Thanks for the insights Robi. He actually did do a little research first, and heard (from who knows where) that children's Robitussin DM was supposed to be the "right" one to use, since they don't dope up the children's version with as many other drugs. Guess he was wrong though.
If the experience is as you describe, it's curious that this hasn't become more popular, or that DXM isn't regulated. |

DXM actually has been getting more regulated recently. I no longer use it, but once in a while I check out the 'flavors' available in stores to see what's around. I don't think Wal-Mart supplies the correct type anymore. Used to be able to get 8oz mega bottles (family size ) of the max strength, but that's rare these days. Though I'm worried that changes like that will make it more dangerous for those who try it in the future, because having less pure syrups around will cause more people to ingest the wrong chemicals. Research of people who have tried it shows that about 95% or more of all the problems that have occured from DXM is from taking the wrong syrups. DXM isn't very popular for several reasons. First of all most people don't find it appealing to consume 8oz of cough syrup. Second, lots of people probably won't believe that you can buy such a powerful psychedelic over the counter. Third, a majority of the drug taking population is more interested in 'getting fucked up' or party drugs rather that a serious trip into the inner core of your conscious. ( Some people have told me they thought DXM was stupid - because they took it and tried hanging out at the mall or playing video games - which completely misses the point of where DXM can take you. I would mentally prepare for each trip sometimes weeks in advance, so that I would get the most out of it. Most people would rather party and not worry about stuff like that.) Fourth, as with any drug, DXM effects different people in different ways. The actual psychedelic properties come from when your body converts DXM into DXO. Only about 30% of humans have the correct enzymes in their body that allow the DXM - > DXO conversion, so your neuroreceptors can get the full effect. For those that can't achieve the complete effect, they will dismiss DXM as bunk and not worry about it again. Anyway, I need to get back to my programming instead of rambling on about DXM. |
