Throughout high school, I was a pretty heavy DXM user. I ordered a bottle of the powder off the internet during the beginning of my senior year, and sold/used it for several months before the drug began to turn on me and I experienced prolonged dysphoria rather than the high I was used to.

During my freshman year of college, I stuck mainly to alcohol and marijuana, the two old stand-bys. Every now and then I was able to score some Vicodin or Percocet, and so much the better my recreation.

A few weeks ago I got bored with this, and decided I needed to get out of my head again. It had been a couple months since my last mushroom adventure, and these were now in short supply. I decided to try my hand at DXM again, and it was not what I expected at all.

I took a fairly low-level dosage of the drug, much less than I was accustomed to in high school, but it really knocked me off my ass. I spent most of the day in bed writhing around to the sounds of Pink Floyd, completely out of it and loving it. A few hours after I took the pills, I started to get that edgy feeling that accompanies the DXM come-down, and I decided to snort 25 mg of Oxycontin I'd bought the day before. Once again, the effect was not what I expected at all.

I guess I was thinking of being really chilled out for the next few hours, that pleasant sleepy-feel that I usually get with painkillers. Not at all: it felt like I was on amphetamines. I was really euphoric and talkative with my boyfriend and his friends, and even going outside to smoke a joint didn't bring me down at all.

It was an incredible experience, a real waste of a day but a fantastic one. I fell asleep sometime after midnight and woke up tired but not really out of sorts. I think it's important to consider that I only took moderate amounts of these three drugs, and that is the key to functional and enjoyable highs.
