Just some things to mention to you all about what DXM did to my thinking and standard of living for now. hopefully i will recover. i already feel like im on the right track. I was constantly drinking alcohol for 2 years, from ages 16-18, i needed a drink daily or i felt like i was "missing" something. Once i graduated high school i started to get on the right track, i was still drinking heavily but knew i needed to change. I started to drink DXM to fill my void. I would steal the DXM or steal a few dollars from my parents here and there to get it. I would take down roughly a bottle a day. I was abusing DXM for 4 months. This doesn't seem long, but now i have problems concentrating, speaking, have uncontrollable shakes so bad i have to talk myself down and breathe slowly and deeply just to let myself know it's alright, have problems pissing regularly and my social anxiety has increased. Also, when in school writing notes, i have a hard time taking notes because i will forget what im writing or finish words with other endings of words that im thinking. i now have stomach problems, such as not being able to handle cough medicine even at the prescribed dose, and my stomach is always upset now. i really feel stupid for it and hope more research is put into DXM abuse. I believe that DXM can be used responsibly and without adverse effects, but i won't touch it again. please be careful with what you put into your body and notice your addictions. I have been straying away from alcohol for a while now, and don't even touch cough medicine, barely even use it to cure a cough either.
You need to get yourself in and checked out ASAP. It sounds like your kidneys are trying to tell you something.
Alright, lets see if I can help you out. I was also a DXM abuser while I was in highschool, actually even more of an abuser then you. While I dident drink as much I used to take 16-20 CCC's almost every weekend friday and sometimes saturday for 3-4 months, then I got sick of it. I have had stomache problems my whole life but ever since I stopped taking them I have had loads of stomache problems including a fizzing or poppping sensation I feel in the back of my throat which leads to stomache pains. I feel sick to my stomache almost everyday. I dont get shakes as you say but aswell as you my social anxiety has skyrocketted. While I am not sure if it is the DXM, or the cocaine, X, Heroin, or anything else I was on for a while, or the experience of having to go to jail for quite a while, but I have surely changed, and not for the better. Obviously never take DXM again, its harmful to the body. I knew a shit load of people who DXM tripped in many different ways. Most people loved it because its such a strange feeling. I went to the doctor many times over my stomache, they tried to tell me I have acid reflux disease, athsma, and other bullshit problems. I was givin a ultra-sound and my organs seem fine and my test results from my Upper GI exam were fine. I have also since been perscribed xzanex to deal with the anxiety, I hope you feel better.
thanks for the support and your views. i just am hoping even if it's slow, i will start to get over all these adverse effects. over all i learned alot from the dxm experiences, or binges, haha, but i wish i didn't learn about it's nasty underbelly this bad. either way, this time of year feels good. have a nice safe holiday. :xmastree:
yeah. when i smoke i usually get the weird shakes. i think it's from increased paranoia now. and i know people that are high have low attention spans, but it's really hard for me to even listen to something i'm genuinely into, and think of what i want to add to the conversation at the same time.
wow this is striking me strangely... i had a HORRIBLE trip one night when i couldn't piss and i stopped using DXM for a while... i started to have intense feelings of my body not working properly, like weird bubbling in my intestines and shitting and pissing felt weird... but that slowly went away but if i smoke weed (which is why i asked you about that), i have tremors and spasms and i can feel my body dying again... all feelings i had from DXM that stuck around even while sober, but multiplied by smoking. my voice is a little more flat, and i feel like i can't think properly but when i sit down and relax i actually can... it's just more trouble communicating with other people. i think DXM does some very specific damage to certain parts of the brain; DXM abusers tend to have some awfully similar symptoms based on what i've been reading and my own experiences
haha. DMX... where is that raspy voiced fool these days. and cherokee, i feel ya man, i have a hard time with digesting food it seems sometimes, and i have to use the bathroom frequently. and my friend that used to do dxm with me quite a bit has problems with slurred speech he says, yet it isn't too bad for him. and i now have hppd. but i think that's because of some other things i ingested, and i truly did want to just trip forever, so i guess i got what i asked for. but i feel like the dxm contributed to it. and along with that, i have some problems with sweating frequently, and it's bad when i'm around others, but even when im just chilling at my house i sometimes just have some fountains under my pits.
lol fountains under your pits. i don't know how averse you are to meds, but SSRIs have helped the cognitive symptoms a lot. i had huge problems with memory, and forming coherent thoughts, and finding words, etc... i've been on lexapro for about 2 months now and it's way easier to think. is your HPPD associated with depersonalization/anxiety at all?
speaking of the trouble pissing, ive had that i dont know how many times when on higher plateaus. its like, im ready to piss and i can feel it coming but then i get distracted and i cant go no more. i can piss when trippin on dxm but it takes do fuckin long cause i keep having to think about stupid shit.
Same... When on a high plateau 3rd/4th Its extremely hard to piss. Like id be in the bathroom standing for 5mins hoping to do it, And when it works im like OHHHH YEAH
i was always known for taking long pisses like a camel, but now i sometimes fall asleep while waiting to finish now.
Hello all first post, i wouldn't say i had problems but then again i never aimed for 3rd or 4th p. When i first started i did it like 3 times a week but only tried like a little above 2nd p. I stopped when i had the craziest darkest dreadful vision of dying and crap i was horrified lmao . But then i started again like six months later digging deeper seeing that i wasn't suppose to do it so ofter. I guess im always looking for that first high i got it was amazing everything felt so amazing but back on topic basically have anyone had issues pertaining to teeth with dxm i brush my teeth regular but sometimes when i take it and wake up in the morning my teeth aches so bad?
