Hi Fuxta,
Welcome to the Forum!
Re/your question about zoloft ( sertraline ), taking DXM with any of the SSRI or SNRI medications like zoloft can be quite dangerous, sadly. There is a phenomenon called " Serotonin Syndrome " which can occur when too much serotinin is released into the brain at one time, and mixing DXM and SSRIs or SNRIs can cause this to occur. Serotonin Syndrome is very serious, and has even led to death on occasion. At the very least, if serotonin syndrome is suspected, the user should be rushed to a hospital emergency room for immediate medical intervention. This is no small matter.
Ideally, your GF would need to stop her sertraline for quite a while before taking DXM, though I would not hazard a guess as to how long. The chances of serotonin syndrome developing seem to run parallel to the amount of DXM consumed, too. So a hefty trip of 600 mg. raises the chances of trouble much more than, say, 200 mg. would.
The following comments are going to be strictly somewhat informed guesses on my part, and should not be considered to be scientific answers. I am a therapist who used to work a lot with clients who had severe cases of DID--Dissociative Identity Disorder, formerly known as Multiple Personality Disorder--so I am quite familiar with the condition. I think that taking DXM could be quite dangerous to such a person, because the risk of her "flipping" into a painful and/or dangerous aspect of her personality and getting stuck there for a long time are quite high.
I think your GF is very lucky that she had a pleasant trip the first time 'round, but she may not be so lucky in the future. The only way that I could see the use of DXM working fairly well for her would be if she was working with a qualified therapist--preferably a psychiatrist/MD--while tripping, and it would likely be very hard to find a professional who would be willing to try this with her. Without medical/therapeutic supervision, I think she is taking her chances big-time.
I am sorry to feel compelled to say all this, because DXM can indeed be a delightful experience. But I think the deck is stacked against her, between the sertraline/DXM mixing problem, and the nature of serious identity disorders. She should be very careful about ANY chemical substance she tries that is not prescribed for her.
Stay safe!
I never understood I had DID until I used dxm quite a lot.
I get how under the influence personalities can be at peace as if the system of being fractured works, however prolonged use for me made DID worse. I switched for longer and have large memory gaps.
At first I could be ok for a while but would want to reach for that harmony that dxm brang and it was a factor that started my addiction .
Just because someone has DID doesn't mean you can't take dxm, the understanding of self and lucidness between personalities is a great tool but probably best used in therapy.
Be careful, hallucinogens can fix the mind and also destroy it.
When consumed in large doses it can cause a buoyant psychedelic effect, but with higher doses, intense euphoria and vivid imagination may occur as bizarre feelings of dissociation increase. With even higher doses, profound alterations in consciousness, speeding up of sensory input, and frank psychosis has been documented. The psychosis is often accompanied by feelings of panic or dread. Commonly seen at high doses of dextromethorphan are symptoms of restlessness, misperception, and hallucinations, similar to the effects of the hallucinogenic agent phencyclidine . Psychological symptoms include altered sense of time, paranoia, and disorientation, as well as tactile, visual, and auditory hallucinations similar to the symptoms seen with phencyclidine.1 Price and Lebel2 described a patient who “believed he had died and become just his thoughts.” This same patient described vivid visual hallucinations, the ability to “see in all four quadrants,” delusions of telepathy, and paranoid thoughts that others wanted to kill him.
Although resembling a typical schizophrenic psychosis, overdose with dextromethorphan has unique accompanying physical signs and symptoms that should alert the examining physician. If level of consciousness and vital signs are stable, the patient can be treated with antipsychotics until the psychosis resolves. Blood studies should include serum dextromethorphan levels. In more serious cases, where loss of consciousness, hypotension , or arrhythmias may occur, more extreme measures must be taken such as administration of intravenous fluids, vasopressors, anti-arrhythmics, and naloxone.

Why correlate dissacosiative disorders with dissacociative drugs? It's just a name they gave to it. In context they mean different things. The only thing I would form an opinion on is saying that the DXM can effect her emotions but not what personality she currently is. The majority of people are weird as fuck when they peak on DXM. Peaking on drugs like this makes a person psychotic .

Mindy Kaling and B.J. Novak have one of the most charming, adorable and at times baffling relationships in Hollywood. They dated until they didn’t, but remain so incredibly close that the world basically just wants them to call it a day and get hitched already. Kaling touches on their close friendship in her recent Amazon essay collection, Nothing Like I Imagined (Except for Sometimes) , explaining that Novak is much more social than she is (she suffers from at times crippling social anxiety ) and knows exactly how to push her buttons—but in the absolute best way.
Their friendship is so fascinating that they even got a book deal for it! Learn all about this adorable will-they-or-won’t-they pair, whether Novak could ever be Kaling’s husband,
Kaling and Novak met while filming and writing The Office in 2004 when they were both 24 years old. Almost immediately, they had as off-and-on a quasi relationship as their characters, Kelly Kapoor and Ryan Howard, had onscreen. Novak attempted to explain to Vulture in 2012, “We were never really dating, we were never really not dating. We didn’t know. No one knew. All you’d know for sure as that you’d always find one of us next to the other, even if we weren’t getting along.” He also noted that their characters began dating before they did and that Kelly and Ryan’s ups and downs were inspired by their own constant arguments.
Kaling says that their relationship is “weird as hell,” adding, “He is not my boyfriend, but he is not my best friend . I guess you could describe our relationship as a ‘romantically charged camaraderie with loud arguments,’ but I don’t think Facebook would accept this as a new status.”
She recalled to Vulture that they fell in love after working closely together in the writers’ room “and then dated on and off for a couple of years, and now we are just, like, best friends. Like, real best friends. It’s the kind of friendship you have when you are embedded with someone, that you can only get by putting in that insane amount of time with people.”
Kaling admitted in the essay “Lonely in LA” from her new Amazon book of essays that she was hoping to form a tight knit group of girlfriends when she moved to LA in 2005. Women she could watch rom-coms, shop and cry with. “Instead, I had B.J.” she revealed. “He is my genuine best friend, and actually pretty in touch with his feminine side, but he would never do any of that stuff. B.J. doesn’t have much social anxiety (I’ll get into that later), and he’d rather die than ride in a white limo, but for some reason he’s the person who gets me the most.”
Kaling revealed in 2015 that she and Novak actually grew up about 10 minutes away from one another, but didn’t meet until the show that made them both stars.
Novak recalled to The Guardian in 2016 that Kaling trolled him regularly at work. “She would lie to me. She would make up these – just out of nowhere – purposeless lies that I believed. Like saying that Allison Jones, the casting director of The Office , was also an actress who had been the third lead in Cold Mountain . And so I just thought that.”
He gave an example: “There was this director, this older woman who directed a couple of episodes, and Mindy told me I couldn’t tell anyone, but Greg Daniels, the showrunner, used to date this woman in college. And then Greg asked me what I thought of her cut and I lied to Greg and said I thought it was great, because I was nervous to insult his ex- girlfriend , so he didn’t make the edits that I wanted. And later I asked him about it and he was like, ‘What are you talking about? She’s 20 years older than I am, we didn’t go to college together!’ I realized that Mindy just made it up. It actually affected my work- life !”
Kaling hired Novak as a consulting producer on The Mindy Project and had him guest star in a 2013 episode in which he briefly dates Mindy before realizing he’s actually in love with his best friend. Novak told Entertainment Weekly , “I don’t know that it’s a direct analogy, but it’s definitely inspired by our relationship,” Novak replied. “We are pretty inseparable best friends with a lot of chemistry ourselves, and we’re not dating. Whenever we date anyone else, I think there’s a period where the person is very skeptical of our friendship: ‘Everyone seems to think you two might be a couple, and I don’t mean to get in the way. Are you sure you’re not dating? Are you sure you’re not going to end up dating?’ It’s such a common thing to have that platonic best friend that becomes a little weird when you start dating someone.”
@OfficeTally Mindy and I are soup -snakes.
— B.J. Novak (@bjnovak) January 29, 2013
Novak also joked that month that he and Kaling are “soup snakes,” a reference to when Michael Scott misread “soulmates” on The Office . Since then, they’ve referred to one another as “soup snakes” numerous times.
Kaling told Us Weekly of her big night out, “This is embarrassing, but I’m a really impatient person. I had my hair and makeup done, and I had my pal BJ deejaying. He’s my date tonight. We were listening to Nirvana and we drank a little.”
In a 2014 interview on The Howard Stern Show , Kaling said Novak broke her heart when he broke up with her when they were both 24.
“It was years and years ago that that breakup happened. I was so sad, not angry, sad.” Stern asked if she would have married Novak if he’d asked. “At the time? Yeah. I was 24. For the record, if anyone asked me to marry them, I would have said yes.” Still, she insisted they wouldn’t reunite romantically, explaining, “I love him, and I think he’s a great person, but I’m not holding a candle for B.J.”
For his part, Novak said in a Reddit AMA that he was closest to Kaling in terms of his colleagues from The Office .
“I was closest with Mindy Kaling, and also least close with Mindy Kaling, on a minute-by-minute basis. And I wouldn’t trade it for the world. Actually, I would trade it for the world. What am I talking about: I’d trade it for a more consistently positive relationship with Mindy Kaling. She’s the best.”

He also boasted to Bustle about his friendship and working relationship with Kaling, explaining that they argued the most but also allied with one another most in The Office writers’ room. “It’s really fun to be her BFF, it is less fun to work with her. Mindy knows exactly what she wants, which makes her a great artist, but it is less ideal to get what you want.”
He also noted how lovely her texts are. “It is a fantastic relationship with a lot of shorthand. I feel so lucky that I get a brilliant text from Mindy Kaling, like, once an hour. It’s like something you’d win at an auction — Mindy Kaling will blow up your phone!”
Novak posted a photo of a shopping cart on Instagram complete with a Boston magazine featuring Kaling on the cover while at a grocery store with his mom.

“It won’t be a tell-all about our relationship,” Kaling insisted to Vanity Fair . “We don’t know all that much about it. We are in the early stages and we just did a work session on it. I think it’s going to be great and funny, though.” She explained of working with Novak, “It’s kind of not hard. I worked with him for eight years on The Office and basically it was like going to college twice with him because we spent so many hours together at that show. So it’s not hard actually. The experience is like what it would be like if you went to college and grad school with somebody. You meet someone and quickly find out you are great at working with them. So you want to keep that going. We understand each other, so it makes working together easy. I love working with him.”
The same month, Novak honored Kaling for her birthday .
“Happy Birthday @mindykaling,” he wrote. “No amount of glamorous red carpet photos can ever cover up your truest and most wonderful self (though I understand why you usually go with those looks and not this one).”

“When people say that [they want us to get married or date], it makes me feel so cool,” Kaling told The Guardian . “Like, ‘Oh, people are thinking about me like I’m a character!’ We are so different and we fight a lot, but the gift [Novak] has always given me is the utter and total belief that I am one of the greats. And it is an intoxicating feeling.”
Kaling stopped by the launch of Novak’s app, The List.

In a 2016 interview with The Guardian , Novak admits he’d like to meet someone and eventually be a dad someday, but also speaks about his relationship and friendship with Kaling. “We’re very close in sort of a natural, eternal way,” he said. He also shared some silly texts they’d exchanged recently.
Novak reprised his role on The Mindy Project for the last time in an episode airing in November 2016. He told Glamour , “I was doubly happy to come back to The Mindy Project , but I never ask. It’s just not my style.”
As for his relationship with Kaling, he explained, “I think Mindy and I have broken every rule possible and still have maintained a connection. So I guess I’m either the worst person to ask for advice or I’m the best person to give some Zen advice that it will all just work out and don’t worry too much about rules and just worry about the quality of the person t
