tonight i think i'm going for my first third plateau experience. after doing DXM a little too much it wasn't interesting any more. but i haven't done it for about a month, so i'm going again tonight. i'm alone and i don't have any weed so a second plateau wouldn't be all that great, so i figure tonight's a good night to shoot for the third plateau which i've been interested in for a while now. i'd consider myself very well experienced in doses of 200mg-400mg (doesn't sound like a lot, but i only wigh 120 pounds). my calculated third plateau dose begins at 415mg, so i'll probably take about 500mg-550mg tonight. for those who have gone there; how is music at this level? i LOVE lying down with headphones when i'm on DXM, music gets so dimensional. but i feel like, because the third plateau is so heavily dissociative, music won't quite have that quality. should i count on any stimulation at all? or will i literally just "fall" into a trance where i won't be able to move?
music will get increasingly amazing the more you take, in my opinion... I have NEVER been dissapointed by music on DXM, even up into 4th plateau. Chances are, if you are by youself, you will close your eyes and almost forget you're even in a room. You'll be in a lot of places in your mind. But it's not too hard to regain consciousness of the room if you need to, or if somebody else is there.
good to know... even at 354mg sometimes i fall back and lose myself into music. and when i open my eyes it feels like i'm coming up from FAR away. i'm really looking forward to it.
i slipped into my trip very good last night when i tripped, i took 600mg at once and 1st plaetua was about 15 mintues after ingestion i had a nice play list set up before i started to trip, then i started to feel as if i were drunk and light headed, then i had trouble seeing, complete loss at what i was doing, could barley cordinate my fingers to type, that was the best feeling of the whole trip, also the come down was not bad at all and some what pleasent, if your a frequent user i sure im not tellin anything you dont know, just wanted to share my expereince
yeah i've never gone above 420 and i only did that once, by taking ~300mg and then taking shots throughout the trip. that one was no good. i just took 360mg and i'm probably going to see where i'm headed.
i tried about 500~575 mg this weekend because both of my dealers were out of town. weird i know right.. music will deff. be fun but i would sometimes not even be listening to it anymore when i was tripping. my guess is your already tripping..?
For me the music was never that great on DXM. It's not like weed where the music feels x1000 better, I find it's better to use it as a way to increase the 3d visuals. When you listen to the right music (which is anything spiritual, for YOU) the visuals respond dramatically to the music, so it's like you're exploring a 3d world guided by the music, and at higher doses you can control it yourself.
i was listing to tech, trance, and hip hop when i was trippin the other night, it wasnt likethe music was so awesome but it held good backround noise to let me know i was still in excistince lol
it ended up being about 490 or 500mg. no OEV's, but when i closed my eyes things got REALLY interesting. i didn't have any weed which was unfortunate, but at that dose i didn't exactly need it. smoking while on dxm is incredible at the second plateau, because it adds a whole new element. i can't say i had a fully immersive third plateau experience but this was wayyy different than dxm trips i've had before. i had vivid visions and dream-like stories and images when i closed my eyes but i could open them whenever i wanted. and inside these images, colors and images looked more clear and "sharp" than reality. i'm definitely going to explore further, that was the most beautiful trip i've had on dxm by far. and yeah music was a great way to guide the visions. i listened to a few dead can dance songs, which i've always loved on dxm, and then the album "falts of the inexpressible" by shpongle. great music for this experience. the only problem is movement... i had to use the bathroom and it took me a really long time to stand up, figure out how to move myself and do everything right. i was hanging on to the walls the entire way to the bathroom haha. oh and i hardly have any hangover... i still feel generally WEIRD but i definitey have some nice afterglow effects, nothing like the next day depression i've heard about. i like it.
I'm surprised you're so careful about it. My first time ever with dxm was 650mg and it made me fall in love with that state of mind. In my opinion, 1st and 3rd plateaus are a waste of time, and only 2 and 4 are worth it. 1 is threshhold effects, so immediately ruled out for fun. 2 is a solid social dose, I can go to school and learn on 2, go to work and talk to my boss on 2, yet i'm having an absolute blast. 3 is 2 with threshhold psychedelic effects, so why tease yourself, why not just go for . . . 4, which is 2 + major psychedelic effects and extreme dissociation, an utterly novel state of mind. Although I will say that dissociation can be -terrifying-, it's very, very reasonable to think you're dying or dead in that state. of course with experience you learn to laugh at those thoughts, and after a few sessions of laughing at those thoughts they never bother you again. but that's the secret to making drugs less scary and more fun . . . not avoiding the higher doses, which is the equivalent of avoiding dealing with an issue, but diving right in and tackling that annoying thought down with the full force of your being.
you're probably right, diving right in is really the only way to do it when it comes to psychedelics. it was so amazing though, those visions. i've had interesting things happen to music on the second plateau, but last night i was actually having extremely vivid images going through my head, sometimes creating a storyline. it was so much like dreaming but seemed more real. i want to try again at around 600mg but i also don't want to do this very often, i feel like my brain went through a lot.
the first time i ever tripped on anything..way before i knew people who could get me shrooms or acid (which i haven't got to try..yet) i didn't know anything about dxm my friend had just done it a bunch and after i calculated it i was on borderline 4th plateu. i didn't know typical things about tripping like how time basically stops and it was really scary. i thought i was literally in hell for a while because i could swear time was moving backwards each time i would look at the clock. although i could hardly read a digital clock and i was looping bad. it definitely fucked me up in both good and bad ways
On any 200mg+ dose of dex music is fucking great . Simple as that, as dose increases so does your appreciation for music.
thats crazy man ive always hated on dxm but i really want to try a strong dose never used psychadelics though...
go for it man... it's not a terrible thing to start out on. even from one experience, i can tell that high doses have amazing potential. i definitely reccomend at least trying it.
if u have been around this forum long u know how much i would hate on dxm users and tell them to get real drugs. now that i have this cough for the past week ive had about 3 bottles of robotussin gels im so tempted to try it, i really want to but after reading shit like being out of ur body that shit just perplexes me and scares me really i mean i wanna trip but ive seen two frinds go way down hill because of dxm
