Didn't he say "resolution"? Resolution is Medicalese for "recovery. But no. She's alive, and that's the best you can expect from a patient who doesn't tell the truth about her condition.
I used to be heavily into the "research chemical" scene in my early 20's and now I have epilepsy, but I also have had a lot of head trauma and meningitis as a young adult, and the neurologist's i've dealt with are not harm reduction people so I've never talked about my drug history outside of what i've taken before going to the ER. Literally got stabbed and went through a vet to get it stitched up because I couldn't deal with cops and it was very clearly a stab wound. The unsafe things people do to treat themselves knows no bounds, I've been there in some ways, it's not a good mindset.
@@relevo86 I don't think it helped but everyone else who did stuff with me and some who went hard are perfectly fine medically, psychologically one or two are depressed and anxious but that's it on negatives. We did older RCs though, mostly just psychedelics from the Shulgin books, everyone also avoided consistent use to avoid neurotoxicity. My epilepsy is more a result of the meningitis I got as a teenager and all the fights and all the head trauma that comes with that. If you're curious/ have questions about RCs and the feel free to hit me up on discord, my username is in my bio and I'd love to hear what folks are into these days since I quit messing with all that stuff. Just epilepsy meds and live resin these days lmao
What RCs were you into? I was big into the RC scene too and loved it. Getting older now, though, so I haven't ordered RCs in years, and the sites seem to shut down so fast now that you can't even buy them if you want. 3-MeO-PCP and U-47700 were probably my top two RCs of preference.
@@TWEEMASTER2000 Ooooh... did you try 2C-C / 2C-E? I have the molecular structure of 2C-C tattooed on my upper left pec. It was the first drug to make me hallucinate. (Love the Shulgin books.) Still have some old 2C-E kicking around... not sure if it's good anymore. I was always hesitant to do it because it is a weekend commitment due to how long it lasts and the recovery.

"sense of [impending] doom" is my favorite symptom because it almost sounds like a joke but it can also be one of the most serious of them all. sometimes the body knows when bad things are about to happen, even if it doesn't know what the bad thing is.
When Im in the emergency room Im just going to treat it like an open mic. "Hey whats wrong with this joint it smells like someone died in here" "I met the pharmacists brother the other day and he offered me some dope, After looking at the price I marched into the pharmacists office demanding why he charges so much for opium?" "Im gonna need some medical marujana to even look at this food" "Im gonna be here all day, No joke I need an overnight stay"
Actually as long as you only do it like once a month, getting high on DXM is fine and a good high, as long as you do your research and are taking it alone, don't wanna mix with anti depressants, it goes great with nitrous oxide which you can get from cream chargers
Bollocks Dextromethorphan is one of the funnest and safest drugs to ever take, on par with ecstasy, not as dangerous as meth or heroin but more dangerous than pot. It’s not that bad, this girl just went over board and couldn’t handle it

Serotonin Syndrome is horrible. I mixed DXM with 5HTP and had a 3 day stay in ICU. I had a friend call me an Uber to the ER at 3am, and the last thing I remember before blacking out was me banging on the door of the room they put me in shouting I needed help immediately because I was dying. I knew it was serotonin syndrome but for some foolish reason it didn't cross my mind about that risk before I took the pills. I have No memory of anything else other than waking up at some point surrounded by my parents. I left the hospital with a bag of my pants which I had pissed in, and psychomotor retardation for 3 weeks. I couldn't form sentences but I could think them so my speech was so delayed and broken I would get panic attacks because that's a very overwhelming thing. Luckily I've made a "full" recovery from that instance, though I can say I am not the same person mentally anymore. Kids, if you're gonna do drugs, always look up EVERY possible interaction with ANYTHING. But don't do drugs kids they haven't done a thing for me other than make me a shell of my former self.
I almost died from Trader Joe’s 5HTP - thought the caffeine wasn’t enough, so I took the labeled dose. Felt like an engine at redline while sitting and doing nothing. Coke >>> 5HTP…..
I used to do DXM but only the pills with only that in it. I ended up taking the liquid form with alchol once and had a psychotic episode because I had gotten off my Anti-depressant barely 2 weeks before. It was the scariest shit I have ever been through. Decided to quit after that.
i’m here watching this because i overdosed sunday morning, it was an absolutely god awful experience and i thank everything that i walked away with it as only an awful experience and nothing worse. 36 dayquil tabs and my liver is probably destroyed from all the acetaminophen. i only did it because i my cart died (thc pen) and my reliance on that to get me through. the only thing i liked about those cursed pills was the fact that they did infact work like antidepressants once all the crawling to the bathroom with my vision spinning and flashing was finished, only that made the experience worse coming down. after all of that now all the depression was back so that sucked but i’ve made the executive decision to stop abusing substances to mask my feelings and try to get actual help
@@jacobshort2468 BTDT. I was completely convinced that hospital staff were in league to kill me. It was like living a nightmare. For what seemed like forever I was in and out reality. I would "sleep" and then "wake", only the difference (and sameness) between the the two was morphine. And thank goodness for morphine. I barely survived. Docs and family helped me, and 10 yrs. later, I'm better.
I ended up with serotonin syndrome from a single normal dose of this stuff. Thankfully it was mild enough to where I didn’t have any seizures or a fever (just the tachycardia, muscle spasms and minor auditory hallucinations), but apparently my parents never even let me have it for colds when I was young because my whole family has weird reactions to it. Of course another medication I was on at the time significantly lowered the threshold for serotonin syndrome, which has happened to me before, so probably not likely to happen to most people.
@@leroysanchino no this is more likely due to a rare enzyme deficiency that leads to adverse reactions, this is well known in the recreational dxm community
@@leroysanchino my doctors put me on a stimulant and an ssri at the same time, I never got any warnings about using DXM or other serotonergic medications.
I experienced serotonin syndrome after a former psychiatrist increased my dose of Wellbutrin. For about three days I had hallucinations, seizures, and eventually lost the ability to walk for a period of time. One of the most terrifying experiences of my life and I thought I was going to die.
I didn't feel any pain working out or getting physically struck while tripping on DXM. Definitely numbs physical feeling. Your skin feels like literal rubber.
@@nothanks8839 yeah I honestly despise House's outrageous cynicism. He jumped the shark from the start with how quippy and sarcastic he is all the goddamn time. It's annoying and takes away from the actual interesting content of the show. To me it's nigh unwatchable.
Used to be a show my family loved watching when I was a kid called Mystery Diagnosis. It was actual patients of rare conditions and diseases being interviewed about their story with re-enactments. The solution was kept a secret until the very end with just the symptoms and subsequent discoveries of medical professionals being given until the last ~10 minutes. It was awesome and I’m glad to see a similar format living on here on RU-vid.
The saddest thing about all of this is that from the very beginning of her symptoms, it was obvious that she never had depression to begin with. She has *bipolar disorder.* The symptoms he described at the beginning were episodes of mania and depression, not major depressive spells. An SSRI won’t properly help bipolar disorder. She needs a mood stabilizer. Based on his description at the beginning, he probably meant to put that she had bipolar disorder and changed treatments at the end but forgot to add it. He was describing textbook bipolar symptoms, so I went ahead and added it here. For those curious why I know, I have Major Depressive Disorder, have family members with bipolar disorder, and have studied human psychiatric conditions at a pre-collegiate and collegiate level, with my original area of study being psychiatric diagnostics.
@@mickeymouse12678 Unless the CVS she went to saw very little traffic and she always saw the same people, it's unlikely they'd even recognize her. Also, something to consider is that it isn't a regular pharmacy employee's place to say when or how often someone may purchase something. Possibly the pharmacist could, but that's usually limited to prescription medication. Regardless, if they did do that, I'm sure she'd just go elsewhere. It's not like it's hard to find a CVS or Walgreens or wherever.
If she was using CVS rewards or the same debit/credit card each time at the same store, they could track the amount of cough syrup she's buying. It's regulated how much you can buy in my state. I bet she was going from store to store to buy it. Also, if there was a 2-week shortage, certainly someone noticed. It's not terribly uncommon for teenagers to abuse the stuff.
I used to do this stuff a ton 6 or 7 years ago. I did research and whatnot on what ingredients were used, but after awhile I grew a tolerance. Soon I ended up having 3 bottles in one sitting. My skin itched and my resting heart rate was 160. It was one of the scariest things of my life and I never did it again. I remember being in a group chat and telling everyone a bunch of delirious "tell my family I love them" type stuff... Not a good drug.
@@GM.Nobody I know it’s a joke, but real world blind people can, and do, use phones and RU-vid too. It’s called a screen reader. Assistive technology is great (though still has a long way to go).
There is a new antidepressant out that is a combo of Wellbutrin and DXM. I just started taking it about two weeks ago. So far so good. Apparently it’s supposed to work on a different part of the brain than traditional SSRIs alone. Hopefully it helps bc depression is a bitch.
I am prescribed the same dxm/Wellbutrin combo it is called Auvelity. I've been on it for a couple months with no improvement to my depression. I've been on upwards of a dozen different medications over the span of last several years and none of them do shit for me except give me side effects. I'm about ready to tell my doc to take me off of everything and giving up on my depression ever getting better.
I noticed that too, but she regained consciousness and it was mentioned that her care could continue in a healthy manner. Could just be a recent case and the rest of the story is not yet known.
He did say, "lucky for her." I suspect it's recent, but likely won't be a full recovery. Serotonin overdoses have a bad record of causing permanent depression.

Well he did say she cracked her teeth. So that can't exactly be fully reversed. Although fillings are pretty effective, still sucks and is permanent though.
Chubbyemu: She concluded that the only way forward was with herbal medicine... Me: Yeah ok that's fair, as long as she's not still taking the cough medicine. Chubbyemu: ...And she started taking some combined with her over the counter cough medicine. Me: * crushes water bottle *
aside from serotonin syndrome from ingesting large amounts of Dextromethorphan, it also acts like ketamine and blocks NMDA receptors, and can damage them which can cause NEURODEGENERATION, even a dose of 500 milligrams can be bad and cold seriously mess up your brain and continued use will cause permanent memory issues
Forget anti-drug campaigns, hearing this guy explain what you've done to your body in a calm, thorough, yet easily understandable way is low key terrifying.

But DXM is awesome, it's a dissociative in high dosages, as long as you do your research you'll be fine and don't mix it with anything else, unless it's nitrous
I was eating a box of triple cs every few days to a week when i was 30. One day i decided to just keep taking more instead of waiting. I ate four boxes and a bottle of delsym in a 2 day period. Passed out and fell, hit my head on a concrete wall. The bastards cut one of my best t shirts off in the ambulance... i spent over 6 hours in a hospital bed barely able to move. It was like being a sloth covered in those old joggers ankle weights. To pee i had to slowly push myself up, roll over, use the plastic jug, then slowly set myself back down. I nearly died.of course i went out and got more triple cs. Dont be like me. If youre gonna do it, stay safe and never od.
@RoseanneSeason6 always did. I started drinking as much as I could on weekends when I was 14. Most weekends I would take a lot of acid though. But I started huffing dust off around that time. I consumed dozens of cans of dust off before I turned 21. By the time I took that dxm my nerves and brain were already "damaged" 😄 what can ya do? Just keep moving forward.
So I paused your video to say I've "dosed" ( a term I used while using DXM) probably over a hundred times. From the the years of 2014 to the end of 2019 I would dose out on pure DXM geltabs you can find at the dollar tree. It wasn't everyday use, but I would binge at times. Then just stop. Anyway, the things I had experienced mentally were terrifying. I still dissociate, I get mentally taken away from reality and my memory is absolutely terrible, on top of this DXM started as a "legal psychedelic" for me. And quickly became a way to numb and hide away from the world. I'm almost 3 years clean from it.
I also used it a lot when I was younger though the main reason I stopped was my body was really starting to reject it I would get nauseous just from smelling the gel caps. I was also starting to enjoy the trip far less, the one thing I really miss from it is the afterglow in that state of mind I feel more at peace with life and the world than any other.
@@Charles-cb3lo damn... didn't it lose the magic? I've done it a couple times over the years and it seems to get less intense fairly quickly, even if you take months long breaks. How did you maintain the habit?
@@jimothyj2638 It did lose the magic, but it still made me feel disassociated so I kept doing it. I did it the other day just to clear my mind and think about my situation in life, but that's it. Won't be doing it for a while, I'd like to try ketamine treatment for depression. The same reason the girl in the youtuber did it too. I'd say it's life saving but it's so easy to become addicted to it.
I took it 4 times all of which were in february which were all 400-600 range. i stopped, but since then ive been curious to try it again on a 1g+ dose to experience effects like ego death and out of body experience
I've been abusing cough medicines which contain dextromethorophan for years. I started using it as a substitute for alcohol, my original drug of choice. It was extremely interesting to learn the science behind WHY the dextromethorophan makes one feel good. I am currently sober from alcohol, and using a 12-step program to also kick the cough medicine habit. Thank you, Doctor, for this informative and non-judgmental video.
@@x-j3245 I'd say that's the "addictive" line of reasoning. You'll look for anything that'll alter your perception. And if substance choice 'a' stops working (or has too many negative consequences), you just switch to substance choice 'b', then move on to 'c', and so on down the line. The secret to good recovery is to get your mind to a place where you feel okay WITHOUT needing or wanting to alter your perceptions. 👌
the candid bold way you speak to the camera feels a lot like when a doctor you trust is giving advice that you Should take. Spoken poignantly with clear intent to leave an impression because your time together is short and the message needs to be delivered from the sender to the recipient. After these videos i get the feeling like when i leave a dr's office with potent sage advice and now it's up to me to follow it.
Remember that sometimes unimportant details like these are changed to be palatable to a broad audience on RU-vid . She may have very well said something like "you're all TRICKING ME! GET THE FUCK AWAY!" Or something worse
7 years ago I took two bottles of dxm syrup while on an MAOI (and doubling my dose of it for a week) as an "attempt". I figured I'd have a wild night before getting seratonin syndrome and leaving this earth. I took it on friday, and was completely ruined until monday, when I had to drive (awful idea with how messed up I was) to my therapist appointment. I made it without crashing somehow, where she noticed the shape I was in and called an ambulance to get me to the hospital. I'm currently the happiest I've ever been and can't wait to see the future that I almost lost. If you're going through something, I assure you that you do have the strength to get through it. There's a happy life waiting for you if you can keep going. You've fought hard, just fight a bit longer.
I was on an MAOI (Parnate) from August 2023 until I was hospitalized for Serotonin Syndrome on January 21st 2024, where I was sedated for 6 days with propofol and very high doses of Versed, intubated, and kept in critical care for 5 additional days after I was taken off sedation. I was on 50mg of Parnate a day, and I made the mistake of taking serotonergic supplements along with it, the primary one being SAM-E. When I was sleeping, my mother noticed my legs and feet shaking with seizure activity (clonus), so she woke me up, and drove me to the emergency room, where my memory stopped right after being taken back for intake. This is when I had a mental status change, where I became very confused, physically agitated, sweating profusely, and developed a fever, with very high blood pressure and heart rate. So they started to sedate me and run a ton of blood tests. During my time in critical care, after I was taken off sedation, my doctor said my case of SS was the worst case of serotonin syndrome he had ever witnessed. Thankfully he recognized my symptoms as serotonin syndrome right away, and in addition to the sedation, put me on Cyproheptadine, an antihistamine that is antiserotonergic at high doses. I was on the maximum dose of cyproheptadine, 32 mg/day, for about 5 days straight. I think the fact that most sources say that SS should be resolved in 24 to 48 hours is also a testament to how severe my case was. They made it clear that I am very lucky to be alive. And for the first time in many years, I feel truly happy and thankful to be alive. This was not intentional and I was not suicidal at the time, but I was certainly still depressed. Had my mother not been there and taken me to the ER at the exact time that she did, things would have been much worse. I can not imagine going out that way, it's truly one of the most horrific ways to die. I am very happy that you are okay and are doing better as well. Thank you for sharing your story and giving me a chance to share mine. It's only been about two weeks since I was discharged from the hospital, and I am still recovering with brain fog and low energy (I assume mostly from the withdrawal of the abrupt cessation of Parnate). Thankfully there seems to be no permanent damage to my neurology, psyche, or organs. It's an experience I will never forget, and I feel has forever positively changed me. I remember shortly after being taken off sedation and fully realizing what had happened, I burst into tears, profusely thanked the nurse for saving my life, hugged her, and said that I loved her and everyone else who saved my life. Sometimes it takes something as severe as an extremely close brush with death to make you appreciate being alive.
I thought of attempting this way but because I had su1c1dal ideation in the past I couldn't get prescribed SSRI's. I still don't like life and I feel lonely, but I don't really feel like life is pure suffering and I don't feel like actively going o ut and ending myself.
So she really wasn't suffering just from depression, but from bipolar disorder. Inorder for her to feel better she liked to feel slightly manic and all that serotonin helped better than taking her 1 SSRI only no one educated her on serotonin syndrome.
@@psilosighin it always frustrates me to think how do many things feed into depression, which can cause worse symptoms that just feed right back into depression. Positive feedback seems to be a negative thing more often than not.
Same energy as "I won't get vaccinated cause I don't know what's in there, but give me the fattest line of untested Ketamine you possibly can pls pls pls"
decided to watch this as I just experienced cough syrup poisoning. it was not on purpose for the record. I want to understand what happened inside me when this was going on. long story short I took 8 times the prescribed amount. that is less than half a bottle. I was incapacitated for 9 hours. I couldn't move, kept blacking out, my vision was swimming, I couldn't register objects, like as if I were a dog seeing a computer- knowing its there but not really KNOWING what it is. I still have a headache. I did not go to the hospital as it was not a fatal amount (this is normally characterized by prolonged unconsciousness, blue lips or fingertips, excessive vomiting, so on and so forth.) , I just had to let it pass through my system. Obviously I lived. but I have a feeling that had I taken more, I could have easily died. please treat cough syrup with caution. it may be OTC but it is dangerous. it is not a toy, take it very seriously.
@@Chris_HT i did. i am alive and well. i had brain fog and popped ears for about 5 days after. but i could have easily died if i had a bit more, or didnt have a fast metabolism.
@@Brandi.Alexandria That's literally what self medicating is einstein. When you abuse a substance to either deal with a problem it's not meant to deal with or using way more of it than usual to deal with a problem.
I used to do DXM for fun when I was a young dumb soldier. Alcohol had lost its allure, being drunk just wasn’t fun anymore. I would take Coricidin Cough and Cold (Triple Cs for those familiar), at first it was half a box of pills at a time and eventually it progressed to two whole boxes at once. Thankfully I woke up feeling like absolute muck one day and put two and two together, and stopped destroying my body for a little dissociative fun. That was about 10 years ago now, and between the DXM abuse and the alcoholism that I carried with me for my whole time in service, I now have a fatty liver, and I’ve found that I’m SOL when it comes to using cough medicine as directed - it seems like it just doesn’t work for me anymore, still. Kids and aspiring adults, lend me your ears: DO NOT ROBOTRIP EVER. You’re better off learning how to identify your local fungi and taking your chances there (and on that note, stay away from the muscaria)
Muscaria is fine as long as you boil it to decarboxylate the ibotenic acid, but even then, most of that will be converted to muscimol in the stomach anyways
I can see why she liked it. DXM has a disassociative effect on someone. You feel completely disassociated with your problems and people so you feel more free.
You're more free until you take 900mgs lmfao. Shit had me seeing my ceiling turn from a sponge to a mattress and then into a black void. I miss those days lol
I can attest. I've had my experiences with dextromethorphan cough syrup in the past and this only happened that one time when I drank syrup that had guaifenesin in it. I was talking with this very cute girl in my car while drinking the thing but quickly had to excuse myself for a minute because of the nausea that had started creeping up on me. I bolted out of the car to find a place to puke but couldn't even do 15 steps before a jet of hot diarrhea started spraying out of my sphincter only to be strained by my underwear. I then started vomiting this pink foam while my backdoor kept on leaking a little more until I could regain control over it. The best part of the story is that I was then too high to walk at this point, so I had to sit in all my glory and shitted pants for a few hours before I could get to a restroom and clean myself. Much spaghetti was spilled that day even though my friends didn't seem to notice that I effectively shat myself in public. For my defense, that happened 12 years ago at a time when we didn't have Internet at the tip of our fingers at all times. I vaguely knew that you could get high from cough syrup and did it on a whim without proper research and it bit me back.
Holy shit I'm blasting out of both ends! My heart's a seizing! My lung's a weezing! The fucking walls are melting! I can hear satan's voice! He's telling me to... invest in apple... What does that mean? WHY DOES HE WANT ME TO BUY APPLES?!
25 years ago, my teenager and their friends used dextromethorphan to get high. They survived their stupidity and are now successful adults, but their teen years were quite a challenge.
What do you mean, "survived their stupidity?" There is nothing wrong with taking DXM, just don't use those ridiculous doses. It is a cure against closed mindedness for many.
@@derpfaddesweisen I mean exactly what I said. They were making themselves sick taking large amounts of cough syrup to get high. That is a stupid thing to do. Fortunately, they survived their stupidity.
Exactly what I said But she’s pretty dumb either way because my advice was for a one time thing instead she went all out and did it every day I wouldn’t even do it once but if you do don’t be like “GG” and also don’t get anything other than DXM

He made a number of amateur mistakes in this video that even I - as a mathematician and a layman pharmacologist / neuropharmacologist immediately identified as incorrect.
@@vorpal22 Can you please share what these mistakes were? I'm genuinely curious to know, and don't know enough about medicine to even start looking. I'm also interested in whether these errors were choices made in order to tell the story, or if they lessen the overall accuracy of the video. I'm always willing to listen to evidence that alters my reliance on a source of information. Thanks and happy new year!
I think it’s worth contextualizing the DXM not only as a serotonin reuptake inhibitor, but as a dissociative like ketamine, which is a drug that people use recreationally. Ketamine is known as a positive aid for depression, and DXM’s association with Ketamine means that people can associate it with depression treatment as well. The amount GG was taking sounds insane though.
FDA approved a new medication that contains dextromethorphan and bupriorion combined together for the treatment of major depressive. I forget the name of the new medication but psychiatrists are now prescribing it. The bupriorion causes the DXM to metabolize slowly causing the DXM to last alot longer allowing for a long duration of anti depressent effects. Have you heard about this!! Even Psychiatrists are latching on to dissociatives for the treatment of depression.
Yeah this was a case of depression impairing judgement. Especially in the case of trying to find relief from said depression, you'll do anything no matter how crazy or dangerous if it's bad enough. You just need that escape from that feeling and that state of being. It's like "anything is better than this, I'll take my chances" but also you can't clearly see what those chances are because of the way your views on the world around you get skewed.
Being a former EMT these videos are absolutely fascinating! I'm really glad a came across this channel and I wish I would have had you as an instructor back in the day. Thanks so much Dr. Bernard

Because of how that excessive amount of sugar can make a person feel. It can make some people suddenly became unconscious. Not a healthy thing to do for fun.
Too much sugar (even fructose, like in Maple Syrup) hitting the blood stream at once would trigger a pretty dangerous backlash of Insulin spreading through the body. Too much Insulin can cause, liver, kidney & brain damage, unconsciousness & death. So yes, it may even be possible to OD on Maple fucking Syrup. (Though I expect you'd puke up most of it before you get that far, it depends on how sensitive to Insulin your system is.)
@@Skeptical_Numbat Can you explain the mechanism of what makes a person get to feel"high", from eating maple sugar, in large amounts, for that purpose? What happens that can cause someone to have that feeling? Is it having that much insulin in the blood that causes one to feel kind of dizzy, like giddy?
Cough syrup isn't prescribed, and therefore doesn't require the approval of a pharmacist. All she would've needed to do is go to a local Walgreens or equivalent store, which most cities have plenty of. Also store clerks aren't paid enough to stop someone from buying abnormally large amounts of cough syrup.
@@ProminentCorpse some pharmacies ask for ID when you buy certain meds, including OTC. Not sure this is one of them though. I think they're more concerned with pseudoephedrine.
@@XSemperIdem5 Yeah, but this is just OTC Dextro Cough syrup. Nobody cares if you bought one or a dozen Afaik, some countries regulate single ingredient medicine ( those medicines that are only a single component e.g tablets of just 10mg of Dextro, etc) but not these Pre-mixed OTC medicines. My country, for example, regulate those single component medications except Paracetamol and Attapulgite tablets. But other Pre-mixed OTC medications are pretty much free grabs
