DXM, and pot addiction.

Whats up everybody.
Now before i tell my story let me just assure you that i know a lot of you guys arent too fond of DXM and find it pretty useless or dont see it as a good time. im not here to argue that, well maybe i am, but im sure not trying to tell anyone they should go out and do it; you may not enjot it.
But as for me, i happen to find it very useful as it helps me get over withdrawals from my pot addiction. It really does help me become my old, sober self again almost instantly after the robo trip. yes, i use robitussin max strength syrup. its the closest thing i can get to pure dxm.
Ive been a pot addict for about 4 years now, it really is a big problem i cant really control once i get started. the longest ive gone without weed was 6 months this past summer, all the other times were an average of a week. i really dont like being a stoner, not one bit. i get stupid, waste money on stupid shit, EAT and EAT and EAT which of course makes me fat, im not a fun person to be around, i get selfish, assholeish, and all i want to do all day is get high. seriously before i even do ANYTHING from taking a shower, to driving my car, going to work, falling asleep, i feel it necessary to get high. i even HAVE to smoke before i can eat a meal.
the times that ive gotten out of that stoner state of mind i feel SO much better, i have a good view on life and take action in doing good things that get my life going places.
BUT then comes that one day when i feel i can get high and i convince myself that i can handle it and not get out of control. i think "well ill just get high this one time and not do it again for a long time." as you can probably guess that has NEVER, EVER worked. oh no, sure enough that same day i buy myself an 8th and burn it all up by the next day. then i just want more and more, still thinking im in control, but it grabs a hold of me, and the worst part is i dont even really notice it. ill keep going and going digging deeper until something bad happens and i realize i need to stop. and when i do stop i get really depressed and irritable with everything. ill stay in my room all day not doing shit. its fucking pathetic.
but enough of that, lets get back to the DXM.
just last week i was going through my withdrawals from pot because i stopped smoking on christmas eve. new years eve i downed a 4oz bottle of robo hoping that it would help me out, and it did.
i chugged it pretty fast. all the other times i take about 15 minutes to get it all down. just thinking about the smell/taste makes me sick, but i can handle it. the experience turned out to be a great one, i really enjoyed it, but it went by very quick since i had drank it so fast. it was pretty intense at the peak of it. the week before hand i had been having some really amazing dreams, but i barely remembered what they were when i would wake up, i just knew they were some rally great dreams.
well, at the the peak of my trip all those dreams i had suddenly came back to me one by one very clearly. i was in the dreamscape of each of them reliving them. it was such a great experience! if you can imagine what that would be like.
now im back to my old, happy slef. im doing good and i hope i continue to do good and not become tangled up in the mess pot brings to me. i know i have a problem with it and i might go out and seek help. i want to live my life the way i feel it is meant to be lived. and i feel for all the people here on the boards and everywhere else that might have a similar problem and are having a difficult time.
its a new year so what better time to make a change for the better than right now!

trying to curb your pot addiction with something like dxm probably isn't the brightest idea dude, even though i sort of understand where you're coming from. dxm can be pretty awesome, and i really have nothing against it - i just wish i didn't have to go through all sorts of unhealthy problems and fuck my liver over to get that dreamy feeling i'm so fond of. ah well, just try to cut back on pot, don't drop it cold turkey or you'll just come back for more.

DXM can be cool stuff providing your in the right enviroment, just like any other psychedelics. As far as helping out your addiction, I have to agree with you. When I was heavily addicted to opiates, psychedelics were the key to me getting in the right mindset to kick it. DXM included.

dxm is actually a dissociative - the opposite of a psychedelic

So is Salvia, but most people compare it to DMT. Regardless the classification it works on me (and everyone I've ever spoken to thats done it) like a psychedelic.
Marijuana is classified with Heroin & Cocaine, but I fail to see any connection between them.

i use to have a bad problem with DXM. i was taking it about 3-4 times a week for almost 4 years. i even took a bunch before i had a dentist appointment just because they were pulling a tooth and that scared the shit out of me. DXM is a horrible drug to abuse. DXM is the only thing i ever regret using. just be careful and please don't go overboard.

i can relate. I wasn't "addicted" to weed but always had this idea that god damn this is obviously no good for my lungs (i dont smoke cigs) and i never did. my last mushroom trip blew my mind and its been a month since my last hit of weed, and this is from smoking 3 times a day to stopping cold turkey after a mushroom trip. i beleive ya man.

i dont understand how someone can become addicted to marijuana. isn't it listed as a psychedelic?
why would you use dxm to try and solve your marijuana addiction?
sorry to judge. i use to use dxm, but i only did it a handful of times. i like it at first and then it just didn't do anything. after using shrooms, i realized the psychedelics were my thing, not dissociative.
good luck in quiting both though. but honestly, if your addicted to marijuana, something i know many people quit easily, i would suggest counseling or something.
again, sorry if i came off as an ass.

You've got to be kidding me....
I've known quite a few pot addicts in my day.

I haven't smoked in like 4 days and i'm pretty damn sure I can feel some mild withdrawal symptoms...I don't know about you guys but i'm lethargic as a mother fucker for the first week of not smoking after going a couple months of blazing everyday. not lazy but actually physically drained to a degree. kind of feels like the first day of the flu but persistant for 1-2 weeks.

Sounds like someone's been drinking too much cough syrup.

"Most people do not experience signs of physical addiction, but with regular daily use use, mild to medium withdrawal symptoms usually occur for less than a week, but can extend for as long as 6 weeks." quoted from erowid.

yeah...I know that's how it sounds, but you gotta remember that there's a whole 'world beneath the world' when it comes to our existence (what with psychics and all of that malarkey) and I guarantee you that there's a lot of shit going on here that science hasn't even begun to wrap it's fingers around
DXM is just one of those things
