*all four of them

I think the exact number is in question because DXM is being sold as X at Raves. So people think they're taking X and their friends will say they've taken X when they're driven to the hospital, but it's really DXM. But the number is high enough that once people find out it's legal and it gets you high, more people will be taking it. And the theory is that there are none of the obvious "tells" like dilated pupils that you will see with X, so you can hide it from your parents easier. But I've been on cold pills, and if I had taken 30 of them, I'm pretty sure people would know something was wrong with me.
One of the girls in the article said she had tripped over 300 times on it with her bf and said she was becoming addicted. They stopped when they had a bad episode and got all paranoid and freaked out by how she was so thirsty that she ate snow.
