Its seems like such an incredible oversight that it ends up OTC unlike codeine in many places when its far more traditionally neurochemically altering.

I’m glad its available and can be used once in a while as a poor-man’s ketamine to help recalibrate your affect and mental state and get the neuroplasticity shifting things around.

Who has experience(s) with DXM?

    I am a huge fan of DXM. I have been taking it off and on for the past decade (I’m in my 40s now). The trips are really peaceful for me and relaxing. The best part is the afterglow; the time when the trip is over, but you still feel different. The afterglow feels like I’ve been reborn; it is mentally cleansing for me. I always feel so bright and happy the day after I do DXM.

    Of the 3 main DXM formulations, I enjoy DXM HBr the most, followed by DXM Polistirex, then DXM freebase.

    My advice for anyone about to try DXM: start with small doses; give your body time to clear everything before you trip again (at least 2 weeks; a month is better); most importantly, be in a safe headspace.

    If you’re like me and you cannot stand the taste of Robitussin or Delsym, look into purchasing from RoboCough. They sell DXM (HBr and freebase) in pill form.
