So you only take it when you absolutely have to instead of OD’ing because cough syrup tastes good.

    Would only work for children. Can’t even get the good cold medicine now because people were using Sudafed to make meth and Dimetap to go “robotripping” or make sizzuryp or however the hell it’s called.

      dimetap (from what I could find) used DXM, which is exactly what people use for robotripping, but “sizzurp” (lean) in modern times refers to codeine. Funnily enough, og lean was beer mixed with dxm.

      It’s an entirely different class from opiates though, and if you really need it, robocough apparently still make tablets to avoid the nastiness of syrups.

        Oh fuck beer with dxm would taste awful and feel so weird.

        I accidentally had a bit too much dxm attempting to be functional enough to work. Wild experience

            Everything is basically in slow motion, and movements feel like moving through water. Besides that, I’d describe it as a heightened state of stupid. Out of body experiences are rare, but pretty wild.

            But it’s exactly the same trip every time, so it gets old after 20 or so.

            I was only mildly feeling it, but yeah that sounds like what a lot too much would feel like. Definitely interesting feeling, I get why people might reach that point for the novelty. Kinda like a weed body high with a clearish mind from what I remember
