The GHB/GBL Addiction & Withdrawal Thread

Status
Not open for further replies.
I've done GBL on and off for near 2 years. The past month I've done pretty much 24/7, 15-20ml a day usually.

Ran out yesterday and spent hours wide awake, feeling like I was going loopy and sweating then feeling cold. Luckily found 5mg nitrazepam and for such a low dose it made me sleep as soon as it kicked him, I was exhausted I guess. I'm surprised such a low dose of benzos has dealt largely with my wd's - i'm almost 24 hours off GBL and feel ok. Well I feel quite crap but no severe physical wd's.

I'm glad I don't have any more benzos because on previous occasions I've taken large amounts and all its really done is delay withdrawal.

Time to maybe have a proper gaba break.
 
i wish it was still available in 125ml bottles. fuck buying 500ml+ that is going to land me in a world of pain as once i pop with GBL its 24/7 until the bottle is dry.
 
I only just found out its still a legal grey area, I just assumed it being a class C meant it couldn't be gotten a hold of anymore. I might have to try it, my friend used to love it.
 
oh and btw, valium is better than xanax imo, much prefer the long half life of valium that get rebound wds from xanax 6 hours later (maybe its because ive had addiction problems with both
Never had a rebound from xanax. Plus, it hits much harder than valium, and gives almost instant relief. Each to their own, though. :)
 
You guys think GBL use has dropped since it's illegal or not? I've still seen it being sold around the UK and on the street since it's just imported from GERMANY or summit. I think for people addicted should go for 50/100/250 amounts or summit. Dam those 500ml bottles!!

BTW: about my taper - last night 1.5mg XANAX to sleep - bang out till the morning and was late, only used pregs 2x 250mg and doing Oxy now. Been 50hr without G, funny thing is, I feel so good and motivated, riding my bike to college (16mi round trip) feeling hungry more to.

I'm about 30 hours clear of GBL, with only 5mg nitrazepam last night, and I'm starting to feel quite good too. Instead of just spending all day doing the same repetitive things on GBL, I feel motivated to do things.

ONly thing is I know by the weekend I'll have incredible boredom.

I've got off pretty damn lucky, my wd's don't really seem to get too much worse each time. Btw, I'm not sure if taking so many different drugs for G withdrawal is a great idea - you'd be better off just taking valium, tapering down, then going clean for a bit.

I think alcohol gives me more trouble than GBL really. If I stay clear of booze, GBL wd's can be very managable. If I was to drink a lot just now, I'd wake up tomorrow with really tight neck, depersonalisation, headache etc. Then again, I don't wake up immediately wanting alcohol, I do wake up immediately wanting G though (if its in the house).Time for a proper gaba detox.

Xanax leaves the system too quickly and isn't great in gaba withdrawal. Valium is much smoother and easy to taper.
Well, in my opinion, valium doesn't touch the sides during a raging withdrawal. Yes xanax leaves the system quicker, and you need to redose, but the relief is far greater.
 
*snip* GBL *snip*

*snip* GHB *snip* as he's only done G.

No need to SWIM on BL Tony.

Your post is kinda off topic, this is the addiction and withdrawal thread and sourcing chat is not allowed here or in any other threads - hence why I've edited your post!

Btw welcome and please familiarise yourself with the forum rules :)
 
about 28 hours after last dose, things can only get better now, i swear i have visuals (probably not sleeping, still annoying though, one thing that gives me alot of releif is a bit of execerise, makes me really loosen up after.

Hang in there buddy it'll be worth the shit ride things will get easier.

I had work today and had horrible withdrawals, heart palpitations, shakes, could hardly talk properly, sweating lots etc.

Weird that last year I done it much more for months at a time and was nothing this bad at all ever. I've only been doing it for 5 days and this happens, I only got 90 minutes sleep last night due to having to look after my ill girlfriend then getting a dopamine rebound or whatever it is... then work at 6:30, maybe that contributed to it.

Is this normal? I've been dosing every few hours usually but stop at night for a good 9+ hours (apart from last night).

Got home about 45 minutes ago and had around 2ml (normal dose) to try an taper off it because planning to stop for a while already, felt so scatty when I got in needed to calm down. I thought lowering the doses over a day or two is more safe?

EDIT: Staying around my girlfriends tonight an tomorrow for a while away from temptation, hopefully have just the one dose if I need. :)

If you're taking 9+ hours off a night without much of an issue, then I don't think you'll be too bad. Tapering works for some - never for me, though. If you managed a day at work without freaking out, then I'd say you're not in for a rough ride. Have a few drinks tonight, and see if it takes off the edge.
 
Well I was freaking out at work that's why I came on here panicking. :) hahah!

Only other time I felt so bad was after a fat mephedrone binge minus bailing (or is it balling? or wailing?) my eyes out, I didn't know GBL withdrawals were like this and it's so comparable for some reason, it's put me right off. Last time I just got really bad anger problems, couldn't sleep etc. Maybe they weren't proper GBL withdrawals.

My boss asked me to get her two envelopes and I could hardly grab them properly ended up lobbing them on the floor while I sort of chased after them like a malfnctioning robot but then gave up halfway, then my head went all fuzzy (like when Cloud on FF7 when the screen flashes white an fuzzy) and almost ran out the room crying because I was scatting out so much. Luckily I know her well so she just said try rest when I get home. :\

Anyway I type too much...

I'll have a few drinks though, fuck tapering down I think it's just an excuse for me not to give it up yet.
