Hi, I got a nice bottle of ~200ml of liquid GBL, I have searched little, but most of the information I found sends me to GHB. Could someone help me on what's the best method to measure and take the drug (I assume inhale it?), what would be the recommend set & setting, and what to expect (never done any solvent-like drug).

Thanks.
 
Inhale it?! Oh my, no.

You're just going to want to drink it, make sure to mix it with a lot of juice or something because it's very corrosive and nasty tasting.

To measure it, you're just gonna need to get a pipette or blunt syringe, your local pharmacy should give these out for free.

For first dose, I wouldn't recommend more than 1ml. GBL can make you quite nauseous, especially on 1st time use. There's also some anecdotal evidence about how GBL doesn't really work properly the first couple of times you try it, and that it takes time to build up the enzymes or something (no idea the actual explanation for this), so be sure not to redose too much your first couple times, and work your doses up slowly. If your first dose of 1ml doesn't make you feel much, don't do more straight away, wait for it to wear off completely first (5 hours), then dose about 1.2ml and increase like that. Once you have some more experience using GBL, you'll be able to gauge how to dose more when already feeling the effect, but if you're a first time user, redosing will probably just result in you making yourself pass out.

Have fun =D it can be an awesome drug, just be aware of its dangers, both in terms of OD and addiction

do you have any more questions, or have you already done your research on effects, duration etc.?
 
^ this :)

GBL is converted into GHB into the blood and you need a particular enzyme to do this - some people have how levels of the enzyme so need to take GBL a few times before the amout of enzyme they have increases. I don't know if this is 100% fact or something I have aread a few times on here however and is late and my brain's not working properly...

Initially, waiting good 5 hours is good advice; even once you become experienced, redosing more often than every 1.5-2 hours can (and will) result in passig out!

Be aware that just like benzos, alcohol and other GABSAergic drugs there is the potential for addiction - which can be really nasty, needing 24/7 doses and with withdrawals similar to those from a benzo (search for the GBL addiction or withdrawal megathread in EADD - I would find it for you but am about to fall asleep..)
 
Worse withdrawals than benzos imo, and it happens far quicker.

To the OP: you really shouldn't be fucking around with GBL (or GHB or 1,4-BDO) if you don't even know the basics. Do your homework first, before you can't. I personally do not touch this stuff anymore, because no matter what, I always end up capping up every couple hours (or more) resulting in passing out in the most random places at the most random times, and you do the math.
