Ok so my friend told me about DXM one day, and I was very skeptical about it, but looking for a high I decided to give it a shot. I found it to be an extremely good experience. It was nothing like a typical psychedelic. There were no patterns or weird sounds, it was just a really odd mindset. It felt like I understood things. The day after I had found that I did understand the music I played better, and this forever stayed with me.

A few weeks later I decided to give it another go but this time with something to give me some visuals. First I downed a bottle of robitussin honey cough along with my friend P. About 45 minutes later we each at 10 benedryl pills. Big mistake for my friend. The trip had its ups and downs. One problem was that reality was difficult to discern. The visuals were things that looked real. I saw birds flying in my room, and heard my mom calling me even though she was asleep. I saw a person looking at me through my window. I kept seeing ghosts. All the while, intense patterns were appearing on my wall. My friend was constantly asking if I was talking to him through the night, because he kept hearing voices. In fact that's all that happened for him. He would consistently hear voices.

Something that has kept occurring even months after this experience is that I always see patterns in the dark before I sleep. I also periodically still hear voices that aren't really there. These drugs can be fun, but can also be VERY dangerous. Take caution!
