Misc BDO - Is there really no getting the magic back?

As the title says... I've been using BDO for years. For most of that time I would dose once, sometimes twice in the evening. For years that helped keep both my addiction in check (mostly opioids) as well as my desire for other drugs. Late last year I start to increase my dose frequency, sometimes to start the day & then always in the evening. Unbeknownst to me that the magic really could be lost.

At the time I mostly figured at worst I'd build up a tolerance to it, & then I'd just have to ween down or abstain until I could go back to one dose in the evening. It truly breaks my heart that even with ~3 months abstinence, I really don't feel a thing anymore besides sedation, which can be helpful at times but a far cry from what I fell in love with.

I've used G in the past, but most of my experience is with BDO. I've been wondering if maybe some quality G might have some magic to it? Or am I now just truly doomed for the rest of my time on this earth?

Thanks in advanced :kisswink:
 
@justme6263 Essentially. Your body converts BDO to GHB, which makes it take longer to kick in, & generally lasts longer than GHB & GBL; roughly 3-5 hours.
 
@justme6263 Well then, if you find yourself with a large amount of any of these chems - keep your dosing down to 2x/day. It's when you increase the frequency of dosing that will kill the magic. As I said in my op, I dosed 1-2 times an evening for years without losing the magic (euphoria), and having 0 or very minimal WD's when I would go without for a few days.

Could be said for most things, I'd say. Generally, the longer you keep between doses, the better. If you're the type of person that can just wallop yourself twice a day, I envy you.
 
@drewbocop I wouldn't say I'd wallop myself twice a day. When I was disciplined with my dosing I'd use roughly ~3mL & sometimes redose ~2mL.

Do you have any insight on whether or not I'll ever be able to experience euphoria ever again with BDO/G?

I don't, man. Sorry. I've only used GBL/GHB and that was only a handful of times 15-20 years ago. Time is usually the only true solution, sadly. And even then, you'll never get that first time. Opioids certainly come to mind, I'd give anything to relive that first hydrocodone high in bed when I was a kid in such a state of euphoria I couldn't even move. FUCK!

That's why I love BDO & G so much. I could use the same dose every day & get the exact same effect (for years). Coming from 15+ years of all kinds of opioid abuse, this seemed like a genuine miracle as it also quashed all my desire for other chems. & I've ruined that, at least for now hopefully.
 
My guess is that extended abstinence could get the magic back. But, that it would then go away again much more quickly and easily.
