Welcome to

Take a romp through my field of mushrooms and listen to what they have to tell you


Coricidin


For those not interested in Coricidin or DXM info, scroll down.

Ok, so you are taking Coricidin. That's what everyone is writing in my guestbook. So, why not cater to the masses? If that's what you're taking I might as well provide information on that. First of all, Coricidin has an antihistimine in it that is dangerous in high doses, IE more than 10 pills, and from what i read, you're always taking more than ten pills. So Coricidin is a bad choice, even though by now it's probably the "cool" one to take. You have two other choices: Drixol is a pill that has a version which has only DXM, the only thing you want in your system. DXM, or dextromethorphan, is the active ingredient which makes you trip when you take Coricidin. Robotussin and other generics also have this ingredient alone. Taking a whole bottle of cough syrup isn't that fun, but you could get used to it. Supposedly "Drixol Cough Liquid Caps" are the right ones, and sometimes they can be difficult to locate. But believe me, it's worth it.

DXM is a dissociative, of the likes of PCP and ketamine. At low doses it is not like these things at all, but at high doses, it has some similarities, although it is still quite different. At high doses it can dissociate you from your body, make you feel like you're not breathing, or your heart's not beating, among other things, because you are dissociated from these feelings. I speculate that this is why it works as a cough suppresant at low doses. It dissociates you from the itch in your throat and you no longer feel the need to cough. The itch doesn't bother you. Anyway, your heart or breathing doesn't actually stop, but it feels like it. You may find this very unpleasant, or if you're aware of it ahead of time, it may not both you at all.

Best DXM FAQ, in my opinion

GUIDE TO DXM IN NONPRESCRIPTION DRUGS

General DMX FAQ

a quote from the above link: "Again, remember that the antihistamine in these tablets will change the character of the DXM trip (not necessarily in a good way), potentially increasing the degree confusion. Do not use this product except at first and second plateau dosage! An overdose of antihistamine, while not typically fatal, can be extremely unpleasant and has been reported to be a frequent cause of "bad trips" from Coricidin. Most DXM users have recommended not taking more than eight Coricidin tablets; some say not to use this product at all."

Now I know I've got your attention. For awhile I didn't know if anyone was listening out there, but low and behold, here you are, reading these words, ready for an influx of information. Something is happening out there. People are beginning to use psychedelics as a real tool in their lives. They see that the insights gained while tripping can be used in real life for effective and better living. It's true! We are taking our lives into our own hands.

If you are one of those people who feels this way, but thinks you're the only one, YOU'RE NOT. There are other people other there. Get online and get connected. Go to my links and find the message boards, the mailing lists, the hoards of people out there like us who just happened to be scattered too far throughout the globe for you to notice. There IS life out there and it's right under your nose!

Psychedelics are tools like everything else on this planet. If we can learn to live in harmony with them, we can reach great heights. We are humans, tool using creatures, like others on this planet, and we intend to further our minds in any way possible. Don't let them control your mind, if it's the only thing you do.

All of the information on this site is here to help you do that. So further your mind and think for yourself and get to reading!

Early Hinduism worshipped a God called King Soma, which was actually a hallucinogenic plant. They used this plant for sacrifices and as a sacrament to reach their own union with God. Many other cultures have done this too. Don't let them tell you it's bad! It's natural, and it's been around for way longer than we have!

Hinduism is great. God is everything and everyone. Love them as such and treat them that way. Tantra is also the way to go. Everything you do can be used as a catalyst to reach God. Good and bad are relative terms and the value of anything is determined by how much you can learn from it and how much closer it can get you to nature/god/universe/unity.
