enjoyable, as clean, or you may have to do it at your own risk considering some of the factors mentioned. Not unusable but not the best experience.
RED LIGHT: Don't. This is not for tripping it is for curing colds you will either get sick or hurt yourself.


RoboCough Syrup [HBR]
Source: These can only be found online and shipped to you for about 90% of the US population. I don't know the rules on linking the website but literally typing its name in google should give you a result lol. Worst case I believe they ship with amazon as well.
Price: $16.99 for 5 450ml bottles (450mg x 5)
Personal Notes: This was the first clean DXM experience I ever had with a bunch of friends that wasn't encumbered by the feeling generic CVS syrup gives you. This is probably the best product on the market only contested by the product right below it. This is where its at whether you are a beginner or a CVS user that wants to experience some of the best feelings DXM has to offer.


RoboTablets [Freebase] (often referred to as r30's or robotabs)
Source: These can only be found online and shipped to you for about 90% of the US population. I don't know the rules on linking the website but literally typing its name in google should give you a result lol. Worst case I believe they ship with amazon as well. Same company as the one mentioned above.
Price: $19.99 for 1 bottle of 100 tablets (30mg each) (best value)
Personal Notes: In my opinion these are the cleanest way of taking DXM. Don't want large amounts syrup hurting your stomach? Don't want a sludgy unclear trip that the generic CVS products can give you? This is your guy. When these released I tried them and never went back, a couple of these plus a light 5-10mg edible (or heavy 15-20mg if thats ur thing lol) and I swear to god you get a twin peak like no other. I still recommend trying the robocough syrup for the experience/variation. But if ur asking about the best way to trip... its this.


Delsym [Poli]
Source: Your local CVS, Walmart, or really anywhere that carries cold medicine.
10-15 bucks/bottle
Personal Notes: I don't do poli or delsym often so I cant speak for the benefits or quality of trip. But I can tell you this is a tried and true method of getting a solid one in. Always remember with poli: Half the strength, Twice the length.


CVS Health Cough DM Polistirex Extended Release [Poli]
Source: Your local CVS, Walmart, or really anywhere that carries cold medicine.
Price: 10-15 bucks/bottle
Personal Notes: This is the exact same as below but just Poli instead of HBR. Consider this the generic version of Delsym. I honestly dont even recommend reaching for this stuff because often times delsym is on the exact same shelf... but we all been at the "9 bucks in the checking and we gotta get high" so I cant knock it. Just uhhh dont get too nauseous or anything.


CVS Health Tussin Adult Cough, Dextromethorphan HBr USP 30 mg [HBR]
Source: Your local CVS, Walmart, or really anywhere that carries cold medicine
10-15 bucks/bottle
Personal Notes: These come in gelcaps as well I believe but it's much of the same as what I'm about to mention. If it's there and for some reason you cannot get products from robocough, i've been there sometimes u just gotta get that feeling tonight.... this will work for that. You have to drink much more syrup/take much more pills and that can often irritate your stomach... But if you want the cleanest and most enjoyable experience I just recommend waiting for an order from robocough. In the meantime plan what you will do on your trip maybe


Coricidin HBP (ANY FORM) (Triple C's)
Source: Local medicine store
Personal Notes: These are just awful for your heart and will give you a really shitty high stay away from this shit it is seriously dangerous, I know some people on this sub use Triple C's and oh god just please for your own safety stop. These are made for people with high blood pressure so they often contain ingredients other than DXM.


ANY SYRUP OR GELCAPS WITH AN ACTIVE INGREDIENT OTHER THAN DXM
Source: Too many places unfortunately
Lastly if you are on pain medication/opioids
I will cover this again in the recreational drugs section... but regardless don't take these 2 drugs together. If you know the opioids are out of your system you should be fine (be safe and be extra sure, always take a day or 2 buffer to make sure) but just never combine them. Never ever. There are more specific symptoms and dangers on the TripSit wiki but basically you can seriously end up in an ER.
3.2 Recreational Drug Interactions/Safety
Now in this section you are gonna learn that not all drugs are bad with DXM... some potentiate or even synergize to make it better.... not all... but some
***Marijuana/Weed:***I think it takes one search on this sub with the word "weed" to find out how amazing weed is with this drug. It's become a staple in my routine taking it as it gets rid of the nausea on the come up and just makes everything so much more mellow and vibrant... as a friend once said to me while wobbling on his feet during 3rd plat "Dude weed and DXM is basically like.... Indica Molly" and I really couldn't agree more.
***Alcohol:***Never ever in any circumstance drink alcohol while doing DXM. This is an easy way of fucking up your breathing and giving yourself Serotonin Syndrome. A double whammy where if one doesn't take you the other will. STAY AWAY. COMPLETELY.
**4. Alright man I get it stfu about safety and tell me how much to take (Plateaus, Dosage and Calculators)**Alright, Alright sorry I'm just tryna do my due diligence but I get it. Fuck I'm tryna trip as well I'm with ya lmfao.
So at this point you have some DXM in your hands and you are ready to start flyin high but you're wondering how much you need to take which can be solved by 2 simple steps
Find what plateau you wanna reach
Take an amount spit out of a calculator based on your weight
And this probably takes like 5 minutes total so lets follow these steps
4.1 What plateau should I get to?
Well this is entirely your choice. There's plenty of descriptions online of the different plateaus but I think none rival the descriptions on TripSit. I'm going to leave a link to the descriptions they have (just scroll down a little until you hit the section called plateaus)
wiki.tripsit.me
4.2 Ok so wheres this calculator then?
If you're taking HBR:
Just use this calculator here
If link is not working or you prefer a different calculator use this: https://dexcalc.com/
It's pretty intuitive just select what you're taking and put in your weight.
If you're taking Poli:
Remember what I said earlier? Half the strength twice the length.
So if you plug in your weight and find your HBR dose for 2nd plat is 400mg... you would take 800mg to feel 400mg of HBR
that being said it is easy to overdo it and 2nd/3rd timers can still get hit pretty hard with doses so DO NOT DOSE 2 MUCH. SERIOUSLY.
If you're taking Freebase (Robotabs):
Find what you would take HBR with the above calculator (in Pure MG) and then use this chart to convert https://docs.google.com/document/d/...z73Uhh1KZAB_Gsam7fwErZFcw2Zjk8LVKKJLJaaQ5/pub
(for example: I weigh 150lbs and want to take 311mg HBR... I would take 240mg freebase AKA 8 tablets)
5. My personal Expierence : overall its been very positive and also it feels like your drunk and high at the same time
Give your nigga greypiller some reps cause this took a long time
